Thanks for everyone for tuning in. It was a pleasure making the show. Thanks to all the great artists who made the tracks, they are fabulous! Also thanks to mxb, the renoise scripting wizard, for dusting off his old CDJ’s and spinning some nice dance music before the show. Special thanks to everyone from Renoise IRC for being a great audience, hope you all had great time!

Albums of Notablity

This time we had two excellent albums to play on the show. These are all free  to download and very much enjoyable.

Mister Electric Demon – In Troubles

A nice chillout/idm release from totally awesome Renoise producer Mister Electric Demon. 7 tracks of dreamy textures and relaxed soundscapes with some occasional more experimental sounds thrown in here and there.

Totally a release worth to check out. It’s available on bandcamp on pay-what-you-want basis. Yes, you can pay 0 as well, and get the release for free, but sure we appreciate his music enough to throw him few bucks for his efforts!

Darkhalo – A Million Drops

Other great chillout release comes from Darkhalo. This one is specially amazing. Lot of beautiful amtospheres and soundscapes mixed with beats and awesome basslines. The release packs 13 tracks of truely great music.

This one is available for completely free. Go listen to it in soundcloud. Or directly download the 320 kbps mp3s from here.

The year just started, and we already have so good releases available for free download. All the artists will have really high bar set up for them to get anywhere near the Album of The Year title from me.

Hoheitsgewaesser & Himmelreichsfleisch – Gleisstoerung EP

Released just a few hours after the show aired I present the Hoheitsgewaesser & Himmelreichsfleisch – Gleisstoerung EP, also known as EP That Nobody Can Pronounce Unless German™.

This is what the label says about this one: After years of producing underground for private music partys, Hoheitsgewaesser & Himmelreichsfleisch unleashes a beast. Rhytmic madness and a sweet amount of deepness keep your feet dry while you brake the speed of sound. Under Water.

Also available for free under WDRSTND label.

Kaizoku

Lots of time has passed since last show again. Lots of things happened during this period. Including the crash of my computer which put things off for some time. Even now I had technical problems which delayed the broadcast for an half an hour and made me go live with a bit unfinished set.  Sorry for the low volume on voiceover and some glitches in mixing. Going to be lot better next time!

Tracklist

1. Ankst – The Wicked (Damnation Remix by Cyvergence)
2. Kaizoku – Something In Blood
3. S-Wrong – Everybody Pump
4. Modlys – Det Nu (breakcore remix)
5. Sodiufas – Shhhhhhhhhhhh(h)
6. Saine – Rocket Science
7. D Fast – Liquid Cool
8. Braintwister – Identity Matrix
9. Beatslaughter – Frozen Dawn
10. Transient – Deep Robot
11. Keith303 – Thumbworker
12. Vivace – Zaaderdag
13. Amok – Endless Autumn

Renoise 2.6 has gone to beta

This show also celebrates the Renoise 2.6 going into beta. This time the tracker gets the long awaited scripting and extension capabilities. Lots of people are working on this right now, playing with the available tools and writing new ones. If you haven’t already, join the fun in Renoise forums.

Renoise also got a Long Sample Support (aka Autoseek) which makes it much easier to handle vocal takes, guitar riffs or any other kind of longer sound clips. The samples are still kept in the memory so one still can’t mix whole recording sessions, but this is not what renoise is meant for anyway.

As an interesting sidenote, Remixta is also broadcast and recorded using Renoise 2.6, it is used in the chain as effect processor and for mixing voiceover and the music. The bit unfortunate configuration this time was not the fault of Renoise (which performed perfectly) but my own misconfiguration due to limited time before going live.

Saine

Soundcloud

Soundcloud has grown to be the most important music distribution place for Renoise users. Many artists in this show have lots of great stuff up in the SoundCloud.

Saine for example, who Released one of the greatest Renoise albums “Break a Pattern” some time ago, has soundcloud page which has gained several new sets in last months.

From the set Elevator Music I played the track “Rocket Science”. The set has lots of nice downtempo dub-technoish music to Chill To. And yeah. It’s all free.

He also has just recently compiled another set Still Life which has more ambient, soundscape music.

Sodiufas has also a nice collection of tracks available on Soundcloud. This is where I acquired one of his latest tracks, Shhhhhhh. Although most of us now Sodiufas by his great ambient melodic soundscapes, this time he surprises us with more industrial and much more rougher sounding creation. Some people find this track bit irritable and disturbing, I find it pleasantly hairy and exciting. The dynamics and soundscapes could even be compared to the ones created by the grand master mr_mark_dollin on his Smargaid Maerd albums.

Talking about mr_mark_dollin, he has recently made his  albums available on Bandcamp for purchase. I wanted to play some of his tracks too on that occasion, but lost all of them due to hardware crash, and didn’t feel like purchasing them again. Which doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do that.
