This week I must apologize beforehand because nearly all the bands in this podcast were found at remarkable German or Dutch language websites and I am embarrassingly ill-equipped to translate their content.
It's a small thing in that the music speaks eloquently enough to make up for my shortcomings. We'll hear Electronica from Coma Research, Base-Box, Izmar, Mabafu and Sans Edge.
From the Coma Research EP on the Politicide net-label here is 'Proving Ground.
van Aaken and Johannes Donner are Base-Box This is 'K'
more at base-box.de Now for some Dutch Bossa by Izmar There is more from Izmar at Monotonik This is German producer Mabafu's ghostly dub. It's called 'Losing Yourself'
Look to net label sofasound.de for more Mabafu Here is Sans Edge and 'Torn' Although based in the US and some recent helpful correspondence, Sans Edge remains tantalizingly enigmatic. That was 'Torn'.
Listen for his full catalog at soundclick.com/SansEdge For more on this podcast including show notes, scripts and links to the artists as well as the band Idyllic, log on to www.idyllicmusic.com with archives at idyllicmusic.blogspot.com.
