Podcast: finances
July & August – always a party to receive the bills. Professional podcasting is not for free … as you can see 😉 And thanks to our listener support I can ‘manage’ to pay most things… Prices have gone up everywhere, our listening plans stayed the same. So there’s more money going out than coming in sometimes ? … Ooops!

July 2022 … When I was 12 I bought a record called ‘Constellations’. Turns out it was gonna be one of my most played records! Filed under ‘synthesizer’ back in the days, this music has become a soundtrack to my life and it still has that magic. Big thanks to Peter Kommers, Ruud van Es and Rob Papen for releasing music as PERU. Today we play it on vinyl … the original sound!
In Man vs Machine we get to the challenge: to be or not to be? And how to approach? As humans or robots? You decide. We provide. This episode is a mind blowing adventure into deep lush electronic soundscapes, harmonies, contradictions, freshness, darkness and a surprising twist!
June 2022 … There’s a storm outside and you might wonder, what it’s all about. What if we only think and believe that what we hear is true. What if this is simply called ‘Life’? Why not live it? Take a deep breath, here’s the perfect soundtrack to visualize.
Here’s the moment to sit down and relax …. no shouting, no news, no media. Where people meet music and music boosts the people. Interested? Tune in for ‘Essentials’ for pure listening pleasure in the ambient, soundscape, instrumental, new world music genre.
May 2022 … Because it’s the charm, when you sit down for 20mins and tune in deep. Then decide for side B… yet have another 20mins of entertainment. Its about the whole thing, the relation between the listener and the record / cover. Which is an irreplaceable experience. Welcome to Sessions VINYL.
