Sessions V. // Land & Sea

Land anchors us. It holds our roots, our homes, our histories. It’s where we plant seeds, build dreams, and trace the paths of those who came before. The sea, in contrast, calls us away. It whispers of freedom, of discovery, of what lies beyond the horizon. It invites us to drift, to dive, to dare. Waves wash away certainty and offer the thrill of the unknown.

Strip away the noise of modern life, and what remains is simple and profound: land and sea. Soil and salt. The ground we claim, and the water that won’t be tamed. They are not just places. They are parts of us. In the end, everything returns to this: where we stand, and where we are drawn. Land and Sea. The eternal balance of belonging and becoming.

Today’s Sessions podcast episode is blending the richness of nature with the mysteries of the ocean. It explores how both realms shape culture, survival, and imagination. The contrast between solid ground and fluid waters creates a dynamic backdrop for storytelling. This theme invites listeners to reflect on the deep connection between humanity and the natural world.

Sessions IV. // Dark to Light

There is no clear path sometimes when it comes to health. Symptoms can be quite difficult to trace back to the cause. In my case we still haven’t become much wiser, except that painful spots have persisted for a few months now. In this show I focus on a shift from darkness to light. I pray for better times and today’s magical mix is very supportive. I hope it will do you good too, enjoy!

S17.04 Heaven & Earth

Have you ever wondered why the universe never ends? How Heaven and Earth came into being? Where are we all going? And why it seems like a bit of a mess these days? I think today’s broadcast can shed some light on a few things… I have a musical journey ready for you with capital letters, that might help you to get answers to questions you have. Because when you are here on Earth, it is nice that you can enjoy many beautiful things that are there.

Even though it sometimes seems like a circus out there … (which it essentially is) … in all that chaos there is still room for beauty, if you only want to see, hear and feel it. A journey that you can start today! Or if you are already on your way, you can deepen it. I reflect on my health and what I do not see but is definitely there: forces that can influence us humans, if we are willing to stand up to them.Framed with beautiful sounds from very prominent artists! Happy Easter / Kaló Páscha!

Spread the Word

Every now and then … I say to myself: what a blessing it is to create this show. I’m grateful that there’s Patrons and Members that support everything I do. At the same time I look at the amount of Patrons and I say: this needs to grow.

It’s not that hard, is it? Finding 50 – 100 people or more world wide that want to support Ambient Zone? It turns out it is. Sometimes a Patron leaves, sometimes one joins. This is fine, but we need growth…..

Financial tough times for all of us, both creator and listener. The costs for making the show and living expenses have not exactly decreased. I’m doing my best but I still have to see if I can continue to do this full-time. It depends on the support on Ambient Zone and Patreon. So if you want to help me? Please do!

Share the link below with your friends, family, socials, e-mails, websites, chats etc:

https://ambient.zone/patreon

This can help a lot to get the growth back. We have to do this together! And then I think we will end up in very cool places. Places where audio and video podcasts can be made, where the concept of ‘Ambient’ can come to life to the fullest, with an unprecedentedly nice community that goes for it and can prepare for a new online environment with more shows, more features and more valuable information and interaction.

Thanks in advance!

Sessions III. // Stages of Life

Looking back in time, remembering what it was like as a child, what we dreamed, how we played, what we liked back then. As we get older, I think we do this more and more often. Sometimes to check if we are still who we are, if we are still on track.

During our younger years, we actually already know what we really like! And this can help understand how we became afterwards. Or are there perhaps still unfulfilled dreams and wishes?

In this episode I take you on a journey through time and music, with a calmness around us that is quite unique in 2025. Just look at the world at the moment … do you think that is reality? What is being poured out on us, that it is human and good for us? Time to recognize gaps and expand our awareness.

Patreon Migration

Per June 1st 2025 – our Patreon Page wil have migrated to monthly billing. That’s right! No longer our Patrons can support us per creation. It’s because of Apple’s monthly subscription billing model: Patreon is forced to migrate all Creators that are still on a ‘per creation billing’. Our Patrons will be kept informed through my Patreon page regarding this transition.

Unfortunately, there’s no other choice but to ‘go with it’. Apple rules. And the decision by Patreon to follow their orders. Otherwise they risk being kicked out of the App Store.

Personally,  I don’t remember ever signing a piece of paper that said I had to comply with App Store policies. Here’s the nuance that worries me. The big boy Tim Cook who ultimately forces me to agree to his policies , while I am on the Patreon platform. Let’s keep quiet about that; as long as we do realize how the game is played.

Existing Patrons: it will be fine. We (Ambient Zone and Patreon) are doing our best to make the transition as smooth as possible and you will ultimately notice little of it. Myself on the other hand, will notice a lot of it. Apple will take a sloppy 30% of my income from new Patrons who sign up via the Patreon iOS app. Because that’s how it’s done of course. You know. Apple. They need the money, so why even bother discussing it.

Advise: NEW Patrons – please do sign up through your web browserhttps://patreon.com/ambientzone ) instead of the iOS app. This way your pledge will go to me, not Apple. After you’ve signed up through the web, your free to use the Patreon iOS app, that will not affect my income – little effort, great pleasure! Thanks.

Sessions II. // Breathworks

Life is like a balance, sometimes one thing happens, then another. As humans we feel best when things are in balance but this is not always easy. I think we all know that! The most important tool we all have is breathing. I

n times of stress we breathe differently, often high and uncomfortable. In times of joy this is easier and feels much better. The deeper we breathe, the better it is and the easier it is to achieve and maintain balance.

Example: What if you wake up at night and start to worry or feel restless? And if you notice that your breathing is short, high and unpleasant, you can do something about it. In this episode of Sessions I will focus on our breathing and the music of course. How Breathworks and Music really works!
