Season 18 of the Spacemusic podcast on the horizon…
— A Fascinating World of Sound!!
Ambient and Electronic Entertainment since 2005, hosted by TC. Free listening and support plans available at Ambient Zone website, Patreon and Apple podcasts.
What a year it has been … war in the headlines, rising prices, constant confusion, worries about health, and an ongoing sense of uncertainty that never quite left us.
As the year comes to an end, this episode feels like a pause before a deep breath. It’s built entirely from music—no talk, no explanations, created to support the dreams we’re holding and the ones still forming.
We start to picture what could come next. A new year. New chances. The same dream, a little clearer now. We stand at the edge of it, ready to move forward, knowing we don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. It’s about feeling what’s possible. As the music continues, we look ahead.
Featuring: Giulio Aldinucci, Blochemy, Zerosummer, Rudy Adrian, Nico Less, Ancient Astronaut & Brannan Lane, James Osland, Xu, Monogoto, Ai Yamamoto
“We survived the noise of the world, so we end the year in sound—letting music carry our dreams into what comes next”
UPDATE – 20260115: First 10 years have been saved! — Spacemusic Archives is online: Season 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 are included in one RSS feed. Check Apple podcasts and search for ‘Spacemusic’. You can’t miss it. Free listening of course.
Huge Thanks: Patrons and Members that made extra donations, you know who you are 🙂
(Edited) – As of January 2026: Spacemusic Seasons 1 through 9 will no longer be available. Due to a ridiculous price increase implemented by Libsyn, I am forced to pull the plug. It is no longer financially sustainable.
The seasons will no longer be represented in Apple Podcasts – Google Podcasts has been unavailable for some time already, as Google discontinued its Podcast service in the summer of 2024.
The website – Spacemusic.nl – will also be revamped. The site will remain online in a limited form but will no longer display RSS data.
The appeal I made during the last Spacemusic podcast 12.17 remains unanswered unfortunately, I’m afraid that – with more financial shifts coming in 2026 – I have no other choice.
Thanks to Libsyn, who launched a fantastic service back then. Now, unfortunately, it’s been swallowed up by the madness called “inflation” — the madcap mill of financial destruction on this planet.
Still, looking positively to the future, with new shows I will bring you!

We had a lovely launch of the show yesterday! At first I was a bit sceptic about the Patreon ‘drop’ feature, I’m much more positive at the moment. I set the new show there, to launch at a certain time ; once the countdown was done, the show started playing. Everyone was able to listen in sync and chat at the same time. A bit like Bandcamp listening parties!
I will do this again in January 2026. And I would like our members here, to create a Patreon account if you don’t have one already. You can set up a free account, for my Patreon page. As soon as I set a new drop for a new podcast, you’ll get notified, and you can join the listening party together with all Patrons and Ambient Zone Members!
My suggestion is to head over to https://patreon.com/ambientzone and check if you already have an account / create one (free).
Questions? Post comments here.
Cheers!

The final Spacemusic podcast episode of the year 2025 is offered as a quiet drift into deep space…
“TC curates his most atmospheric selections—super Space music, super Ambient soundscapes designed to slow time and open wide sonic horizons”
The music is given room to breathe, with long passages where sound itself becomes the message. Words are kept intentionally sparse, it’s with warmth and appreciation for the long-running connection between the show and its listeners. The focus remains on the experience of listening, on allowing these expansive soundscapes to carry the audience beyond the everyday and into something more reflective and otherworldly, in subtle Christmassy style.
Featuring: Banco de Gaia, Christian Samsara, Aes Dana, KapTep, Formant Value, Cosmic Cadence, Rudy Adrian, Sacred Seeds, Martin Nonstatic, Aural Planet, Le Code & KapTep, Children of the Bong, Giulio Aldinucci, Pangaea Projekt.
Hi there folks, wanted to share an e-mail with you from the Libsyn base, where this podcast adventure once started back in 2005 …
It boils down to the files hidden behind Seasons 1-9 (plus some other loose files due to various storage improvisations over the years). I’ve been paying $5 a month for this since I left the podcast publishing platform, so that would have been around 2015. No files have been added since then, only the retention of the previous seasons.
Today I received an email from Libsyn: a 60% price increase coming. Here’s the reason:
“This change helps us continue delivering features that grow your audience and earning potential, while expanding the tools you already have access to, like Multi-user Management, Automatic Podcast Ads, PodRoll, integrated YouTube publishing, and the entire Libsyn publishing platform”
Today we travel to a point where innovation accelerates beyond expectation, where artificial intelligence and human imagination converge. The Singularity isn’t a storm of machines rising above us—it’s a horizon of possibility shaped by our choices, our creativity, and our humanity.
Right now, the world can feel strange—like we’re drifting into something unfamiliar, almost becoming less human in the rush of automation and constant connection. It’s easy to feel lost in the noise, to wonder where our place is amid the algorithms and data streams. But this moment is exactly when our individuality matters most.
In this episode, the soundscape explores the pulse of circuitry and the breath of the human heart. You’ll hear textures born from code, harmonies sculpted by hands, and rhythms that remind us that progress is not about replacing people, but empowering them. Technology can amplify our voices and expand our dreams, but only if we stay present and awake.
Featuring: Gleisberg, Binja, oRlawren, Aetopus, KapTep, Afterlife, Mike Beever, Cosmic Cadence, Dicabor, Epigenetics, Recue, Pat Keista, Ludvig Cimbrelius, Umlaut.
Life moves in cycles — natural, steady, and always shifting. We’re born, we grow, we learn, we let go. Seasons change, relationships evolve, and even our emotions move in waves.
Nothing stays still, and that’s what keeps us alive.
In this episode, we’ll explore how life’s cycles shape us — how endings can open space for beginnings, and how renewal often hides in the quiet moments of change.
The healing music you’ll hear is meant to guide you through reflection and release, helping you reconnect with the natural flow of life. Take a breath. You’re exactly where you need to be — right in the middle of your own beautiful cycle.
There’s something magical about the road that leads you home — the hum of the engine, the blur of landscapes, and that one perfect song playing through the speakers. This show is a journey through time, memory, and melody.
The rush of youth, the ache of nostalgia, the joy of return. Between songs, reflections flow — on roads once traveled, loves once lost, and futures never planned. The weather shifts like mood swings — sunlight breaking through rain, echoing the unpredictable rhythm of life itself.
Spacemusic 17.10 is a show for dreamers, wanderers, and anyone who’s ever felt the pull of a familiar skyline on the horizon. Expect surprises, laughter, and maybe a tear or two as melodies guide you home — not just to a place, but to a feeling. Return Home is your invitation to travel through sound, emotion, and memory… and rediscover the music waiting within you.
This September, I return to the Hoeksche Waard in the Netherlands, the countryside where my childhood unfolded between wide skies, endless dikes, and fields that seemed to stretch forever. It was here that I first learned to listen—to the wind brushing through tall grasses, to the creak of bicycles on narrow roads, to the soft chorus of birds at dawn. Coming back now, I see a land that has changed. Farms feel more modern, villages are busier, and even the quiet has a different texture.
And yet, walking these familiar paths, I feel the same spark that first drew me to sound. Every rustle, every echo, every subtle shift in the landscape carries rhythm. These fragments are what I bring into my work—into the ambient, electronic worlds I share through the podcast.
The Hoeksche Waard will always be the space of my childhood, but it is also the space of my renewal. By blending memory with today’s sounds, I’ve compiled music by artists that feels both rooted and forward-looking. Change doesn’t unsettle me—it fuels me. As long as I can weave these textures into something magical, I know I will not just endure, but thrive.
