As previously posted on December 3rd, as of January all episodes of the Spacemusic podcast, 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. This means that after approximately 20 years, I will unfortunately have to take drastic measures: the RSS feeds for Spacemusic Seasons 1-9 and all audio files included, will go offline starting in January 2026.

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 any RSS data.

The appeal I made during the last Spacemusic podcast 12.17 remains unanswered;  I’m a little disappointed with the enthusiasm as I secretly expected to receive a few emails from enthusiastic diehards who want to preserve history and make a clear financial gesture. Unfortunately, it remains quiet until the day I publish this.

Ambient Zone simply can’t afford the costs any longer. Therefore, we have to take this measure.

Spacemusic Season 1-9 …. It was my pleasure to host it for the past 20 years. 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.

Looking positively to the future, let’s count what we’ve got left!
