Sequences Magazine

Finally, we are pleased to present our June podcasts following my family commitments. There has undoubtedly been a backlog of new music to review. With several weeks to catch up, we are now releasing a double edition that encompasses a diverse range of electronic music genres. Part 2 is our customary three-hour edition, split into two sections: the first is more relaxed, and the second part introduces significantly darker soundscapes.

We are currently somewhat delayed in releasing our regular podcasts due to the need to review numerous promotional materials and organize biographies. In the meantime, we invite you to enjoy some of the extensive catalogue of an underrated UK musician now based in Berlin whose career spans over four decades: Michael Neil. He has released more than 70 solo albums and contributed to various other projects as a band member of Curious Egg, Retrochet, RKM, and Logothetis Ensemble, collectives that we established merely a month prior.

SEQUENCES PODCAST No 287
This edition explores two halves. The first half features layered melodic harmonics that create rich sonic textures and vivid musical images, as heard in recent releases by Hollan Holmes, Thaneco, and Billy Yfantis. The second half invites us into a world of ambient and experimental sounds, sometimes glowing warmly with organic spaciousness, as heard in the music of Steve Roach/Serena Gabriel, Zorza, and Forest Fang, contrasted with the raw atmospheres of Penelope Trappes, Agnes Haus, and Electronic Death Black Dogs. Additionally, it highlights the minimalist modular style of Ian Boddy's Serge Works and the surreal, abstract electroacoustic sound worlds of Natasha Barrett.

These days, we often hear sad news of cherished musicians in our community passing away. To honour Serge Devadder, who left us in March, we’ve selected a song from his 2018 album “Taxon,” which immerses listeners in a captivating blend of acoustic sounds and creativity.
