 E-News 1367 – April 28th 2024 Dear customers, friends, followers and supporters. On the 26th of April 2 years ago Klaus Schulze left this world. One of the most influential musicians for me. His music is interwoven in mine. Each track has some of his influences. 2022 was a strange year when we lost also Vangelis / Mark Shreeve and Manuel Göttsching. 3 of the founders of my music. Edgar Froese left many years before and another influence Keith Emmerson is also no more. We live in a fast world, it turns faster and faster, But during these days that they left us it seems to slow down. The background noise is less. A time to listen to music and breath slower, deeper and perhaps even more free!! That is what now these great musicians give me. Their music makes me whole. (ron boots).

| New Entries We added 30 + Titles to the catalog. To many to focus on seperatly the list would be very long. So here my highlights and all others you can find on the first 2 pages in the shop!! https://www.groove.nl/shop/?v=796834e7a283 Keep in mind of many we only have 1 copy instock and gone is gone. ========================================================== Callisto – Either Side of Reality https://www.groove.nl/shop/callisto-either-side-of-reality/?v=796834e7a283  David Wright and Stephan Whitlan combine as Callisto to produce electronic music inspired by Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze and Vangelis. The stunning new album presents 68 minutes of powerful, melodic and sequencer driven electronic music laced with atmospheric ambience. Above all it will have fans of traditional Berlin School electronic music in raptures. And fans of the two musicians and Callisto are clearly gonna love it too. Just as with the first collaboration (The Reflecting Sky), Callisto – Either Side of Reality came from a series of improvised sessions at David Wright’s Suffolk studio between 2022 and 2023. This time however, the duo decided to continue as ‘Callisto’. The music is a combination of powerhouse sequencing, searing leads and atmospheric ambient music. Either Side of Reality continues the vision of the original line up of David Wright and Dave Massey in combining traditional 70’s style electronic music with 21st Century sensibilities. Accordingly the duo pay a passing nod to the more established luminaries of the genre. ‘Either Side of Reality’ is another original and sophisticated slice of powerhouse instrumental music. And the album has already been described by listeners as “an enjoyable trip down Berlin School memory lane – an enjoyable and fun album”. It clearly reflects the musical vision and expertise of both artists. David’s digital approach and production expertise combine with Steffan’s analog skills but with a clear intent of the collaboration metamorphosing into something completely new. ========================================================== AE van Elst Projects – Two https://www.groove.nl/shop/ae-van-elst-projects-two/?v=796834e7a283 CD with MP3 download / MP3 and Flac download.  ABOUT AE van Elst Projects Both brothers Arjan and Eelco have been involved with electronic music from an early age. Their desire to share their music with fans of electronic music resulted in this latest album to be released on Groove. The songs have the emphasis on atmospheric instrumental themes. A characteristic of their way of composing is that they often start with a single sound, for example a preset from a synthesizer or sample. Other sounds are added, ultimately resulting in a full-fledged composition. The music of AE van Elst Projects is created with both analog synthesizers and virtual instruments; combining old school with the latest developments in synthesizer world.
