SOUNDWAVETim McManusToday’s guest deejay is Tim McManus, the had honcho of Island House Recordings, a little label based on a little island in the East river, Roosevelt Island, NYC.
How did I cross paths with Tim, you ask? Oh, the usual circuitous route.
A few years back, Stefan Beck, who moonlights as Golden Brown, took over the turntables on Soundwave (you can check out Stefan’s mix here). I asked him who might be keen to share a mix on an upcoming show, and without missing a beat, he recommended Tim. Stefan said he curious to hear what Tim put...

SOUNDWAVEGarek DrussToday’s guest deejay is Garek Druss.
I met Garek through Mkl Anderson, AKA, Drekka, when I asked Mike who he thought would share a mix on Soundwave (listen to Mkl’s mix here). I trust Mkl without question, but all the same, I gave a listen to some of Garek’s work and was instantly won over. So of course I extended an invasion to Garek and I was not disappointed.
Garek describes himself as a a Los Angeles based artist who’s work explores the balance and sometimes friction between the physical being and the...

SOUNDWAVEMax WürdenToday’s guest deejay is Max Würden.
I discovered Max on one of my deep dives on Spotify. It was Max’s Format that captured my imagination. The album is warm and wistful. It feels like a ray of luxurious sunshine on a cold winter day. I don’t know. It’s subjective. Maybe you’d get something different from your listening experience, but that’s what it was like for me.
Max is known for diverse soundscapes and soundtrack production . Proficient as a drummer, he crafts sounds from silence. His works span various awards, inclu...

We have Mark Trecka to thank for today’s show. After Mkl Anderson, AKA Drekka, shared a mix with us (listen to it here), I asked him who he knew would want to guest deejay on Soundwave, and he highly recommended Mark.

After hearing Electronic Death Black Dogs’ Hinterland album and discovering it was yet another excellent release from Winter-Light, I took it as a hint from the universe that I should invite the label’s founder to guest deejay on Soundwave.

I’ve known tttlllrrr for over a decade. I may have met him through Solipsistic Nation, my electronic music show.
I was immediately impressed with tttlllrrr’s pluck. He had a vision for a genre of music that hadn’t existed yet called Magicore, a mélange of metal, electronic dance music, video-game music, and Japanese pop music. Through his Magicore blog and mixes (here are ttwo you can listen to), tttlllrrr willed magicore into existence, which is in itself an act of magic. So tttlllrrr’s pretty cool.

One of the delights of Soundwave is the people I continue to meet through the guest deejays that appear on the show. Take Mkl. I met Mkl through Raziel Panic after the last mix he shared on Soundwave. Raziel highly recommended Mkl. There was no doubt that I would invite Mkl to share a mix with us, but that didn’t stop me from spending a delightful afternoon experiencing his music.
I’m still emotionally processing Mkl’s mix. I know that sounds pretentious as hell, so hear...

Writing today’s show notes was a head trip. Carmen shared his first mix for Soundwave three years ago. That’s not a significant amount of time, but it feels like it. That was our first pandemic summer. You never knew if your next visit to the grocery store was going to be the one that exposed you to COVID and could kill you. Three years later and we’ve gotten along with our lives. Yes, COVID is still a threat, but now it’s manageable. Yes, we’ve all been changed...

I could have sent Cole an invitation to guest deejay on Soundwave without listening to a note of his music. I trust Yann’s taste in music and artists that much. But of course, I listened to Cole’s music. Yann was spot on.

As it happens, both Tim and I are fellow devotees of the Excursions in Ambience compilation album series (listen to my Excursions in Ambience compilation retrospective here). That may explain why Tim’s mix, which features songs completely new to me, feels so familiar. It’s a deligh...

I was introduced to Hekla through the kind folks at Phantom Limb (listen to their mix for Soundwave here). Hekla is known for her explorations into the depths of sound, blending influences from her Icelandic roots with experimental electronic sounds. Her album, Á, was breath taking, as is her more recent album, Xiuxiuejar, both of which I encourage you to experience.
In her mix for Soundwave, Hekla takes us on a journey through the themes of nature, spirituality, and human connection. Her selection of songs includes works by the Estonian com...

No, it’s because Sam has been running Projekt and releasing breathtaking music for nearly 40 years!

Her second mix was cozy and intimate. Sasha, as Robocat, shared anthemic bangers to celebrate Pride on her third mix for Soundwave.

There were a few slots open, and I decided to do retrospective mixes featuring music from the Ambient Dub, Excursions In Ambience, and From Here To Tranquility compilation albums.

I would have extended an invitation to Hessel based solely on Harrold’s word. However, listening to Hessel’s albums on his Bandcamp page merely confirmed Harrold’s regard for Hessel’s music.

Yann guest deejayed on Soundwave last year, and it’s a delight to have him back on the show. And it’s not just because his mix is utterly fantastic, but because today’s show reminds me that I’ve known Yann since 2009 when I showcased his label, Dragon’s Eye Recordings, on solipsistic NATION.

I met Sean through Steve Targo (listen to his mix for Soundwave here). I asked Steve who he thought would share a mix on Soundwave, and he recommended Sean, who runs the Inner Islands music label. I spent an afternoon listening to some of the music from Sean’s label. Wonderful stuff! I sent out an invitation to guest deejay on Soundwave, toot suite.
Sean also records under under the names Ashan and Channelers, and is in the duo Skyminds with Michael Henning.

SOUNDWAVEJacob NewmanToday’s guest deejay is Jacob Newman.
When I launched Soundwave, I had no plans beyond releasing a weekly show dedicated to ambient, classical, experimental, and instrumental music to help cope with the stress and isolation of the stay-at-home self-quarantine during the first few months of the pandemic. If I had a plan, it was that I would wrap up the show once COVID-19 was reasonably under control. Soundwave will have fulfilled its purpose.
Week after week, I’ve shared fantastic mixes from guest deejays who are musicians, deejays, label owners, writers, etc. Each show is d...

SOUNDWAVEShad MarshToday’s guest deejay is Shad Marsh.
Shad shared a mix on Soundwave a few years back. Today he shares a mix no less remarkable. His mix explores immersion and isolation.
I’m writing this in the evening from my kitchen table. My patio door is open, and there’s a perfect cool breeze. Shad’s mix is playing in the background, and it feels like an ode to spring. I hope my neighbors are enjoying Shad’s mix as music as I do.
Shad lives in the mountains of western North Carolina. His radio...

SOUNDWAVECity of DawnToday’s guest deejay is Damien Duque, AKA City of Dawn.
I met Damien through Kévin Séry, AKA From Overseas, who was our guest deejay back in July. Kévin spun a gorgeous mix. Afterward, I asked Kévin who he thought would want to share a mix on Soundwave, and he highly recommended Damien. After dipping into Damien’s catalog on Bandcamp, I understood why. Damien captures that dreamy, post-rock sound I love that creates ambient drone soundscapes. Wonderful stuff.
Damien’s mix for today’s show is no less extraordinary.

SOUNDWAVEJustin BroadrickToday’s guest deejay is Justin Broadrick.
Justin is a singer and songwriter best known as a founding member of the band Godflesh, which combined metal and industrial music. Justin is also know for Jesu, which some refer to as his “shoegaze” project. While those are some of Justin’s more well-known projects, he’s been involved with many projects over nearly four decades, including everything from remixes to ambient music.
Every episode of Soundwave features spectacular mixes from our amazing guest deejays. Today’s show is no less unique. But today’s show a special to me...

SOUNDWAVEKim CasconeToday’s guest deejay is Kim Cascone.
I know Kim through his label, Silent Records.
Some of the earliest releases on Silent Records can instantly transport me back to the end of the last century. The From Here To Tranquility compilation series simultaneously turned me on to so many great musicians and blew my mind (check out my interview with Kim for solipsistic NATION here). The 50 Years Of Sunshine compilation album was a delightful celebration of the 50th anniversary of the discovery of LSD. And albums from Psychic TV, Zoviet•France*, Vuemorph, and Heavenly Music Corp...

Kazuya is a Japanese artist who creates immersive, ritualized compositions through bronze bells, gongs, and singing bowls. Kazuya’s music is rooted in Buddhist (Zenzhu) philosophy and sensibilities unique to Japan. Kazuya’s work and interests are also contemporary and span many cultures. Kazuya is also an award-winning writer and a connoisseur of Japanese Literature, Buddhist Folktales, and Zen Philosophical Works.
I came across Kazuya’s music at the beginning of the pandemic. At the time, my attention span had been whittled down to a blunt end. I could no...

SOUNDWAVESean SleightToday’s guest deejay is Sean Sleight.
A year ago, while perusing Boing Boing I read a post about Hollow Earth Radio, a Low Power FM (LPFM) non-commercial DIY radio station based out of Seattle. I was intrigued about the station’s promise of “local music, found sound, paranormal encounters, crank calls, dreams, etc.! 24 hours a day!” and tuned it. The station is a delight, and I became Sean’s show, Aquanautic Frequencies, and invited him to guest deejay on Soundwave.
Aquanautic Frequencies broadcasts every Wednesday from 11 am-1 pm PST. Spinning strange and groovy and tunes from...

SOUNDWAVEdanielfuzztoneToday’s guest deejay is danielfuzztone.
daniel’s mix is important to me for several reasons.
One reason is that I meant daniel through Soundwave guest deejay Michael Donaldson (listen to Michael’s mix here) when he posted an interview with daniel on his Micro.blog. Initially, I read the interview simply because it was on Micro.blog, a cool social media network I am a member of. But what hooked me was the interview itself and daniel’s exploration of sound through this music.
The other reason today’s show is important to me is t...

SOUNDWAVEDead MelodiesToday’s guest deejay is Tom Moore, AKA Dead Melodies.
After listening to his latest album, Fabled Machines of Old, I invited Tom to guest deejay on Soundwave back in June. The album was released on Cryo Chamber, and it’s what I’ve come to expect from every release from the label: exquisitely crafted dark ambient music that takes you on an emotional journey. Sometimes harrowing, but always rewarding.
Today’s show has been a different experience for me than what I’ve become accustomed to. Usually, I receive mixes for Soundwave six months before I s...

SOUNDWAVETextere OrisToday’s guest deejay is Ilya Fursov, AKA Textere Oris.
Ilya is yet another guest deejay that comes to us by way of the Cryo Chamber music label. I’m sometimes reluctant to feature musicians from Cryo Chamber because I showcase artists from their roster a lot. But that’s because the label’s releases are so good that why would I not invite them on Soundwave?
I was introduced to Ilya after listening to Reflections at the Sea, an album he released with Vladislav Sikach, AKA SiJ. Like most albums on Cryo Chamber, I was imme...

SOUNDWAVEJosé SobranesToday’s guest deejay is José Sobranes.
I met José through Mauricio Sotelo, AKA Haiteku, who I met through Axel Arturo Barceló, who guest deejayed on Soundwave here and here. Soundwave has been around just long enough that it is beginning to form a rhizome-like network. I like that.
I also like José’s mix. I’m never quite sure where one song ends, and the next begins. The only boundary is the start and end of his mix. It exists in some liminal space that is akin to being awake and being asleep. I’m doing my b...

Oleg Puzan of Line Spectrum, AKA Dronny Darko (listen to Dronny’s mix here and his Line Spectrum mix here), recommended his partner guest deejay on the show last year, and Sasha’s mix was beautiful and sublime. I invited Sasha back on Soundwave, and she’s delivered another fantastic mix.
While Sasha’s first mix for Soundwave was elemental and cosmic, today’s mix feels cozy and intimate. I’m listening to it as I write today’s show notes, and I wish San Diego would not be so...

SOUNDWAVEWife SignsToday’s guest deejay is Kellen Perry, AKA Wife Signs.
Daniel Chamberlin turned me on to Wife Signs with his Cosmic Chambo mix for Soundwave. As is my want, I asked Daniel who he know that would want to share a mix on Soundwave and he suggested Kellen. Daniel was spot on, because Kellen’s mix is a delight.

n5MD founder Mike Cadoo put me in touch with PCM when I asked him after guest deejayed on Soundwave who he thought would want to share a mix on the show. PCM has crafted a mix that I adore. There’s so much to love.

I discovered Lecu a few months ago when Soundwave guest deejay Ishmael Cormack asked folks on Twitter for musical recommendations. Lecu suggested Sebastian Mullaert and Erland Cooper. Those were both great recommendations. Who was this Lecu? I checked out how Twitter profile, which led me to his Bandcamp page and listened to his albums. I extend an invitation to join us on Soundwave, and here we are today.
It was a breath of fresh air after last week’s mix from Line Spectrum. Don’t get me wrong, last week's...

A couple of months ago, Soundwave guest deejay Ishmael Cormack (listen to his mix here) asked for musical recommendations from his followers on Twitter.
Ismael got a lot of responses, and I listened to every suggestion on Spotify. If I heard something I liked, I’d invite the musician to guest deejay on Soundwave. Anthéne, for example, appeared on the show back in August. And today’s show, of course, features Triplicate Records.

Gert says today’s show features a perfect mixture of tracks that have influenced him and tracks that currently influence him. He said they’re all such beautiful tracks, and what’s best, you can find them all on Bandcamp, some of them entirely for free.
Today’s mix also includes a track form Gert’s proje...

I discovered Anthéne when Ishmael Cormack (listen to his mix for Soundwave here) requested music recommendations on Twitter. There were some great suggrestions, and I listened to everything I could find on Bandcamp or Spotify. Anthéne’s music was warm, dreamy, and organic for all its etherealness. Naturally, I extended to Anthéne to guest deejay on Soundwave.
Last week I drove from San Diego to Sacramento with Jonanathan Ammons’s mix providing the soundtrack for that apocalyptic journey. This week Anthéne’s...

SOUNDWAVERoel FunckenToday’s guest deejay is Roel Funcken.
When I began inviting people to guest deejay on Soundwave I requested mixes that were 30 - 60 minutes long. A 30 minute mix is perfect, but ambient mixes lend themselves to long sets, so I expected a log of guest deejays would not be able to help themselves, and would send me hour long mixes.
Then Roel wrecks my format by sending me a mix that’s two hours long!
But that’s what Roel does. He wrecks formats. His expression through music is always from an unexpected angle...

Corey was on Soundwave last summer, and his mix was unique because it was an extension of his show on AshevilleFM, where he played instrumental soundtracks. Sadly, Corey no longer produces that show. Fortunately for us, Corey kept to that format for today’s mix.

I learned he is the host of Inter-Dimensional Music, a syndicated weekly community radio broadcast of “heavy mellow, kosmische slop, and void contemplation tactics.” After enjoying a couple of his shows, I invited Daniel to guest deejay on Soundwave.

If you’ve been listening to SOUNDWAVE for the last few weeks, then it will come as no surprise that I discovered João on Bandcamp.
When SOUNDWAVE comes up in conversation with those unfamiliar with ambient music, I sometimes have to explain that not all ambient music is swathes of pretty sounds.
