Podcast deep story nr. 198 l everything is flowing l by Matchy Rhythms of hundreds of drums beguile the senses, which seem unprepared for the enormous flood of stimuli. The most diverse smells put the olfactory receptors on alert. They can no longer distinguish between known and unknown and surrender completely to this state of unpredictability. There is still so much to discover and learn here. The algorithm behind the colourful hustle and bustle remains hidden. Everything seems to be subject to its own laws. It cannot be grasped and ordered, it flows into each other and is stirring, it drives you forward. Overwhelmed by all these impressions, you let your mind go on an exciting journey. Matchy accompanies you and wants to bring you a little closer to this world. He conducts in the background and yet is always present. The selected pieces of music are masterfully coordinated and draw a path through the supposed confusion. Like an invisible red thread, the rhythms and melodies guide you and yet leave room for your own explorations in this soundscape. Read More

Podcast deep story nr. 197 l first beat l by Denny Maechler I enter a narrow, dark corridor. It seems really heated up by all the people who have been passing through here for hours. In the corridor, one can only orient oneself by a weak light that falls into the corridor from the large hall. Oh how I have longed to be back in this place. These old walls with this high gracefully shaped ceiling and the gigantic mirrored windows, which make the entire interior seem light and seemingly weightless, captivate you from the second you enter the dance hall. A joyful excitement jolts through my body. In a moment the first bass would start. Read More

Podcast deep story nr. 196 l dancing in the sunlight l by The Robot Scientists I turn the old radio up to full volume and my foot starts to bob. Suddenly, the familiar feeling sets in. Happy hormones flow through my body and my stomach tingles. My limbs break out of their dull brain-controlled shadowy existence and bit by bit regain their autonomy. The bobbing of the foot becomes the first tentative dance steps and my shame-ridden resistance fades. A few seconds later my movements are already flowing and follow an imagined choreography. My spontaneous outburst of mood paired with the loud music quickly attract attention. The first people stop and watch with interest. Soon I have first comrades-in-arms on the large meadow, which serves us as a dance floor. The music attracts more and more passers-by in the park and little by little the meadow fills up. In me grows the feeling that I have attracted all these people with my joy and they now share it. Read More
Podcast deep story nr. 195 l spring awakening l by Kriszpy Kissed awake by the first touch of the distant life-giver, Mother Nature rises from her hibernation. Carefully she shakes off the lethargy of the last months and begins to unfold. As it were First self-confidently driving also the first bars of the new deep story develop. The musical selection, just like the increasingly green surroundings, lures people out of their dwellings and sets them in motion. They stroll through the parks in droves and leave the sofa they have grown fond of behind them. The sun's rays and electronic sounds increase the pulse rate and the serotonin level. Contentment spreads and is carried by melodic sound. Accompanied by occasional vocals, the result is a coherent overall picture. We thank Kriszpy for this wonderful spring walk, which accompanied us through the gray walls out into the colorful world of nature and makes great desire for the first outdoor raves. Read More
