ELECTRIC CAFE ON RADIO PUT ON HOLD!!!

My Radioshow Electric Cafe is put on hold indefinitely so I will write about Synthmusic here instead of on air. 

I will also once a month bring you a mixtape with my favourite tracks that month, that is going to be available on my Hear This account, same account that I have put mostly of the radioshows before.

ARSINE TIBÉ & SUZANNE LETTING

One of last weeks more soulful and ambient releases is the new single from Germanys Arsine Tibé, the ghosts vocal comes from Suzanne Letting in the beautiful song "The Book Of Ghosts" 

My thoughts of the song is that we have a nice history in the song, ambient and atmospheric, a sweet melancholic song, you taking a glas of wine, and relaxing while you listen to the history, nice one there from Arsine Tibé. 

Pressrelease: 

Arsine Tibé, Manfred Thomaser's synth pop/lounge noire project, is continuing to release high-quality singles. The predecessor ‘Beyond The Point’ already featured a collaboration with Suzanne Letting and the pleasant voice is also back on the current track ‘The Book Of Ghosts’. It is embedded in a delicate, lively synth arrangement and Thomaser himself is also back with his vocals. We experience the meeting of two characters and, together with the main protagonist, are faced with a decision that is truly not easy. Should you persevere in the face of imminent danger or leave your normal life behind? How serious is this threat and can you find safety and protection elsewhere? Everyone is familiar with similar situations. Usually it's just about minor professional or private changes, but sometimes it's about major upheavals in life. But is it a friendly spirit whispering in your ear or is it the devilish version of a counsellor? Who can you trust and to what extent are doubts justified? The friendly arrangement of the song conveys confidence in this precarious situation, but it doesn't seem to favour either path. Rather, it feels like the kind of confidence that encourages you to trust your instincts. The format is completed by the instrumental version of "The Book Of Ghosts", which naturally seems much more light-footed without the menace of the lyrics. 

About Arsine Tibé: 

Arsine Tibé is a Lounge Noire & electronic pop music solo-project of Manfred Thomaser. His music comes up with lounge, soundtrack, ambient, new wave, electro and pop elements.

VANGUARD

It's been over a year since we heard new music from Swedish Vanguard but today the new dance smoker "Unz!" was released and we get a song that you can't help but sing along to, sing-along synth, not often you get that feeling but here you get it without a doubt, it´s PARTY DE LUXE!!! 

Patrik, one of the members in Vanguard have been busy with his project Uncreated so it´s nice to hear something new from legendary Vanguard. 

Vanguard is getting ready for M´era Luna 2025 in Hildesheim, DE on Saturday/Sunday with other bands like AND ONE, BLUTENGEL, COVENANT, EISBRECHER and ROTERSAND just to mention some, if you wanna see Vanguard and the other bands, check out M´Era Luna´s EVENT on Facebook, for tickets and more info.

ELECTRIC CAFE ON AIR

Yesterday was the season premiere for Electric Cafe after the summer break. 

One of the new things in the radioshow is that in each program I will play at least one song from the 80s, and not any of the ordinary songs that EVERYONE knows, I have digged hard in the archive and still digging after less famous synthtracks from the 80s or songs you might have forgotten. 

Another new thing is that the program will be uploaded so you can listen to it afterwards, so that is what this post is about, tracklista in description on our Hearthis post.

Next week the show is back again, I have THREE Worldpremieres ready for you, among them, the new upcoming banger from Cold Connection.
