Radio Schwingungen: Sternenmusik Vol. 1

Alternate cover:

To me, two distinct styles represent the essence of Radio Schwingungen: (1) Cosmic/space music, and (2) melodic elegies. Then there's a third stream which (in my humble opinion) ruined Schwingungen: superficial melodic new age instrumental music - or, as I prefer to call it, Schlager without words. Anyway, I have compiled some of best tracks from (1) and (2) and here we go:

Sternenmusik features some essential space music, or music for stargazing or however you'd like to call this type of music mostly associated with the likes of Michael Stearns and Steve Roach. For the being I've excluded the cosmic music stream because it's far too big and complex stream to be covered in a single compilation.

Here's what you get today:

01 - In the Beginning... [by Michael Stearns]
02 - Alkyone [by Nik Tyndall]
03 - Kilree [by Matthias Grassow]
04 - Infinite Shore [by Steve Roach]
05 - Continuum [by Jonn Serrie]
06 - Jewel [by Michael Stearns]
07 - Regeneration Mode [by Van Zyl & Gulch]
