Arthur C. Clarke (16 December 1917 – 19 March 2008)

Clarke’s most important scientific contribution may be his idea that geostationary satellites would be ideal telecommunications relays. He described this concept in a paper titled Extra-Terrestrial Relays — Can Rocket Stations Give Worldwide Radio Coverage?, published in Wireless World in October 1945. The geostationary orbit is now sometimes known as the Clarke Orbit or the Clarke Belt in his honour.

“I sometimes think that the universe is a machine designed for the perpetual astonishment of astronomers.”

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

1. Echo_TM - Intro

Again from my large tape archive: A selection of tunes played on the radio in Berlin in 1988. The independent radiostation “Radio 100″ had a weekly show called “Dubstreet”. I recorded it sometimes (to an audiotape, of course). It starts with some heavy Ska tunes, followed by Rocksteady and Rootsreggae (remember: Peter Tosh was killed only a few months ago, Ska had his second revival). And it´s finished with some really fresh Dancehall. So everything, that was hot at this time was presented in this realy good show. Fortunally you got the music, unfortunally there are no comments of the radio DJs.

So here´s the playlist:

1. -?-: The Lord is with me
2. Jackie Opel: Wood inna di fire
3. Warren Allan: Babylon (Studio 1, 1964)
4. -?-: -?-
5. Decan Johnson: The woodman (Lee Pery)
6. Spanish Town Ska Beats: Stop that train (Blue Beat, Prince Buster, 1965)
7. -?-: In the backyard
8. the Maytals: Hallelujah
9. Derrick Morgan: Forward march!
10. Derrick Morgan: The Hop
11. Burning Spear: Repatriation (1983)
12. Bunny Wailer: Get up, stand up (1977)
13. Peter Tosh: Apartheid (1987)
14. DubStreet jingle
15. White Mice: Cocaine (True love, 1988)
16. Courtney Melody: Bad Boy
17. ?: Haffi fly out

Muslimgauze by Ibrahim Khider (March 2005)

“He was a guy who was very smart, very sharp, and very funny, in an untypical way, so that if you worked with him and got on his wavelength, he was a joy. He was cool guy and sorely missed. He never came across as a person who was interested in Islam as a religious faith. It was more to do with the political movement of the Middle East more than anything else. He was obviously very knowledgeable because when you look at his song titles he was talking about obscure figures in that part of the world and making obscure jokes. He wasn’t a Muslim and to me he never came across as one who had a deep understanding of the Islamic faith.” In later years, Bryn seemed to be emerging from his isolationist tendencies as he was besought with more requests for collaborations, remix projects, shows, and interviews. It’s highly unlikely Muslimgauze would have ever “made it big,” but he was getting wider recognition and acclaim for his music. This may have had something to do with emerging cultural changes in the latter decade of his life, with accelerating migrations to the West and the advent of electronic dance music. A new generation of savvy listeners perceived music beyond traditional pop constraints, and Muslimgauze was no longer such a stretch; increasingly, his listeners are from places to which Bryn dedicated his music”

Zitate von Muslimgauze: “Sie mögen vielleicht Wodka. Ich mag arabische Kultur.”

“Ich bin nicht religiös. Das bringt nur Ärger. Wenn andere Leute glauben, ist das deren Sache, für mich ist das nichts.”

(auf die Frage nach Resonanz auf die Musik in den arabischen Ländern) “Null. Keine. Aber wir erwarten auch keine. Das ist nicht wichtig.”

So here´s the playlist:

1. Opiate And Mullah 06:33
2. Kabul Is free under A Veil 01:44
3. Under Saffron 06:35
4. Turkish Sword Swallower 02:44

This was the second cd-release of my little mixtape- and homerecording label back in the year 2000. You´ll find here melodica versions of famous roots and dub tracks from the early 70s to late 90s of the last century, non available elsewere. And a never released riddim of the mighty Ras Command. This cd showcases the art of mixing by selecta Bauminista featuring the female melodica player Mrs. Melody. Both were members of Dub Squad, a Berlin based Roots and Dub Soundsystem in the 90s (by the way: I was the 3rd member, Sister I-Fua was the part time percussion player. Actually she runs the Rootsman Culture Store in Berlin). I was responsible for the final mastering and the cover artwork.

So here´s the playlist:

1. Ras Command: Walker°
2. African Simba: Patience
3. African Simba: Dub*
4. Bush Chemists: In daylight robbery*
5. Ronny Davis: JAH JAH JAHovia*
6. Ronny Davis: Version*
7. Ronny Davis: Dub*
8. Rockers Allstars: 1 Ruthland Close*
9. Bobby Ellis: Step softly
10. Barry Brown: Movements of Dub*
11. All Campbell: Clean hands*
12. King of Dub: King of Zion Dub*
13. Wayne Jarret: Every toungue shall tell / Dub
14. Johnny Osbourne: To kiss somebody
15. Scientist: Dub

°unreleased riddim *unreleased melodica version

Blessings,
