SOUNDWAVE : 57 : ROEDELIUS

Today’s guest deejay is Hans-Joachim Roedelius.

Last month Roedelius’s “Wenn Der Südwind Weht” appeared on my Spotify Discover Weekly playlist. On a lark, I sent Roedelius an email inviting him to guest deejay on Soundwave.

I didn’t expect a response.

I’ve been surprised how many people I’ve invited to guest deejay on Soundwave have declined because, despite the pandemic, they are very busy. And that was a good thing to hear in the early days of the pandemic when it felt like the world was grinding to a halt. These people were getting on with their lives, performing and recording music.

Hans-Joachim Roedelius

Roedelius is a musician and composer and has performed and recorded with kosmische musik bands Kluster, Cluster , and Harmonia and has a long-spanning solo career. The pandemic has not slowed Roedelius down at all. Just last weekend he did a surprise live stream concert , and in May, he’ll release a new album, Weites Land, that he recorded with Alexander Czjzek.

Weites Land

Imagine my surprise and delight when he responded and sent me his mix for today’s show!

You’re in for a treat. Roedelius’s mix spans his career as a musician and includes recordings with Brian Eno, Dieter Moebius, and Nikos Arvanitis.

Join us next week when our guest deejay will be Daniel Chamberlin.

See you then!
