| Dear customers, friends, followers and supporters. Some very sad news reached us these last few days, German Ambient and drone musician Mathias Grassow,a musician who performed at E-Live and who I met many times died very unexpectedly. So sad about this loss. A great guy and wonderful musician.  ================================= Back from a short holiday in the Belgium Ardenne, great visit to Frank VanBogaert and his lovely wife and dogs and great walks, talks and visits to places. Our Pressing Factory has been taken over by an other firm and it makes things not easier. Still no definite day the new Paul Ellis will come in. We are on it and hope to have them this week! And we are in the final process of a new Johan Tronestam. The title is Settlers and is a pure Tronestam musical fest! It is a brilliant album. And now back to work. Some cool CD’s came in and we even got something special from Frank. So check the CD section. And in 2 weeks we have the Dutch Masters festival!! Don’t miss that great new acts to explore and known acts to tickle your ears!I will keep the live set from Eric and me online one more week on the Dreamscape show. I had not yet had the time to make a new show! So have a great week and enjoy the rest of E-News and thanks for your time. Ron & Monique. New Music in and special offers!! Now instock! Bioscope (Rothery + Quaeschning) – Gento (CD + Blu Ray) https://www.groove.nl/shop/bioscope-rothery-quaeschning-gento-cd-blu-ray/?v=1a13105b7e4e  Bioscope is the highly anticipated collaborative project from guitar maestro Steve Rothery, founding member of Marillion, who has sold millions of albums worldwide and helped define the sound of progressive rock with chart-topping records — and from electronic visionary Thorsten Quaeschning, musical director of Tangerine Dream, credited on over 100 album releases and known for his acclaimed work on major film and game soundtracks. The word ‘Bioscope’ comes from the Greek ‘bios’ meaning life and ‘skopeein’ meaning to look; prior to the invention of cinema, it meant ‘a view or survey of life’. And that’s what Bioscope is about. The first album to emerge from this project is called Gentō, named after the Japanese term for “magic lantern”, a still-image projection system. It started life in early 2020 and after several five-day trips to Berlin over the years, and a few days in Steve Rothery’s home studio, it was finally ready to be mixed and mastered. Each of the five instrumental tracks takes it’s inspiration from man’s endearing fascination with the moving image. They weave together Rothery’s emotive, melodic guitar work with Quaeschning’s expansive soundscapes, creating a mesmerizing journey through light and darkness, memory and imagination, featuring an amazing performance by Elbow’s drummer Alex Reeves. With soaring guitar solos that evoke classic progressive rock to hypnotic sequencer-driven passages reminiscent of Berlin School electronica, the album flows like a soundtrack to an unmade film.
