E-News 1451 – March 15th 2026
Dear customers, friends, followers and supporters

Some of you mailed me that we have our old mail address in the footer of the news mails, I know but not yet found where I can change this. So we are working on it!!

Lots of new releases in the catalog and the coming week there will certainly be even more as E-Day (as with E-Live) a lot of labels and musicians release their new music on these festivals !! 

We also have a few new ones, this time we plan new release by Patrick Kosmos and the first CD on Groove by Lisa Bella Donna. Exciting news!! These will be added in the coming weeks.

Now I got the question by costumers that when if they would like to add more titles to a certain order the problem is that new postage is added. Yes that is one thing we can not tackle on the shop we have. BUT!! You can always mail me or Monique ( ron@groove.nl or monique@groove.nl ) with which CD’s you would like to add and we will add them to an order. And you get a statement what is the outstanding payment then for that order!! We are here for you and will always help you this way.
If you want you can also place a new order and put in the comments that you would like to combine it to an existing order and then we can always refund the shipping costs of that extra order. No problem at all.
So any of these will work for you!!

So now we are off to the new entries but not before we tell you we have reached 175 Tickets for E-Day. It is going to be a great day as it look. So get these tickets in time!!

And here is the time table for this years E-Day 2026 on the 11th of April (only 6 weeks away!!) Please spread the news!!

It’s been almost 25 years since Axel released his first solo album, “First Light,” under the pseudonym Axess. Now, on April 10, 2026, his eleventh album, “The Power Of Love,” will be released. In this quarter-century, Axel’s music has undergone a significant transformation. Little remains of the electronic music he originally made, heavily influenced by the so-called Berlin School; this style of music is now pursued by Axel in his project Pyramid Peak. As Axess, the 58-year-old musician, born in Leverkusen but now living in Meerbusch, presents a considerably more subdued sound. Since the 2017 album “Seashore,” Axel’s music has taken on a much more chilled-out, almost ambient, character. Expansive soundscapes, long reverberations, subtle rhythms, and chill beats define the music of his last four albums, and “The Power Of Love” is no exception!

The eight tracks, ranging in length from 6:39 to 12:30 minutes, glide smoothly and hypnotically through the ears, allowing the listener to forget all the stresses of everyday life for nearly 75 minutes. All the songs move at a tempo of 70-94 bpm, leading to profound relaxation and encouraging imaginary journeys through space and time. The quality of both the songs and the overall sound has improved significantly compared to its predecessor, thanks in part to the final mastering of the CD by Axel’s longtime friend and musical partner, Max “maxxess” Schiefele. With “The Power Of Love,” Axel opens a new chapter in his musical career, as this CD is the first to be recorded entirely in his new “Reinklang Studio” in Meerbusch. Axel also leaves behind the past few personally difficult years and looks optimistically and full of inspiration toward a new, happy future. This positive, albeit sometimes slightly melancholic, mood runs like a common thread through the new CD and also includes one or two catchy tunes.

In The Last Days Of Empathy 9:56wo years after their last album, which was highly praised by the music press and fans, NAUTILUS are back with their new work, ‘A Castle Full Of Secrets’. This time, the journey takes the Nauticians to Eastern Europe, more precisely to the Carpathian Mountains. There, on a storm-tossed plateau, stand the ruins of an ancient castle. But what dark secret do the walls hold? Fans of the writer Jules Verne (1828-1905) will already have guessed: the tenth NAUTILUS album is once again based on a novel by the French author. This time, the German band led by Martin Ludwig has taken on the 1892 novel ‘The Carpathian Castle’ and set it to music. The result is eleven new songs that deal primarily with Verne’s novel, but as usual also leave room for individual thoughts. Ludwig’s dreamy sounds, sometimes elegiacally flowing, sometimes energetically pulsating, repeatedly meet the compositions of his fellow musicians Jürgen Dürrbeck (synthesizer & sequencer) and Werner Strätz (electric guitar). Voices, such as those of singer Meiko Weigel (bass, vocals, samples) or Elmar Darimont in the intro, are used sparingly; instrumental passages are clearly in the foreground on this album. Anyone who has accompanied the band on their journey through electroacoustic soundscapes so far can close their eyes and let themselves go with ‘A Castle Full Of Secrets’ with a clear conscience: NAUTILUS are as retro as it gets, without ever seeming old-fashioned or degenerating into mere copies of their musical idols (whose influences are unmistakable).
