The theme of this year’s “schallplatte” is “mythology”.
“Mythology (from ancient Greek mythos “narrative, speech” and -logy; mythología originally: “legendary story”), or in German also the world of legends, is the totality of the myths of a cultural area or a people, a region or a social group as well as their systematic presentation in literary, scientific or religious form.”

I sent this Wikipedia quote to over 200 musicians with the request that they submit a track. 22 complied and the 13-member jury did a great job selecting them again: thanks to Alfred Arnold, Jens Uwe Carstens, Harald Denker, Moni and Uwe Lennartz, Christian Meier, Udo Passenberg, Andreas Pawlowski, Norbert Rescher, Stefan Schulz, Thomas Schweres, Dirk Schütter; I was there myself too.

As you can see from the track list, there are many well-known musicians again; very nice, also a musician. Thank you very much, dear artist, for your musical gift!

I really enjoyed listening for hours while selecting, I hope you like some of the 13 pieces too.

The creative musicians got most of their inspiration from Greek mythology: Orpheus, Prometheus, Poseidon, the Trojan horse, the sirens, the river Styx in the underworld, but also from the Aborigines, in Iceland, … Well, none of that should exist anymore. See piece 3: “2012”. According to the Mayan calendar, which ends on December 21, 2012, the world should end then. We know better!

You will soon be able to read the musicians’ thoughts on their pieces, including a photo, on www.schallwen.de. The cover image with the stylized goddesses is also there. Many thanks to Udo Passenberg, who once again put a lot of effort into the layout for the 2024 record with numerous drafts.

A beautiful, well-rounded disc worth listening to with varied, excellent electronic music.

I hope you enjoy listening; stay tuned to us as a schallwende member – all the best
