#NowSpinning The Doors – Waiting for the Sun (1968). Starting Saturday with one of my all-time favorite bands with their 3rd, more open, varied album that balances darker moods with lighter moments.

#NowSpinning The Chemical Brothers – Dig Your Own Hole (1997)
Let's start the weekend with big beats, acid lines and pure 90s rave energy. A landmark album that pushed electronic music straight into the mainstream.

#NowSpinning David Bowie – David Live (1974). My last ‘new’ Bowie album and the transition into his soul phase, recorded in Philly during the Diamond Dogs tour, including ‘Changes’ and ‘Space Oddity.’ Raw on-stage energy.

#NowSpinning David Bowie – Diamond Dogs (1974). A dark, theatrical album of a dystopian city ruled by fear, gangs and surveilance. With Bowie between Glam and Soul.

#NowSpinning Led Zeppelin – Presence (1976). Starting #vinylfriday with this raw, guitar-driven album shaped by Plant‘s recovery and Page‘s intensity. An underrated, powerful masterpice, recorded at musicland Studios in Munich.

#NowSpinning David Bowie – Aladdin Sane (1973). Ten years earlier, during his glam phase. A sharp, restless album with striking piano lines and a slightly unhinged edge.

#NowSpinning David Bowie – Let’s Dance (1983). I had the chance to fill some Bowie gaps in my collection. Don’t be surprised if things get a bit Bowie-heavy now. Starting with a groove-led album that pairs strong songs & open sound.

#NowSpinning Black Sabbath – Black Sabbath (1970). A slow, heavy debut shaped by sparse riffs, dark atmospheres, and a steady, unhurried weight that defined a new direction without excess.

#NowSpinning Porcupine Tree – Fear of a Blank Planet (2007). Named in reference to Public Enemy classics, this focused, atmospheric record uses long structures and steady tension to build impact with calm precision.

#NowSpinning Can – Ege Bamyası (1972) Another groundbreaking album, this time from the krautrock side. With hypnotic, repetitive grooves, improvised structures, and a blend of funk, rock, and ambient-like passages.

#NowSpinning Placebo – Without You I’m Nothing (1998). Let's start the next vinyl Werk. Every beginning is hard, but with their second album and its melancholic, dark ballads the band reached a breakthrough well beyond England.

#NowSpinning Kurtis Blow – Deuce (1981). Smooth and rhythm-driven, built on easy grooves and clear melodic lines. Perfect prep as Kurtis is coming to town soon.

#NowSpinning Beginner – Advanced Chemistry (2016). A clear, confident record built on sharp hooks and relaxed flow. This comeback album took 13 years, and when it finally dropped, it hit hard - AHNMA.

#NowSpinning EPMD – Back in Business (1997). A focused return after 5 years marked by laid-back delivery, tight production work, and a steady, unhurried groove that underscores their classic approach.

#NowSpinning Theodor – Holocene (2024). Now for the second time in a row, I’d forgotten how much I enjoy this record. Back then it found its way into my collection because of the cover alone,

#NowSpinning La Boom – Atarihuana (2002 Eimsbush).
Wrapping up the work week with some music that some say hasn’t aged well, but for me, it’s still a solid part of my collection.

#NowSpinning Rahzel – Make the Music 2000 (1999). His first solo release after his time with The Roots, built on tight vocal rhythms and inventive beatbox work that gives the album its distinct character.

#NowSpinning Khruangbin – Mordechai (2020). A warm, steady album with relaxed rhythms and gentle melodies that helps me stay focused while working today.

#NowSpinning Judgment Night (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) (1993). A defining crossover release that brought hip hop and alternative rock together. Everyone who mattered to me back then, all on one sampler.

#NowSpinning Barker – Stochastic Drift (2025). First record of the Sunday. Created during the pandemic, the album aims to engage rather than invite movement, unfolding through rhythm and flow with a clear, focused intent.

#NowSpinning Radiohead – Pablo Honey (1993). A band that needs no introduction, it all started with ‘Creep’ and this straightforward debut that is built around raw energy, direct songwriting, and clear alternative rock sensibility.

#NowSpinning Betterov – Große Kunst (2025). Largely produced and orchestra-led, the album guides through small, intimate stories, with intermezzi framing songs that come together as a wider picture.

#NowSpinning Kinderzimmer Productions – Im Auftrag ewiger Jugend und Glückseligkeit (1996).
2nd spin today, 2nd time hearing KP on their 2nd LP. German HipHop marked by sharp lyricism, clear stance and strong sense of independence.
