why can't i download all the ufo shows here?

©e. white


dear ufonauts,


i keep getting inquiries about why i'm not posting mp3 links to the ufo hawaii shows here on the blog.

i know it may be difficult to understand for some of you but i'm doing so out of  respect for the incredible artists, musicians and bands that are featured in the show.

so, spitzt eure lauscher:

i've devoted my life to music. since i was first able to fit a pair of headphones on, i've been searching for the perfect piece, the unheard beauty, the lost hit.
i even tried to fill in the gaps with music that i put out on my own records.

so what you're hearing on the ufo hawaii radioshows is basically the essence of that.

it still gives me the chills to find a wonderful track amongst all that junk we get cluttered with on a daily basis.

and i do want this other kind of music to live on!

when a ufo hawaii show is broadcast on the radio, the broadcasting station pays a fee to a so-called "performance rights organisation". this fee (well, not all of it, but most), is eventually split and transfered to all the artists featured in the show.
it's only a couple of cents each time, but in the long run this adds up for a busy musician - and many of the artists, especially those who make the leftfield or "uncommercial" stuff are dependent on it in order to continue making their music for you and me.

if i'd put all the existing shows online, ufo hawaii would probably be a much bigger success as it already is - but none of the artists would ever see a single penny.

what i would be doing is stealing their income to make my show more popular.

some of you music addicts may argue, that it is good promotion for the artists if their music is spread around, and therefore it should be free to download. that might be true in some cases, but this, after all, is not our decision:

if anyone has the right to decide if his work should be given out for free, it is the artist himself. show some respect, please.

and let's be honest folks: why would you wanna buy an album, if you already got the best track on the new ufo hawaii show you just downloaded?

and that is why you can't download all the ufo shows here. got it?

but what i'd like to do is to invite you to listen to the latest ufo show -  every 2nd friday of the month, at 23:00 (central european time) on byte.fm. absolutely free.

and all the other days of the month when you feel desperate for some of the really good stuff - why don't you lean back and explore the playlists listed here and buy some of the awesome music directly from the artists? this way you are contributing in making good music possible in the future!


hey, and for everyone who made it through here - here's a little freebie from your humble host künstler treu:

my latest coverversion of CAN's great track "full moon on the highway".
let the download begin!


enjoy...

Insects Are All Around Us



U.F.O. HAWAII pt.41
Insects Are All Around Us

A beautiful Place in the country
Insects are all around us
Vibrations we feel and hear
Each sound
Carries you deeper
And deeper
Makes you crazier
Hug ya
Squeeze ya
Ascending the river of the living
Swimming against its current
Breathing low
But were happy
Sleepy Time
On a Pillow of winds

pictopia



every other year the pictoplasma conference takes place here in berlin. hundreds of talented artists gather to inspire each and have a good time together.

this year's conference is located at the haus der kulturen der welt and it features "pictopia"; an outstanding exhibition of the world's latest character art.

the pictopia exhibition will playfully explore the phenomenon of contemporary character design and art. graphic designers, artists, animators, media and 3D designers work with a shared set of signs, opening up new contexts and correlations.



for the occasion, i was invited to compose a 6-channel sound installation called "plasmagoria" that will be played houerly during the six week exhibition.

having had a sneak preview while setting up my installation, i strongly suggest you take my advice and have a look at the unbelivably cool exhibits. the whole place looks like a giant playground for the audience, featuring giant puppets, hidden love shacks, an eye that follows you, a koala bear peepshow, and lots and lots of incredible art.

and don't forget to take a ride in one of the psychedelic bumper cars while you listen to the wickedest soundrack i've ever composed. take a trippy, dark and psychedelic tribal ride inside a furry creature of your choice...

heimatkunde auf dvd



eine unerwartete überraschung:

nach seiner überaus erfolgreichen tour durch deutschlands kinos (bei denen es leider mitunter zu krawallen und ausschreitungen militanter ostalgiker kam) erscheint HEIMATKUNDE nun endlich auch auf DVD.

ich habe selbst noch kein exemplar bekommen, es handelt sich aber anscheinend um eine "deluxe edition" mit jeder menge outtakes und bis dato ungesehenen szenen.

empfehlenswert natürlich auch für all jene, die sich meinen soundtrack zum film mal schön in dolby 3D reintun möchten.

veröffentlichungstermin ist der 30. märz 2009 - es gibt aber bereits einen amazon-link:

heimatkunde

HEIMATKUNDE - the most recent of the movies i've made soundtracks for - is having it's premiere.

On august 14th you can watch this bastard of a documentary - a satire and a roadmovie - at the babylon cinema in berlin; and you can probably have a chat with the directors as well.

the movie features the notorious titanic and spiegel online author martin sonneborn, on his bizarre journey through the outer rims of berlin, where he has extraordinary encounters with the natives of this area.
