Momentan gespieltes Stück: Synthetic Mind Decay Kommentar anzeigen - Rejection
Kommentare zum Künstler/Projekt 'Synthetic Mind Decay'
Von synthetic mind decay:...
Von DarkAmbient:Mike has deleted the artist info and shut down his web page. This regrettably seems to be the end of the project.

You can hear these four albums on this stream:

- Weight of the World (2006)
- Delusion (2007)
- The Lifting of the Veil (2007)
- Lost beyond Imagination (2008)
Von vile:This is awful... and probably the best track submitted for the comp couldn't make it in DAR Vol. 2... At least we'll always have some SMD played on a regular basis here for our midnight sleep trips!
Von DarkAmbient:Update:

For the last weeks I had an extensive review of SMD's complete back catalog as well as the new Album Time is your Enemy, But It Will Be Your Friend.

Thanks to archive.org, I added the seven remaining releases to the playlist except Forever Rain from Lifting of the Veil, Sufffocation from The Evolving Path of Life, and the Metric Fuck Tune from Time is.

Notice that Mike also has a space ambient project called The Ghost of an Alien.
Von The Large:Is "synthetic" an attribute to just "mind" or "mind decay"? Think about that, people...
Von DarkAmbient:From Mike:

"Years ago, when I first killed SMD, my plan was to merge SMD and SBA together and create a super ambient group. Unfortunately, a lot of people thought I gave up on both projects, but I didn't.

I officially killed all my projects over the last year and now I have combined all of them and made an new project.

The title of the new project is The.Synthetic.Awakening. It combines art, music (ambient, dark ambient, drones, metal, noise, experimental, and electronic.

The first release can be downloaded here: https://thesyntheticawakening.bandcam...lbum/b-a-n

The artwork can be view here: http://thsyntheticawakening.deviantar...ntart.com/

The facebook page is here: https://www.facebook.com/thesynthetic...awakening/"

Two more releases came on Bandcamp since September.
Von thesyntheticawakening:Hey all it's mike. I am back \m/ Smile \m/

Thanks for posting the links to the new music.

Dark Ambient Radio supports coops

   Subvert Coop Logo

The New York City based coop aims at being an artist-owned replacement for Bandcamp. Bandcamps recent ownership changes has raised doubts that the platform still can be trusted. Maybe subvert.fm is worth giving it a try...

Update: Another coop project is resonate:

Umzug Webspace

Webspace moved. Site still under reconstruction.

Baustelle

Please have a little bit more patience.

Stream Online Again
public domain icon checkmark

The radio stream is online again. Sorry for the disruption.
DAR recommends:

Dark Ambient Radio Vol. 4 released
DAR Vol 4 cover art

From Saturday on, it will be available for 6? on Bandcamp. All money goes to the contributing artists (after taxes, of course).

We worked on the release the bigger part of the year 2022. Everything is mixed & mastered with love. We hope to give you a piece of solace in this dark time of the year. Enjoy!

Problems with Winamp last two weeks
It seems many people still use Winamp to listen to the stream.

Two weeks ago, my radio software SAM Broadcaster began to create unaccaptable bad sound and I wasn't able to solve it. So I looked for an alternative and found a nice freeware: RadioDJ. Because the AltaCast plugin didn't work with the AAC+ encoder, I needed to connect RadioDJ to the stand-alone version of AltaCast via a virtual audio cable (VB-Audio). Getting it running was a rather painful experience.

But I got complaints from Winamp users being not able to listen to the stream anymore. So I requested some technical support to get SAM Broadcaster running again. This is how it looks, btw., a user interface style from 20 years ago:

SAM Broadcaster Screenshot

I think, I will switch to a Linux server somewhere in the far future and use Opus instead of AAC+. Hopefully more people have abandoned Winamp by then. But maybe bandwidth will be cheap enough to provide a mp3 stream for nostalgic reasons. :-p

The Internet Archive
It's the 1st of December and many organizations put their hat on the data highway and beat the drums to collect donatins.

A special case this year is the San Francisco based Internet Archive that wants to make a backup of its collection in Canada -- maybe to escape the reach of a Trumpian administration.
Since many years now, before soundcloud or even MySpace existed, I always found some pearls when I delved into the audio library. It seems to be the best place to carve something in stone on the internet. So if you have some bugs left in your pocket and you are thinking about donating it for some good cause, consider good old archive.org.

I wish you all a nice contemplative winter time!
Downtime again
Sorry for the little downtime today. My ISP now seems to work seriously on the problem, so it won't happen soon again.
Downtime
Sorry for the downtime. The broadcasting software crashed after the Spacial streaming server went offline.

Now you will only get DAR using the Viastreaming link:

http://s3.viastreaming.net:8835/listen.pls

The good thing is that databases like Shoutcast or Reciva might update the link soon.
New streaming provider / more slots soon
Dark Ambient Radio moves from Spacial to Viastreaming. Soon the slot number will be increased from 50 to 60 to overcome the weekend congestions.
