Okay, this UV Funk show is totally not-to-be-missed material. It is dedicated to the hidden treasures from former Yugoslavia. Due to the Western-centric coverage of pop music’s history it is easy to miss some of this awesome music that ranges from obscure Boogie records to cosmic synth epics. To unearth these beauties via their @discom-1 label is the purpose of Belgrade-based music aficionados Luk...

Manche behaupten @hw-rhapsody erfinden sich regelmäßig neu, andere mögen an ihnen, dass sie sich immer treu geblieben sind. Hä? Was denn jetzt? Öfters könnte man den Eindruck bekommen, sie wären ein kratzbürstiges altes Ehepaar, öfters wünscht man sich aber auch, selbst mit ihnen verwandt zu sein. Nebenbei sind sie der lebende Beweis, dass man auch als Familienvater ein Kleinkind sein kann und das...

For sure, Vaporwave isn’t the new shit. Luckily, it proves substance. It’s certainly not dead, as some people seem to suggest. Instead, the art form has resulted in the emergence of a wide range of different styles, both musically and aesthetically. It almost seems that the thing that is Vaporwave enters a golden era with countless possibilities. In Dresden, there is one man who tries to follow th...

One more year, lots of new favourites. Once again UV Funk host Philipp asked a lot of Dresden- and not Dresden-based DJs and artists to comment on their biggest tune of the year.

Tracklist: Philipp Demankowski: Deep88 & Melchior Sultana - Yo House (Andras Fox Remix) Kryptic Universe: St...

Okay, it’s true. Mankind really haven’t evolved in 2016. Don’t know whether there is a correlation but 2016 was also the year that brought us many strong Ambient albums. For the latest UV Funk show @philipp-demankowski picked up the thread from 2014’s “Merry Ambient Christmas Special” and compiled some of the most exiting sonic adventures in Experimental world with some almost forgotten Ambient cl...

Synths have been the instruments of choice for decades when it comes to soundtracking horror movies. From the heydays in the Seventies with legends like John Carpenter and Goblin to modern approaches that reflects the early days those two pop culture icons make a perfect liaison dangereuse. Whether you like those sharp and abrasive electronic sounds or the haunting synth pads: you can’t doubt that...

Just like Exploitation movies could be a possibility for filmmakers to realize their dirty and in many cases cheaper visions – at least compared to Hollywood’s standards – the soundtracks to those films could also be a playground for musicians to try out different techniques and sounds. For the latest UV Funk show @philipp-demankowski put a mix together with his favorite soundtrack tunes to praise...

While on a constant search for new audiences @sandrow_m and @conrad-kaden went to Bad Schandau, a spa near Dresden and close to the Czech border. Haha. They were invited by @stachy who is hosting the Liquid Sound Club in a swimming bath over there. The concept provides an under- and above water light and sound experience while the bather floats in salt water. It is a pretty unique concept that Con...

One more year, lots of new favourites. Once again UV Funk host Philipp asked a lot of Dresden-based and mostly UV-related DJs and artists to comment on their biggest tune of the year. As in recent years the show gathers a fine collection of songs from Afro via House through to Vaporwave and Folk music. This year it seems as some guys are pretty much into adding affects. And two of them picked the...
