Uncanny Valley Podcast

If you walk through the now brightly polished streets of Dresden you can’t imagine that the city was once called „The Little Detroit Of The East“. After the wall came down it was a place crowded with industrial ruins and dirty occupied buildings. A place even Mad Mike thought of as “not particularly happy”. In other words: an ideal playground for Techno. It must have been in one of those short liv...

Dresden is a city of Dance culture. Not only did the famous German dancer and dance teacher Gret Palucca work here and still leaves traces in the form of the prestigious dance school named after her. The city’s theatre Festspielhaus Hellerau which was conceived by Swiss music teacher Émile Jaques-Dalcroze in 1911 has also a long history in providing a domicile for ambitious contemporary Dance proj...

Pretty much every time when Philipp enters the castle that is @CarlSuspect's music room there is a Krautrock record running on the turntable. So, the idea was obvious: why not doing a special about it for the next UV Funk? And here it is: Two mixes of Krautrock original and inspired tunes. Tracklist -- Philipps mix -- 01. DJ Sotofett - Space Dub 02. Muscleheads - Phosphorescence 03. Fujiya & Miyag...

As many have noticed Uncanny Valley celebrated its 5th birthday this past summer. On this occasion Philipp invited lots of UV artist into the coloRadio studio and asked them if they would play their favourite Uncanny Valley tune and talk a bit about it (Jacob Korn, Scherbe, Sneaker, Carl Suspect, Albrecht Wassersleben, Conrad Kaden, Sandrow M, Cuthead and special guest Max). The result is a pretty...

Philipp: "No need for long explanations this time. I mixed some of my favourite Dub and Reggae songs. After all, it's still summer in this hemisphere.

Success is dangerous. If your band hits the jackpot with numerous platinum records it’s likely that your future songs lack creativity and courage. But there are exceptions. For the latest UV Funk show host Philipp mixed cool music by popular bands that know how to sell records: B-Sides, Outtakes, lesser known singles or just your favourite track on an otherwise crap album. The show is in German. I...

If you wanna know how important the one and only Altes Wettbüro has been for Dresden’s club culture you only have to get a glimpse of the list that Micha Schuhman brought for the UV Funk radio show celebrating the tenth anniversary of Altes Wettbüro. It’s a densely-written document you’ll find names of artists from all kinds of genres on it. In the last ten years the full-time booker Micha Schuhma...

As you might have noticed our home town Dresden isn’t easy to call an open-minded city these days. There are pretty obvious xenophobic tendencies thanks to the painful Pegida marches which have been taking place in Dresden since October 2014. Among the many initiatives that oppose these developments there is the collective Tolerave. It’s a group of creative artists, event managers and friends of e...

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 Ambient. This year it seems as some guys are pretty much into adding affects. 01. Philipp Demankowski: Rudy Norman - Back...
