Uncanny Valley Podcast

You already checked our Uncanny Vacation record we put together with Munichs Permanent Vacation. For some deeper information and more great music Philipp had co-labelhead Benjamin Fröhlich on the line for a little interview about the past and future plans of Permanent Vacation. For those who cannot speak German there the trippy mix that Benji made for the radio show. - Philipp's PV tribute minimix...

Big things will happen in good ol' Dresden. DAVE stands for Dresden Audio Visual Experience and it is all about the many facets of club culture. There will be workshops, movie- and visuals-action, of course wild parties, concerts at beautiful spots and interesting panels with artists like Portable, Addison Groove, Ebo Taylor, Massimiliano Pagliara or even the mighty Roedelius. The event will take...

follow Albrecht @a-w-1 This time Albrecht takes us on a journey from West to East Africa and back in the times between 1927 and 2013. Starting with early recordings from 1927 made in London of West African musicians we explore traditional folk music. Going further with recordings from Kenya & Uganda we can hear the developing of recording qualities in the 30's and 40's. With the spreading of radio...

Summer ist over, winter is coming. Actually Philipp mixed the last UV Funk show as a teaser for our sunny Balearic party in Dresden. But now it turns out that the mix works perfectly as a soundtrack for the transition from the hot season into the cold one. It starts off with summery Afro and Funk vibes but ends in a rather dark atmosphere. 01 Prince Charles And The City Beat Band - Cash [Virgin] 0...

It's summer in the western hemisphere. And everyone is supposed to feel not too bad. Unfortunately we couldn't get that boat trip ready. But as compensation Gunnar and Philipp decided to do another Soft Rock Special. Since the first edition has been aired over two years ago it was about time. So, relax, grab a drink and listen to some fine tunes of Soft Rock, Yacht Rock, AOR, Blue Eyed Soul, Daddy...

When Max Graef and Nano Nansen played our Uncanny Valley Party last May we did a little pre-party with Max and Nano mixing it up at our beloved Fat Fenders. We streamed live from the record store to the radio station. Also, Philipp took the opportunity to ask some questions. This came about thanks to Dresden's East Lodge-crew whose DJs Nixon & Stogram contributed a little warm up set. Tracklist: N...

Fortunately it isn’t so difficult these days to explore some rare music from Africa. Just have a look at those fine reissues and compilations which showcase a wide range of that particular funky music that only can originate from the black continent. Just check out our Reissue Label Special from 2011 to get the idea. For this edition of UV Funk it’s Gunnars turn to pick out some beautiful tracks a...

When Philipp played on the infamous Tempo 80 party in Dresden earlier this year he selected way too many records to play only for one night. It would have been a pity to just put them back into the shelf niches. So he decided to mix some of them up for the next UV Funk show. So here it is: this is a mix full of cocaine flavoured tunes, special freak and disco versions, nuclear paranoia, hooligan s...

It's no secret that we love vinyl here at Uncanny Valley. So we didn't have to think long when Alex Ketzer asked the label to take part in his Beyond Plastic project, a mixtape in book format about artists and vinyl labels that press music on “black gold”. And there will be a CD with music from these labels that will be included with the book. Alex spent more than one year on the road to visit his...

One more year, lots of new favourites. Once again 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 Synth Wave via House through to Ambient. UV Funk is a radio show which is broadcasted every third Friday from 9:30 pm to 11:00 pm on Dresden based community radi...

Music from New Zealand sounds like Dub and Reggae? Well, that’s not totally wrong. At least there are a lot of bands on the Kiwi Islands dropping laid back vibes und doing it the smooth way. But there was also a huge Indie and Rock scene with bands like Split Enz, The Chills and the outshining label Flying Nun Records. Not to mention the exciting Fusion scene and those Psychedelic bands from The S...

There is so much good music in Leipzig nowadays. Two of those interesting label projects are Lunatic and Blackred, both researching the fields in between Science Fiction and Bass. Lunatic strikes attention more on the Techno side of things while the records on Blackred are just right for lovers of dark Electro. But in the end you’ll get proper electronic music you can dance to on both labels. Our...

No doubt – there has been a strong connection between movies and the world of electronic or rhythm based music. Just think of John Carpenter or the Goblin‘s work Dario Argento. Not to mention those musicians who tend to write music for movies just for the fun of it. Fot the UV Funk show in June Philipp picked some movie related songs out of his collection and made a mix out of it. UV Funk is a rad...

For those of you who don’t know: Conny Plank was a German record producer, musician, audio engineerer and secret member of many of those so-called Krautrock Bands until he died way too early in 1987. One of his early friends and collaborators was Hans-Joachim Roedelius, long-time member of Cluster and Harmonia and now – even at the age of 78 – hyperactive with both his solo work and in various col...

This show is all about music that sound somehow exotic to people from Middle-Europe. For UV Funk, Conrad Kaden selected his favourite Exotica tracks from countries like Trinidad, South Africa, Mali, Brazil, Poland, Iran, Turkey, India, Indonesia and Bavaria . Of course he couldn’t resist to sneak in one track from the upcoming Java / Sumatra EP from Uncanny Valley’s very own Sneaker. UV Funk is a...
