Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Depeche Mode - But not tonight #10
June 18, 2021 04:00 - 5 minutes - 4.71 MBWell guys, you know it had to happen sooner or later, I needed to recommend you one song of the band which accompanied me for almost my whole life now, Depeche Mode. Growing up in the "Soviet Zone" behind the iron curtain, Depeche Mode was quite well known in East Germany and even got played on the state owned radio stations ... surprisingly. So here it is, my recommendations from the Titans of Pop, "But Not Tonight": https://youtu.be/Prn0LN1OHd4 Surprisingly uplifting lyrics, I g...
Shellshocked Radio Talk with noisecide - Paraguay, Russia, Helsinki, Johann Sebastian Bach ... #77
June 17, 2021 16:00 - 51 minutes - 47.4 MBTonight I was able to talk with the complete band "noisecide" from Paraguay. They blend quite different styles together, electronica, Metal, Hardcore, Goth Rock & Punk but describe their style as Industrial Alternative Metal. They were fortunate to play a few shows before the pandemic, as they were founded in 2019, even though the idea and the name for the project was kicking around in the head from Dani, the band leader, for quite some time (years) before. We talk about the musical infl...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - imaginary war - The tide has turned #9
June 15, 2021 04:00 - 3 minutes - 2.89 MBHello Guys, this recommendation comes with a bit of regret as I have "missed" this band as they were still living and active in my Home town Jena. I'm pretty sure I have seen them individually around in the club scene, but never have seen them perform live. I only discovered them as I was working with a friend on a video (this one: https://youtu.be/FjOUyiTz7Rg ... I play the bad guy ...) and found this song / video in his back catalog. So here is the great song: https://youtu.b...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Dontmesswithjuan - Quebec, 2nd Accident, Radio, Surrealist Electronica#76
June 14, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 72 MBToday I had the pleasure to talk with Stephanie from "Dontmesswithjuan". We soon discover that she is a "Quebecoise" and bond over our love for Montreal and swear words from Quebec ;) She makes Surrealist Electronica and takes us on a little journey to her process of writing and creating music. We talk about her collaborations and how she found her way to making her very unique brand of music & how she came up with her genre definition. We also talk about her time in Bolivia & Colom...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Outshine - Death & Taxes, Paradise Lost, Type o' Negative, Truth ... #110
June 11, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 62.4 MBToday I was able to catch up with Jimmy from "Outshine", and we hit it off right away. It seems like we are brothers from different mothers ... ;) We talk of course of the new album and the first single "Night call": https://youtu.be/Gr79glMlbtg It also ended up in my recommendation playlist, btw. ( https://youtu.be/4hIbP2X3MtY ) As he happily can tell us, there is much more to come and hopefully they will go back on tour. Apropos tour, Jimmy shares a few nice stories from touring...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Outshine - Nightcall #8
June 11, 2021 04:00 - 3 minutes - 3.05 MBHey Guys, Outshine flew long under my radar and I don't know why, they are great, and from my point of view, absolutely underrated. So I'm here to change that! Please check out their great song "Nightcall": https://youtu.be/Gr79glMlbtg Fun fact, they are the 4th band I got to know in a short time which are musically completely up my alley which hail from "GOTHenburg" in Sweden. Soon I will sit down to have a talk with them, so you and I, we both will get some more insight why Gothe...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Alex 2nd Accident - Pushing your comfort Zone to stay relevant ... #75
June 10, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 60.6 MBToday Alex and I, we spoke about the importance to keep your main goal in mind in this ever changing and evolving Landscape we life in. I tell him about my short brush with the new app "Clubhouse" which might be irrelevant already once this talk airs. Basically it comes down to this formula: Direction first, tools second. Know your goals your working towards to, then all other things will / should fall into place. Then you will know what tools are really beneficial for reaching it. D...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Rammstein - Das Model(l) - Kraftwerk Cover #7
June 08, 2021 04:00 - 7 minutes - 6.75 MBHey Guys, today I recommend a cover version. Rammstein, which became dear to my heart as I've lived abroad for many years, always made me happy when I've heard them in clubs and discotheques. I could sing the songs along, understand the lyrics and translate it for my friends. I also like the word plays of Rammstein, some more subtle, some more obvious (Example: "Du hast"). Anyway, their Cover Version of "Das Model" from Kraftwerk is our focus today: https://youtu.be/xe5M3KmjWak Th...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Johnathan Christian - Sisters of Mercy, Soundcloud, Bandfights & more #74
June 07, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 71.4 MBTonight I was able to talk with Christian from the international project "Johnathan Christian" (sometimes written like this: "Johnathan|Christian"). He resides in Stockholm / Sweden, while Johnathan, the other project member resides in New York. They met on Soundcloud, now 7 years ago and formed this project and later recruited more members for it. We talk about creativity and the freedom of doing the music you love and like to do, without any "ball & chain", as well as without any lab...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - crows on wires - this is not #6
June 04, 2021 04:00 - 1 minute - 1.6 MBHey Folks, if you like Joy Division, Post Punk and early Goth, this one is for you: https://youtu.be/GGsKOCY1-SM Simple but effective, nothing new under the Sun, but what they do, they do very well! Check them out here: https://open.spotify.com/track/5bSdjlotbeM00wApcL0xPp?si=f3c300efa8004559 and of course, here: https://hypeddit.com/link/griyke If you rather want to listen to my Talks as a Podcast, you can find it on Spotify, iTunes, Google & in other places here: https:...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Disco Dicks - Russia, Pop Academy, Analog Music for Digital People ...#73
June 03, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 73.1 MBTonight I was lucky to catch the two people from the band Disco Dicks. We cover where they are from and how they come to meet and also how they come to have a Russian Management Team. The most astonishing thing is for me that they really perform all their music live as a two man team! That is quite a feat. So we get into lengthily details on how they achieve that. We end with funny stories from one of their Russian tours and the outlook of things to come. https://open.spotify.com/...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Paradise Lost - Disappear #5
June 01, 2021 04:00 - 5 minutes - 5.42 MBHello Guys, today one recommendation from the great @Paradise Lost I have a very "special" connection to the Song "Disappear" and can hardly be objective here, but nevertheless, I really think you should check it out here: https://youtu.be/s8vFrZolxU4 here: https://open.spotify.com/track/2JzwJllCgVPXtcr9ZYphS4?si=8ec3626b06b945c1 and of course, here: https://hypeddit.com/link/griyke If you rather want to listen to my Talks as a Podcast, you can find it on Spotify, iTunes...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Alex 2nd Accident - being consistent & persistent, routine & deadlines#72
May 31, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 73.4 MBToday Alex and I talk about the routines you need to set up to get things done and be able to progress. My philosophical take on it is that you really should know yourself and how to work best, because there is no "one size fits all" approach to achieve a happy equilibrium with your work life balance. I know, for example, that I work in "bursts" sometimes I do no music for two weeks, and then I finish three songs in a row, whenever I feel inspired. Sometimes deadlines help as well. So, ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Seabound - Without You #4
May 28, 2021 04:00 - 2 minutes - 2.67 MBHey Folks, just a short shout out to Seabound's "Without You", which you can find here: https://youtu.be/DgqWGPTBfAk here: https://open.spotify.com/track/5jWiqgNFX6nFOUKjW9CXfd?si=a9baadb371a54ae8 and of course, here: https://hypeddit.com/link/griyke Hailing from my "Home World" Germany, Seabound seem criminally underrated. But are making very good Synthpop (+ Future Pop, Downtempo, Trance and Techno according to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seabound ) Please give them a...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Minority Sound - Pain, Rammstein, Touring Mexico, Digital vs. Tube ...#71
May 27, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 74 MBTonight I had the great pleasure to get to know Otus Hobst from Prague, the Mastermind and founder of the Band "Minority Sound". The Band was in the beginning heavily influenced by early works of Peter Tätgren's "Pain" Project, but found its own sound now, which is Death Metal, including growls, and electronic techno music, in the, as I think, perfect mix. Check out my favorite song "Toxin": https://open.spotify.com/track/49HMqPttBdHB0EHKzDCR28?si=7FcMBGUhQM2zFjQVxPMQZQ and you know ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The House of Love - Shine on - Apoptygma Berzerk - Megalmodas #3
May 25, 2021 16:00 - 5 minutes - 5.05 MBHey Folks, today I'm absolutely biased as I'm recommending the song "Shine on" from @The House Of Love to you: https://youtu.be/rxUv79hejRU I was 8 or 9 years old when I have heard the song for the first time and it stuck with me since then. I rediscovered it later first through @ApoptygmaBerzerkBand and their real superb version: https://youtu.be/qNxOuquQfzk Making me pick up the guitar years later as I was living abroad in Budapest and trying it out: https://youtu.be/kEXz...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Visions of Atlantis - In & Out of Love #2
May 21, 2021 04:00 - 5 minutes - 4.78 MBHey Folks, Once again a song bordering on perfection. So short and so epic. Clocking in under 3 minutes it is so concise & to the point. It is a symphonic pop song par excellence. Clearly not overstaying its welcome, but to the point, never boring always engaging, with great use of dynamics and ... of course the great vocals of Clémentine Delauney. I can put this one in a loop and never get tired of it. It always leaves me elevated and happy, so you should definitely give it a spin. ...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Dimi Kaye - Indie Artist promotion, Spotify playlist placements, Music#68
May 20, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 103 MBTonight I had loads of fun talking with Dimi Kaye from Greece. He does Synth Wave Music but puts his very own spin on it as he also incorporates heavy guitars into his mixes. We talk about things an indie artist should know about promoting him or herself and that the most important thing is to genuinely connect with people. Reach out and be nice, is the simple advice here. Don't be jealous and rather be happy if your friends and comrades do well. You never know when they might help y...

Nothing is too much, nothing too little, a perfect balanced song, close to perfection. I was lucky enough to already get to know Denis, one of the founding members of the Band from Montpellier / France. ...
Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Pale Leagues - Blackened Doom Manifest, Mortality, Trent Reznor, Halo #67
May 17, 2021 16:00 - 55 minutes - 51.7 MBThis Morning I had the pleasure to talk with Pale Leagues from Melbourne. His music has lots of influences from Black Metal to Darkwave, so it falls right into the categories & genres I like, even though we both agree that Labeling everything is a double edged sword, and I'd rather call hie music "Genre fluid". So far he has released 3 Songs on his own, but will re-release and re-mix some as he is closing a Label deal. He also will release a Darkwave centered outing in the next few mon...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - I Will Heal - (Andy) LAPLEGUA - Ole Anders Olsen - Combichrist #0
May 14, 2021 04:00 - 14 minutes - 13.2 MBHello Guys, I realized that it sometimes not really clear what kind of music I like and why. I guess for the "normal" consumer of my (Radio) Shows it does not really matter, but for artists and musicians, who want to send me their music, it can be helpful to know what I like, why I like it and what I look for. So here we go now and I start a new series explaining myself better. The song is "I Will Heal" from LAPLEGUA, which you can find here: https://youtu.be/saDdtP-mfDg here: ...

May 06, 2021 16:00 - 1 hour - 75.3 MBThis Morning I had the great pleasure to talk with a seemingly relaxed Marc about his Project "Buzz Kull". He intensely has toured Europe with it, as it is where his music is mostly appreciated (we Europeans know what is good ... ;) His music is hard to classify, this is a great thing, as I think, but it falls a bit into the Darkwave / Minimal Synth & Post Punk realm, if we need to stick labels on it. But he certainly has his very own style, and we talk about how he has achieved that, ...

Shellshocked Radio Talk w/ Doll Klaw - Live Performance, Fake Blood & Bleach, Videos & new songs #52
March 25, 2021 17:00 - 1 hour - 70.6 MBThis morning I had the pleasure to talk with the energy bundle Jessica about her music project "Doll Klaw".
