Next FONIA Radio Show (61): we see what happens... in 2022!

This surely was a heavy year for almost all of us—ups and downs, weirdness, and so much anger and emotion.After a longer hiatus, we decided to go back to the one thing that has always made us happy and filled us with sunshine: doing a live radio set at OKJ.This time, no interview, no special guest—just a collection of vinyl, some drinks, and a few peeps in the studio.Spinning records, sipping drinks, and laughing out loud while playing back to back.Maybe there’s a bit more soul in this one, with the hope that the new year will bring you all the warmth, peace, and love you’re longing for.We thank you for taking the time to listen in, and we wish you a Merry Christmas—or any other holiday you enjoy. And please don’t forget:be good to yourself.

Equipped with somewhat lower voices than usual (thanks to the aftermath of G&T’s and Gibsons) we met with Jonny aka LUSO (@lusomusica) on a crisp cold day somewhere in a Scottish Office building for a chat all around Jonny’s heritage his path from Texas to Europe and his main influences all from music over architecture and visual arts to ice cream and pizza. After our conversation, LUSO dished out a hand-curated collection of tracks. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy our special greetings from Caledonia, The Land of the Brave.Thank you all for listening. Be good to yourself!

Hey y'all out there, welcome to our 63rd session this year, and what a rare treat this one is. Not only are we stepping quietly into this very special season of the year, but we are doing so alongside @oliver-goldt who takes us on a journey: a musical potpourri for the laughing and crying eye – from the plate directly into your ears.Oliver Goldt (@oliver-goldt), the 100% passionate music lover is a known guest on our FONIA Radio Show, now for the 2nd time, and as such he shares with us these precious musical gems found on a long-lost data carrier – true to the motto: “One of the best things in the world is to enjoy musical treasures and keep discovering new ones!”.With that, enjoy the late-night-winter-valley mix, created by Oliver Goldt (@oliver-goldt) for peaceful hours.Thank you all for listening, be good to yourself!(most of all: PEACE at the end of 2023 - please!)

On one of the last sunny days of the summer of 2023, we visited @djresoul in the Soultrade Record Store in Berlin. Enjoy a session filled with talk tracks from the beginnings of @djresoul as a member of the Downtown Lyrics crew (one of the only HipHop crews in former DDR/GDR check for info on these also the permanent exhibition in the Humboldt Forum - https://www.humboldtforum.org/de/programm/termin/drop-in/hiphop-in-ost-und-west-76250/) all the way to recent activities in music and all the interesting and related topics surrounding it. To top it all off, @djresoul guides us through the broadcast on the waves of a specially curated mix full of amazing nuggets of pure sound gold.Thank you all for listening.Be good to yourself!

Welcome y’all to our 61st instalment of the Fonia Radio Show and with that to our special mega package to celebrate the 10th anniversary of our show. We would have never thought that out of the one-off idea to just play our favourite jazz records in a radio station would become a regular show not to mention a show with so many guests!! When we prepared for this special anniversary show we, again, were amazed as so many times before how much care and fun our former guests would pack into small presents they sent our way by ways of sound and music. Thank you all for being part of this for such a long time and with that we look forward to more shows to come and now enjoy the show. Thank you all for listening! Be good to yourself!

Welcome to the 60th instalment of the Fonia Radio Show. We looked for this special number for a special guest and were happy and thrilled to meet with DJ, selector, collector, artist, traveller and teddy bear doctor Daniel W. Best(@bestworks) right in the center of Berlin. As this (second weird in a row) year turns slowly to an end it was our special pleasure to talk with Daniel about all those exciting, hilarious and annoying things past, present and future. As with a mix set in which you always find new things, you have not heard before and which push new doors open for you - we took a ton of insights, references and tracks from this session. So sit down, relax and enjoy two hours of crate digging filled with conversation and sounds. Again for me this all showed “Music is the great uniter. An incredible force. Something that people who differ on everything and anything else can have in common.”

Thank you all for listening, have a great, peaceful holiday season ahead and we hope to meet all of you again in 2022!

Our special thanks go out to Mr.Sperling, thanks for the magic number, this show would not have happened without it!

We present in our show: TIMSON from Jena City alias @timsoncrime. As a kid he listened to so many styles of music, his mother gave him compact discs but instead he bought a lot of vinyl.

We welcomed in our radio show: ESO! from Berlin. The artist's name stands for „Das Elektronische Schwingkreis Orchester“. It is the project of composer, music producer, bass player, disc jockey and journalist Joerg Henning(@terribleinc) and sound engineer, vinyl cutter, and mastering specialist Frederic Stader(@djmaxximus). In autumn 2020 both released the album "AM, AUF UND IM WASSER" on LYT Recordings (@lytrecordings). For Joerg Henning this project closes a circle back to his early childhood, being raised in a house dominated by classical music and having lived through youth culture from punk, reggae to techno this album means returning to the roots of his love for music considering all aspects of his own musical journey since then. Together we had a lot of fun and talked about water, the early Berlin Rave days, and his love for ambient music.

We present in our show: ZAMBON from @polishcutouts. The Idea behind The Very Polish Cut-Outs: presentation and promotion of polish 70s and 80s music all over the world through releasing different compilations, mixes and by putting it in a new context trough editing. So cute that we had an interesting talk with Zambon, the originator of the label. As a polish dj & producer originally from Jelenia Góra he talked about his past and present and mentioned old classic tunes from Keks to Renata Lewandowska. Together with Kacper Kapsa they share their ideas to bring us glory moments on the dancefloor with forgotten polish music.

On one of those beautiful sunny days were pigeons make out and families of foxes stroll to the next beach, we had a long-distance call with Ian Simmonds (@ian-simmonds), straight out of Brighton.

Ian talked with us about all the things which are on top of his mind these days, new releases how to survive as an active artist in days of lockdown and we chatted a bit around his experiences in and with Japan.

In our first session after the lockdown, we welcomed IN THE STUDIO (again) @Spindyrella from Leipzig! Friendly weather, friendly guests, friendly drinks and so we enjoyed a friendly chat all around mysterious record collectors, early days in zoos and many many other things! Enjoy the well-curated mix, this one pairs splendidly with this great summertime all around. This all would probably not have been possible without the gracious donation of vinyl by @don-the-disco-dude, so big shout outs go to Donald D. Thank you all for listening and be good to yourself!

From a small village in the thuringian forest @kAUBL conquers the world with a taste of dub and afro beats. In his youth he started listening to metal and then quickly discovered the deep bass. Numerous synonyms followed and all ended in a musical cooking pot, from which he made a label called Glenn Dancer (@glenn-dancer-records). Check his afro tunes and rare grooves directly from his vinyl collection.

In the last session in the year 2019, we welcomed Costa from Halle in the studio. Born in Königsee he discovered the world of music and all their styles with his first Technics HiFi System. As a person grown-up with Drum n Bass Costa explains in our show his roots and proves his choice with a real eclectic DJ mix consisting of endless varieties of music. Besides his busy work life, he manages a regular radio show called "Tunesday Radioshow" every 4 weeks, Wednesdays from 10-12 pm on Radio Corax Halle with his partner in crime. With best regards to you all and our best wishes for you and your peeps in 2020, thank you all for listening and Enjoy the show!

The days get shorter and all around us turn a little chillier as it seems these days ... Our answer: a live vinyl set in the radio studio. The topic: one of our most favorite - Jazz in all its variations. The journey: a musical trip around the world. Jazz, not as the great redeemer, but as a window, a caleidoscope - just as colorful as this world can be. Enjoy the show!

We met Lucas Croon in April and from that moment on we decided to visit him in person. In the middle of this beautiful summer, we went to Düsseldorf to breathe in a breeze of music after 20 years. Voila, here comes a new FONIA radio show. Listen up, because we think there are very interesting musical developments to discover here since Kraftwerk, Rheingold and La Düsseldorf.

Stabil Elite (@stabileliteofficial), Bar - music projects that were created under the wings of Lucas Croon(@lucas-croon). Interesting constellations for the history-conscious renewal of Düsseldorf's musical scene - above all with a synthesizer sound in proper style, which does full credit to the city's name.

Drum roll!! For our 50th show, we welcomed Alex Pehlemann. Alex, born in Berlin-Lichtenberg switched a career as a ringer for the army club "Vorwärts" Frankfurt/Oder with the wild world of pop culture in the GDR.

Since 1993 he publishes the "Zonic", the magazine for "Kulturelle Randstandsblicke & Involvierungsmomente" and travels (very often eastwards) from Leipzig/Connewitz into the world, always checking for anything obscure and "schräg".

He told us what brought him from Greifswald to Leipzig and all the up and downs and turn arounds he experienced in growing into the author, curator, DJ and networker he is today.

If you make it to Leipzig, check the salon "Kulturny dom Lipsk/Salon Similde" where he spreads the word of "Neue Sorbische Kunst".

Check out Alex' selection of his favorite "Schräge Musik". This certainly goes well with a good old pilsener. Enjoy the show!

Welcome to the 48th fonia radio session. Pretty late in the super hot summer 2018 we met in the nice bar "HALLO MACHEN" with for chats laughs and some music! Anadol, the name after has been taken from an old-fashioned turkish car brand, is an instrumental synth-pop project by Gözen Atila, an artist, dj and keyboard player based in Berlin. She did a radio show for Açık Radyo 94.9 (@koltukcular-c-kmaz) and months ago she released a new album on cassette via Kinship (https://kin-ship.bandcamp.com/album/uzun-havalar). Enjoy an amazing collection of sounds and some words about turkey, berlin and all the artsy world around it! Hey, when you come next to Berlin, why not stop by at "HALLO MACHEN" have some delicious turkish food and drinks and listen to some music all right in the centre of Kreuzberg Berlin .

For the last show in the year 2017, the holidays just around the corner and so with a somewhat mellow mood and mind we welcomed in the radio show (@lutz-hartmann) for some smokey beers (yea, that Schlenkerla from Bamberg).

We talked with Lutz about his musical journey – starting with jazz played by his grandfather – via dji’ing and mixing to producing and running an own label (oldnew records - @oldnewrecords).

Enjoy some interesting insights into the world of music and some giggles and laughs (as always). After all this chitchat Lutz played a set which perfectly resembles the label motto of oldnewrecords “Fxxk Genres” (but keep it groovy).

Thanks for stopping by Lutz!

Now with the lunar year of the dog just out the door, we wish you all (wherever you are) the best of luck, fortune, big smiles, always a glass (or two), keep your headz up and be good to yourself!

It was on one of those friday's again! :-) One bottle of rather splendid vodka, two crates full of obscure, psych, jazz und sounds and a radio station at our disposal - and so it went.

Enjoy two hours filled with back to back obscure vinyl spinning by Inannia & Foolong.

Thank you all for listening. Be good to yourself!

The story starts with the fonia radio show 25 - that was the initial spark that lights the show you can hear here today. No fakes and as close to the original as possible, so basically the opposite what usually happens if @stachy takes on a track and grinds that one through the sound mincer ... It is a kind of proof of heritage for @stachy, as he has never really been a "jazz-dj" (but what does it mean to be a dj these days anyways?) This summer in cracow - the polish city kraków - THE cultural center of poland. Very close by the tourist routes there is a old jewish quarter - kazimierz. There it was, a shop transformed living room in a first floor appartment. And inside: vinyl!!! A person living there, a person with knowledge and a very fine selection of the last 40 years of pressed gold from poland. To make a long story short - that was the goldmine @stachy digged all the fine stuff in this show: polski jazz z winylu. for you.

On a beautiful spring evening we invited DJ Coins (https://www.facebook.com/coins.eins) to visit us in the OKJ radio studio. We had a friendly chat with him all around art (graffiti), fashion (Are clothing) and his various involvements into music projects . After all that talking DJ Coins played an outstanding set of finest beats and hiphop.

Thank you all for listening!

And check out Dj Coins label http://areclothing.com

On a cold afternoon close to christmas we met with Pete Onthecorner (@onthecornerrecords) in a noisy little asian restaurant in London for tea and looong chats all around his way from an anthropological music collector, over being a worker for a human rights organization in Africa to a founder of an own record label. We talked for hours, but had to squeeze all that into a small q&a to leave room for an exclusive Pete Onthecorner mix. So sit back,

relax and enjoy the journey!

Thank you all for listening! Be good to yourself!

Sometimes one is just not enough, right? Following our never-ending craving for stories told by sounds we invited for the last show in 2015 DJ Légères. Again (we had him in the studio about a year ago for the first time)we had the fun to spend an entire session with him in the radio studio as he took us to an acoustic travel around the world in 2 hours. We hope you will enjoy the ride! Thank you all for listening! And the best wishes to you and your loved ones for the coming 2016!!!

Welcome to the 35th installment of the fonia radio show. This time we turned once more to asia with the focus on ... Singapore! Since we knew only few things from earlier visits to Singapore like chili crabs and parks and stuff, so the more questions we had for our special guest: Dean, aka Funk Bast*rd (@funk-bast-rd)designer, architect and a founding member of the record label Darker Than Wax (@darkerthanwax)!

So sit back, relax and enjoy chit chats all around Singapore, Beats, Arts, Food and on top of that all an exclusive mix by Funk Bast*rd!

Thank you all for listening!

Sometimes all the things you like come together :-) That's how it was for us with the 34th session of the fonia radio show. As we both inannia and foolong LOVE sneakers and LOVE caps of all kinds and LOVE fat beats - what better choice could we have to invite a person uniting all three of those treats? Jan Hünniger aka SMFX is such a person, rooted in hiphop beats, all hands on the sowing machine to engineer outstanding und unique (yeah there is only 1 of each kind) 5panel caps AND collecting sneakers ... AND AND AND ... So we hope you will enjoy this session as much as we did !!! Thank you all for listening. Be good to to yourself!

Sunny weather, a nice meadow in the local park, some beers and most of all a guest who likes to introduce his world of arts & beats! What more can one ask? Well there is of course the add on treat of a special mix by mr. 3ZOO (say @dreizoo). We really enjoyed this show a lot and we hope you will like it as well!

Thank you all for listening! Be good to yourself!

One of the first warm days this year in Thuringia! So what to do when everyone else is out in the parks and hills bbq'ing sausages and the empty city is all quiet? We packed up all the noisy vinyl we love to head-nod to and locked ourselves with some Augustiner Helles into the radio station. A happy, frolic first of may, 2015.

Thank you all for listening! Be good to yourself!
