Dancers have to train hard and perform with a rough edge, conveying emotions with as much acting ease as possible. At the end it also requires choreography, clothing, lighting and the appropriate set with lots of helping hands. The bigger the show, the more people are involved. With a few exceptions, it also needs sound, rhythm or just a appropriate soundscape. Sometimes existing music is used because it is structurally well suited to the piece. Other times, working with composers and musicians is the best way to put your own stamp on the piece bringing things to the point.
@sandrow_m has been working with choreographers and dance piece makers for several years. With this compilation he presents 20 different pieces of music that were either used because of their suitability or were created. There is no attempt to present the entire spectrum, which would not be possible in 90 minutes anyway. Nevertheless the compilation contains various styles, for which, with a little patience, you can try to find corresponding film material on the Internet to complete your listening experience.

@credit00ratlife is still doing his thing with PUT THE FUNK BACK IN 2 TECHNO, saving you from the horrors of today’s life with a bunch of stirring tracks to dance against oppression. On his seventh EP for Uncanny Valley the Leipzig based funkster finds solace in his craft, doing what he does best. And that is to make dance music that is both undeniably catchy and blessed with an ever-surprising range of ideas and styles.
What all the tracks have in common is that they have been written by someone who is deeply committed to the roots of dance music. On top of that, he has the enviable ability to find titles that already give you a hunch of sound and message of the tracks, even before you listen to them. Be it the title track with its wild Detroit rhythms and piano sound bits or the closer YOU NEED 2 CHILL, a still highly danceable ode to 90s chill out floors. While the stomping BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT gets use of Credit 00’s own voice, the chords heavy CHURCH FOR THE RENEGADES is a perfect example of inventive use of vocal samples.
All in all, it’s music you pretty much can’t help but love. Also, don’t miss a closer look at the front and back cover, which are full of references and iconographies from the history of dance music. In typical Credit 00 style, it’s a super entertaining way for the artist to give credit to a lot of his influences.

Fourteen years of Uncanny Valley - fourteen years of resisting the predictable, the neatly packaged crap that keeps electronic music stuck in a loop. Dresden's bastard child of a label has survived, thrived and kept its teeth by refusing to be just another name in the endless mess of club culture.
And now Carl Suspect, co-label boss and sonic agitator, is opening up the archive and piecing together something raw, urgent and unfiltered. “14 Years of Uncanny Valley” is a journey through the dark corridors of house, jazz-funk, Italo, ambient and techno - an uncompromising, sweaty ride that feels less like a retrospective and more like a battle cry. And it's all on cassette, because fuck your algorithm-friendly playlists.
This isn't nostalgia. This isn't a victory lap. It's proof that Uncanny Valley still doesn't play by the rules. Carl Suspect puts it on cassette - the rest is noise.

As Christmas approaches, UV Radio host @philipp-demankowski continues a cherished tradition with the annual Ambient Special. This year marks a milestone—it’s already the tenth episode of this soothing journey. In a busy year when UV Radio managed just three regular shows, this special provides a rare but reliable moment of calm. With the state of the world as it is, those 90 minutes of wallpaper music might be exactly what you need. So, find a quiet spot, unwind, and let the sounds envelop you. Merry Ambient Christmas, everyone!

After her debut EP for Hivern Discs, shtum is very happy to welcome Inga Mauer to the family. The Russian born but constantly travelling artist delivers the goods in form of four dust-dry and psychedelic Techno tracks that celebrate the obscurities.
Starting with “Dno” she sets the tone with an anthem for dark skies and basements. “Silences” is captivating with its dysfunctional sounds. After the whirling dance of “My Flights Without You” you can’t help but feel a little dizzy. And “Dystopia” feels like hypnotic Techno with a punk attitude.

From Sweden with Italo to Dresden with love. Stockholm's @djdjcity drops his first release on Dresden's Uncanny Valley with the COSMICOMICS EP, a 100% fun record for all the senses, deeply inspired by Italo Calvino's iconic short story collection.
COSMICOMICS borrows its name from a collection of short stories written by Italian author Italo Calvino, first published in Italian in 1965. The stories have inspired DJ City to a record that aesthetically draws from 80s Italo Disco and 70s science fiction films. In the book, each story is based on a scientific fact about the world and the cosmos whilst using fiction to ask how we understand it. Where Calvino's stories are comical and absurd, DJ City surrenders to the sublime and romantic and moves further into the metaphysical world that Calvino created to come up with three energetic and melodic tracks bursting heavily with fantasy and drama. Deeply rooted in dance music’s history, they shine with Hi-NRG-vibes, strict dancefloor commitment and little easter eggs like that Drexciya-reference in COSMICOMICS.
The cover of the record is a painting from 2020 by Swedish artist Jens Fänge called THE INN. We see a man in front of the entrance to a Mediterranean-style building and a woman in a window on the upper floor. The picture seems to have been broken up into several dimensions, and abstract details make it difficult for the viewer to know exactly what and when the scene is taking place. When shown in Shanghai, the painting was censored by government agents and had to be taken down. A testament to the power of the image. Perhaps it shows our main character, perhaps it shows us the author or the artist. Depending on who listens, who reads and who looks, a multitude of universes open.

Here's the new radio show straight out of the studio from none other than @stachy, a true legend who has been living his daily life in Dresden for a few years now, but has a career that spans all sorts of roots in music, with a respectable background in hip-hop and a decent career in pop music under his belt. To this day, he just can't get enough of music, be it in an academic context, as a versatile electronic music producer, a passionate lover of ambient and vaporwave or as a fun DJ. For the show, he dives deep into his Polish roots with this special version of Baltic Balearica, which he calls Bigos a la Balearic. Have fun!

It’s already the ninth episode of that little tradition. In a shameful year for UV Radio with only three regular shows, at least this is something we can rely on. Chances are high that you’ll need those 90 minutes of wallpaper music regarding what is happening in the world right now. So lie down and relax. Merry Ambient Christmas, everyone!

Not only is he one of the nicest people in Alt-Stralau, he also has the best taste in music beyond the blue lagoon. In addition to lawnmower symphonies and ambient cacophonies, Fabian has also acquired a veritable collection of Hawaiian music. Reason enough for Philipp to invite his good friend for the long awaited comeback of Uncanny Valley Radio to offer us a handpicked selection of traditional slack-key guitar ballads and ukulele serenades. Immerse yourself in the rich and vibrant world of Hawaiian music, where drums are strictly forbidden and swaying palm trees and crystal clear waters come alive through the rhythms. Aloha!

As always at Christmas, Philipp gives you 90 minutes of contemplation with the annual Ambient Special. A lot has happened again this year in the land of wallpaper music, with Ambient taking another decisive step towards dominating pop music with new sounds and exciting artists. A development that will probably continue next year, apparently also because people are in good need of all forms of escape from reality right now. If you feel this too, be sure to check out part one to seven. And by the way, the cover is an impression of the beautiful Coyote Buttes in Arizona. Merry Ambient Christmas everyone!

Dancers have to train hard and perform with a rough edge, conveying emotions with as much acting ease as possible. At the end it also requires choreography, clothing, lighting and the appropriate set with lots of helping hands. The bigger the show, the more people are involved. With a few exceptions, it also needs sound, rhythm or just a appropriate soundscape. Sometimes existing music is used because it is structurally well suited to the piece. Other times, working with composers and musicians is the best way to put your own stamp on the piece bringing things to the point.
@sandrow_m has been working with choreographers and dance piece makers for several years. With this compilation he presents 20 different pieces of music that were either used because of their suitability or were created. There is no attempt to present the entire spectrum, which would not be possible in 90 minutes anyway. Nevertheless the compilation contains various styles, for which, with a little patience, you can try to find corresponding film material on the Internet to complete your listening experience.
