The acclaimed Electronic Circus concert from 2009 is now available on DVD. The concert was not originally filmed for DVD release, but for a personal record of the event, so the footage is a little grainy. However, it's quite watchable and the audio and the performances throughout are terrific, and it's why, with fans often requesting its release, the artists agreed to this DVD being made available as an ‘Official Bootleg’. For those who witnessed the event, here is the uncut and unedited concert to savour again, save for a few inserted graphics. For those who couldn't be there, here is the opportunity to see and hear these three great musicians perform together in concert.

Peter Mergener - Chip Meditation 2025

Artist: Peter Mergener
P: 2025
Chip Meditation was one of Software's most successful IC albums in the 80s. Peter Mergener was primarily responsible for the music at the time and is now celebrating the 40th anniversary of a cult album that set standards in the electronic music scene with Chip Meditation 2025.
Music to dream to. That's what electronic music listeners associate with Chip Meditation.
On Chip Meditation 2025, the Software-typical sequences (trademark!) bubble out of the choir sounds, intertwining with warm pads and building up to a successful Berlin School track. The sounds develop fluidly, with occasional effects and touches of color reminiscent of Klaus Schulze or Tangerine Dream, gaining depth through the pad sounds.
Peter Mergener thus knows how to perfectly showcase these traditional Berlin School style elements in a contemporary, full-bodied sound, creating an atmosphere where you can "bathe" like in the old days.
Fans have had to wait a long time for Peter to revive the "old days."
Sweet dreams!

Ian Boddy + Harald Grosskopf - Doppelgaenger

Artist: Ian Boddy & Harald Grosskopf
P: 2025
DIN 91
LTD 500 Copies
A new collaboration between Boddy and legendary German drummer & synthesist Harald Grosskopf. Grosskopf on Drums and Synths.
What do mean you didn't know that Ian Boddy is basically the Klaus Schulze of Sunderland? Well, now you do! 70s German electronic music has been a huge inspiration for Boddy and that's evident in his sound, although he makes his particular brand of kosmische music very much his own. Here he is collaborating with krautrock legend Harald Grosskopf who provides his keyboard skills and percussion as Boddy sets the dials of his synthesizers towards the heart of the sun. Berlin school music pulled into the present day and beamed lightyears into the future.

Ian Boddy + Dave Bessell - Polarity

Artist: Ian Boddy & Dave Bessell
P: 2024
DIN 87
LTD 500 Copies
With the DiN label celebrating its 25th anniversary it’s perhaps important to remember that one of the founding principles of the imprint was to encourage musical collaborations between different artists. Indeed label boss Ian Boddy has previously collaborated with eight separate musicians, including such luminaries as Robert Rich, Erik Wøllo, Chris Carter, Markus Reuter and Mark Shreeve (as ARC). Thus when the UK based Awakenings electronic music concert series invited Boddy to perform a gig alongside Dave Bessell an opportunity arose for a new, untried musical collaboration.
Bessell of course is no stranger to followers of DiN records with his solo work, albums alongside Parallel Worlds and his part in synth supergroup Node. Both artists played solo sets before joining forces for a stunning 60 minute joint performance. This album features the latter set which is split into two longer sections followed by their ambient encore.
Opening proceedings with retro abstract synth meanderings it’s not long before Boddy’s signature Ondes voice shines through the gloom and a calm, gentle section sees Bessell join in with the beautiful tones of his Aum guitar. After a brief ambient interlude Boddy begins to build a wall of sequencers brick by brick with Bessell soloing on Minimoog before the music all comes crashing back down to the eerie tones that started this set.
The second piece begins with unusual, piquant harmonic progressions from Bessell overlaid with pizzicato percussion. There follows a lengthy, extended sequencer session which is again meticulously constructed by Boddy and his arsenal of modular synths. Whilst Bessell provides an arc of ever rising chordal pads Boddy continuously twists and turns the ostinato patterns as this section rises to a monumental sonic climax.
Following such hectic, rhythmic textures the duo opt for a gentle, blissful encore with each artist improvising against each other with warm, analogue chords and pads.
Polarity again shines a light on the wonderful opportunities collaborations can offer, especially in a live performance where each artist has to not only play but also listen to, and respond to the other performer.
