Did you ever happen to sit on a table richly set with various yummy pieces of food but didn't know what to pick?

I'll set up this table in a musical way for ya all in

RADIO IRRTUM!

and guide you through the picking process ;)

--- ↓↓↓ Deutsch Version below unten ↓↓↓ ---

The next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will arrive this Saturday, 2026/05/09, 8:00pm UTC+2/Berlin time/CET. On Alex Berlin at DAB+ K12D in #Berlin/Brandenburg and worldwide @ https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

A German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music. Don't worry about the #GermanLanguage aspect - this is about #music!

So what yummy music pieces are there? Something from...

- #neojazz
- #Bonkwave (or, well, maybe not?)
- dragging #triphop.py #Beatz
- Neo Cut Up #Turntablelism or call it #PlunderPhonics from Berlin
- innovative #Bristol #Bass
- dark #EBM Techno
- Glitchy #IDM Beatz from various sources
- #MusiqueConcrete based on recordings of animal #BoneFlutes
- A quieter hefty and large #Punk section will be there
- also #Trombone #Jazz

I will discuss various topics like the mysterious musical vibe place which exists independent of time + space. Or the danger of falling victim to a lust killer and suddenly die – especially in spring 🌺 .

Besides, there will be lots of #CreativeCommons content, cuz music wants 2b free. Lots of tracks played aren't on #Spotify - yes, this is not a music industry friendly place. And most important: I've got the cutest #FediArtists there are, if I may say that - like @SamanthaJaneSmith , @sixumbrellas or @[email protected] (under construction at da mo).

I'll post playlist + manuscript later here. Having questions? I'll gladly answer. Just ask. CU all on Saturday! :)

Did you ever like the groove of a music track, starting to dance to it but then you stumble because the beat seems to reset itself randomly? I've got a bunch of those tracks this time in

RADIO IRRTUM! !!

The next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will arrive this Saturday, 2026/04/11, 8:00pm UTC+2/Berlin time/CET. On Alex Berlin at DAB+ K12D in #Berlin/Brandenburg and worldwide @ https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

A German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music. Don't worry about the #GermanLanguage aspect - this is about #music!

So what's in it?

- #AlternativePop
- #offline Music
- cluttered #Beats
- super #slowBass with DnB elements
- #UKGarage
- #fingerdrumming
- #ByteBeat from #Math formulas
- #microtonal #MathPunk
- #Punk of various flavors (Post~, Garage~)
- #livingroom music from Brazil and Lebanon

On top I will pronounce words wrong at an embarrassing amount, & play stuff that isn't available at #Spotify, which simply shows how much this service sucks.

Besides unusual rhythmic structures there will be examples of microtonal music (explained even!) – if you followed the music news the last weeks you may already know which project will be featured.
Featured are #FediverseMusicians as well, like @ScottHuehnerkrisp or @herrkaschke .

But a very special one among those #fediartists will be @stephan.
This is probably your ONLY chance to have a listen to one piece of his offline album "Strategies against Algorithms" if you don't already own it. It will only be played during the aired show, it won't be contained within the archive version! You know: That's what "offline" is all about.

I'll post playlist + manuscript later here. Having questions? I'll gladly answer. Just ask. CU all on Saturday! :)

@august Most Germans don't know this, but the German language had that too:

Today, it's Onkel (uncle) and Tante (aunt) regardless of which side of your parents they're from.

But we also have Oheim (which is widely regarded as an archaic word for uncle, but originally meant maternal uncles only) and Muhme (maternal aunt).

Vetter and Base are uncommon words for cousins (male & female) these days, but could also refer to paternal uncles and aunts back in the day.

Ich lerne Deutsch und habe eine Frage (zwei wirklich😉 ).

Do the following sentences mean the same thing? (As far as I know, they do). And, is one preferred over the other?

1. Ich musste gestern einen Pullover kaufen.

2. Ich habe gestern einen Pullover kaufen müssen.

Danke schön!

Dealing with a DHL delivery from Germany, I’m treated to their German terms and conditions—in German.

Not being a German speaker, I translated it automatically (Waterfox). This line seems too accurate (for how I’ve received packages): “Smaller (suitable) shipments may be placed in the house mailbox be thrown in.” (translated) 😅

The original German: “Kleinere (passende) Sendungen dürfen in den Hausbriefkasten eingeworfen werden.”

I think the PDF introduced a line break that results in this unusual sentence structure.

Translating it without the line break (on a different device (iOS) with a similar line break translation) results in something sounding much more reasonable: “Smaller (matching) shipments may be dropped into the house mailbox.”

Still, these translations vary quite a bit. Also, this phrase does not pertain to the U.S. as only the United States Postal service uses the mail box for parcel deliveries.
