Phat interview with Ronny Pries
category: music [glöplog]
RP Interview. Shameless promotion, so please skip if you hate such things.
In the next issue of my Berlin based radio show Radio Irrtum! there will be an interview with Ronny Pries. Also there may be the once in a lifetime chance to listen to H0ffman's "Vaperous" soundtrack in Hifi stereo, as he was kind enough to give me access to his original DAW export file - thank you!!
But back to the interview with Ronny. I have only 1h of airtime and the show is primary about playing weird underground music. So if you know Ronny (and me!), it's already obvious: That interview didn't fit in ;) – so:
The complete almost 40min conversation will be/is here on my Peertube (password protected until around Sat, 2025-06-07, 20:30 Berlin time)

It's "multimedia" enhanced like running on a CD32 or something: There are English subtitles and I injected some accomplishing info and animations. Doesn't look much, but I can assure you, it took some time ;) .
We aren't talking that much about the demoscene or making music for Demos (which, if done well, needs a special skill set… maybe another time). No, these are almost 40 wisdom saturated minutes about...
The reason for all this is this vinyl Ronny dropped in early May and which may be found here (yeah, "campdown" is a thing but you might do better than that, right?):
The radio show itself with among others RP's music and a small excerpt from the interview will air this Saturday at Alex Berlin FM 20:00 Berlin time / UTC+2) and is announced here (including frequencies and stream link - Fediverse users know it first):
Yes it's German language, as the station is forcing me to do so…
And that's basically what I have to say. Enjoy!
Well one more personal thing. Forgot to visit the Berlin Demoscene Meetup @ C-Base Berlin end of May. Alter, ich bin manchmal dermaßen verpeilt und wäre echt gern da gewesen :(

- how Tracker influence music making
- what Bitwig needs
- are basedrums overrated?
- 303 tricks you didn't hear about yet
- importance of close listening
- influence of Chicaco and Detroit to modern club music
- why do we still do music — nowadays?
- creativity and frustration
- importance of sound asthetics
- art vs teality
- Netlabel Culture
- about the material value of music
- and much more.
