Podcast Spotlight : ISN Radio

by on Sep.23, 2011, under Spotlight

Seasons come and go, people interests change and a lot of podcasts follow the same trend. Here today gone the next.
However there’s a special breed of broadcaster / DJ / promoter. One that always triumphs in the face of adversity. One that has a deep seeded love for the music and for the scene. One that year after year manages to surpass everyone’s expectations and improve on what was already a top notch experience.

Edwin Somnambulist of ISN Radio is no ordinary human being. Some say he naturally faces magnetic north, and that if he could be bothered, he could crack the Da Vinci Code in 43 seconds. All we know is that he’s the host of the amazing weekly podcast ISN Radio.

ISN Radio took first flight in the late 1990s, and with a few sabbatical breaks the show has been on the air for over 10 years. At this point in time, the 200th episode is on the very near horizon, and I’m sure it will be a celebration.

Edwin certainly has an ear for picking great music, but that should come as no surprise as he’s not only a DJs in the local industrial clubs, he also has his hand in promoting and organizing many local concerts, and club nights. Neurodance and NeuInstallation are both projects he is involved in.

What you will likely hear on ISN Radio is a selection of  the latest in industrial music with a sprinkling of classical industrial, to taste. There’s an unmistakeable bias towards harsher beats  over mellower melodies though to be fair a synthpop track will occasionally find their way on the playlists.
Along with the fantastic music selection, the editorial content and the his cynicism on the show is priceless. From many years of listening to the show my conclusion is that Edwin pretty much knows everything there is to know about industrial music. Full stop.

Visit ISN Radio and stay a while. There’s lots of great content, and new podcasts are released every Monday.
