Roman Flügel - XLR8R Influences Podcast 08

If you want to be Flugelized, we have something for you! This is not your typical DJ mix. This is the mix that will teach you a bit about music history (at least electronic) and where that beautiful Flugel’s weirdness is coming from. This is what Roman said about the mix: Music has been my companion since I was a child. I like to see it as a big puzzle or mashup with thousands of pieces. But what is connecting the dots? I think music is some kind of emotional amplifier that is reaching beyond what words can express. That’s why I enjoy music that (at least) I consider as unique, weird, and soulful whether it be jazz, rock, electronic, or classic. My podcast is trying to connect some of the audible experiences of my life that are constantly hunting my mind on a subconscious level and maybe manifest somewhere in my own catalog.
