As we settle into the new year, we are thrilled to present the first Mindcast of 2026. There is no one more fitting to open this chapter than Karsten Pflum.
Karsten’s history with Mindwaves Music runs deep; having just contributed to our Audio Scape V/A, he now returns for his sixth Mindcast. This sets a new record for the series, cementing his place as our most frequent and cherished guest.
For Episode 67, Karsten has curated an obscure and deeply experimental journey. Moving away from the conventional, the mix features a hand-picked selection of his favorite experimental producers alongside some of his own works—including a snippet of the soundtrack from his recently released movie „Yoda And The Witch".
Expect the unexpected: a sonic exploration that is as cinematic as it is challenging.
