On November 5, 2025, I will be supporting Addi Wetzel’s painting exhibition on the theme of “The silent poetry of trees and landscapes” with a few of my songs.

This is now the second time that the artist Addi Wetzel has asked me for musical support. I feel very honored and am of course happy to do so!
I’m looking forward to it!

My first song of my concert at Café F. this year was “Right Now” – completely unplugged – without microphones and without amplification. For those interested: I recorded the entire concert with my Zoom H6 and the video with my GoPro 9.

I feel gain very honored to play 2 songs with my daughter Sarah at the ELC. One of the 2 songs is an original composition that has never been performed in public as a duet. We are excited to see how our performances will be received and are really looking forward to it.
The location is very special, because the stage is right next to the brown coal mine dump. A total of 10 artists from different musical genres will be performing. So come along – there’s something for everyone!
Admission is from 18:00. The contest starts at 19:00.

By the way: There is an online voting available. So please support us! You can listen to small sound examples of every participant!

You’ll find it here: https://www.radioerft.de/

SONIC LiQUID – New – Concert – Walzwerk – Pulheim

Concert Pulheim Walzwerk 221031

You can’t imagine how much I’m looking forward to the next gig with my band SONIC LiQUID! Unbelievable that it’s been almost 3 years since we played the last concert!

In that time we had to cancel gigs due to Corona and said goodbye to both our bass player in mid-2022 and our drummer in early 2022. When things started to get going again, I first supported my daughter musically until the national competition “Jugend musiziert”, where she won a fantastic 2nd prize in the category “pop singing”.

Now we are back as SONIC LiQUID, rejuvenated and motivated, and of course we hope that our fans have remained loyal to us and will celebrate a reunion with us on Halloween in the great location Walzwerk in Pulheim.

As you can see on the poster, there will be 2 other bands (“DRUCKPHASE” and “7 SEKUNDEN ZU SPÄT”) and we think there will be something for everyone.

„Waiting fo a better time“ – SONIC LiQUID – live at the “Eifeler Musikcafé”

This new version of our song “Waiting for a better time” was recorded live during a concert of us (still in the old line-up) in the “Eifeler Musikcafé Schmidtheim” in Germany in November 2019.
Fundamentally, the subject of this song unfortunately still fits today more than ever!

SONIC LiQUID – Song “Burning Fields” – LIVE – more relevant than ever

Posted by Robertartley on February 28, 2022
Posted in: Music. Tagged: German Radio, Indie Rock, poll, radio, Robert Artley, Rock Music, Song Strong Enough, SONIC LiQUID, Strong enough, WDR, WDR2, WDR2 POP!. Leave a comment

This song is the first song on the EP “SiNS” of my band SONIC LiQUID. The theme of the song is in our opinion just at the end of February 2022 more topical than ever, because we are just dancing again after so many years on “Burning Fields” in Europe. Unbelievable!!!

By the way, we had submitted this song to a radio station some time ago, but it was rejected in favor of another song of ours on the grounds that it was not contemporary, among other things.

What can we say – this is definitely not the case, because violence and war are unfortunately always and everywhere in the world.

The song was recorded during a concert in Eifeler Musikcafé Schmidtheim, Germany.Here’s a request to support my band SONIC Liquid!

I suppose the picture says it all :-).

Of course: Singing – what else!

I had some time on my own during the recording session in the studio of the Donots in Münster (September 2018).

Here’s a request to support my band SONIC Liquid!

One of our songs (“Strong Enough”) will be presented this evening on the radio (WDR2) as part of the program “WDR2 POP!” From 8:00 p.m.

This song is also still available in full this week for voting on the WDR website. Here the link:

https://www1.wdr.de/radio/wdr2/musik/szene-im-westen/abstimmung-szene-nrw-band-voting-100.html

So if you have the time, I would be very happy if you would vote for our song.
If you would forward the link to as many friends as possible, that would of course be mega!

So now that’s enough, but “rattling is known to be part of the craft”.

Have fun and thank you in advance!

„Waiting fo a better time“ – SONIC LiQUID

I played my song with other bands more than 25 years ago and this live music video with SONIC LiQUID is also a bit older (recorded in the BLUESHELL Club, Cologne, November, 2016), but the topic is still relevant!
I remain positive and optimistic and I strongly believe that better times will come!
The latest version (which sounds completely different!) was never recorded. So this new version can only be heard live – whenever this will be in these CORONA times!!).

I was driving in my convertible.

The weather was absolutely great and I was in the mood for my own karaoke car version with a sample of our SONIC LiQUID song “Just to please me”.

I had a lot of fun!
