Show overview
De Machine has been publishing since 2018, and across the 8 years since has built a catalogue of 304 episodes. That works out to roughly 240 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 42 min and 52 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a NL-NL-language Music show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 45 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2025, with 52 episodes published. Published by NPO Luister / VPRO.
