To You They Are Birds, To Me They Are Voices in the Forest land on the Discrepancies airwaves with a special mixtape of influences and headspaces.

A nocturnal drift through light/dark zones: concealed foliage and magnetic tape hiss, devotional pulses and fourth-world residue. A plethora of mixed signals folding into one another like damp pages in a forgotten field notebook.

Broadcast time as camouflage. Check their beautiful album Primordial, released by Sucata Tapes (Discrepant), October 2025.

Lapping At Your Shore is a computer program which organises the composition of recorded sounds in realtime. “I have found it beneficial to utilise the computers ability to make arbitrary decisions without being mediated by a subconscious. Of course I set the conditions, so there is a poetry there, in the algorithm itself. It's an interplay between chance and being.” More information can be found at andrewford.eu.pn

In this extract from the day, an unreleased album sent to us by Neil Luck and Benedict Taylor.

Neil Luck is a composer, performer, and director based in London. His work often explores the pathos and interaction between live human performance and multimedia, and attempts to frame the act of music making as something curious, or weird, or useful, or spectacular in and of itself.

Benedict Taylor is a solo violist, violinist and composer.

A 7-hour radio event broadcast live from the Resonance Extra studios on the 29th January 2023, featuring live performances and new and exclusive audio works.

For this episode, Mitamine Lab has cooked a mix with lots of dub gems, recent releases and some field recordings inspired by the works of British painter Michael Kirkham.

"Kirkham probes uncomfortable truths about contemporary life, staging his brand of psychological portraiture amidst dim interiors, still lifes, and scenes of urban malaise. While invested in traditions that skew niche and graphic (in all senses of the term), the experience he creates is closer to the unflappable genericness of Koons, the pathos of Balthus, the medium-specificity of Nicole Eisenman, or, occasionally, the despairing filmic worlds of contemporaries like Gaspar Noe, Andrea Arnold, or the Safdie brothers, than the lineages from which he so readily borrows." – Harkawik

Mitamine Lab is a culture laboratory based in Mexico City which blends sound archives with contemporary music and literature.

Мартин Џорлев – Музиката е отепувачка

This episode captures the closing moments of Kanal 103’s marathon broadcast marking 81 years of Macedonian Radio, on 28.12.2025.
After more than 15 hours on air and a never-ending closing live session, the scheduled program slowly dissolved into an open situation. Recorded around 4am, as the night tipped into morning, the studio shifted into a different mode. Using the station computer, Martin Djorlev began mixing live from multiple internet sources, navigating streams, fragments, and digital noise in real time.

What emerged was an unplanned deep drone / ambient mix, imperfect, glitchy, unbalanced, marked by signal cracks and bleed from an old mixer worn down by years of use. Slow and immersive, the sound hovers somewhere between exhaustion and focus. A live navigation through online audio, shaped by the moment, the hour, and the accumulated energy of the broadcast.

Martin Djorlev is a central figure in the new Macedonian music scene. Active across projects, genres, and formats, he plays almost nightly, releases constantly, and moves between live performance, composition, and experimentation. This set reflects that momentum, created without preparation, without pause, as if there were no tomorrow.

Recorded live at Kanal 103, Skopje.
End of broadcast, beginning of another space.

However, at the end of the show the mood changes somewhat and ends with bold experiments in the field of free jazz with a glance at the academic avant-garde – it is a rain cloud on the horizon, which takes your breath away with its elegance, impetuosity and pomposity. Happy long-awaited spring!
