Willkommen im Magnetbanduntergrund! ▾
The publication Magnetizdat DDR, Magnetbanduntergrund DDR 1979–1990 (2023, Verbrecher Verlag) tells the story of this magnetic counterculture. Inspired by this, we will explore the musical subversions of the late GDR in three acts over three days. Curated by Judith Behre and Florian Bräunlich
A live broadcast from Hamburg featuring GAJEK, Jan Jelinek & Frank Bretschneider. Independent music productions were banned in the GDR in terms of production, distribution, and sales. However, countless groups such as Der Demokratische Konsum, Zwitschermaschine, Schleim-Keim, and Kein Talent defied these regulations imposed by the workers' and farmers' state. They took it upon themselves to play their (mostly homemade) instruments and recorded their compositions directly onto tape: unorthodox punk met lo-fi experimental rock, stumbling electronics met grinding pop constructions, conceptual minstrelsy met infernal noise.

Littoral Transmissions #76 - Headwater (Waulud’s Bank Remix) ▾
A circumambulatory attunement to the River Lea where it rises amidst chalk fields. Leagrave to the south-east and Marsh Farm to the west. Beneath unfurling clouds, horses graze the long grass growing atop Waulud's Bank, a neolithic earthwork reverberating with ongoing community.
We follow the river along the glacial ridge and Icknield Way, past Linbury Meads and water meadows on into Luton before returning once more to the river's source.
In both live performance and a monthly broadcast Littoral Transmissions evoke estuarine, marshland, boggy sonic impressions with an extended focus on our local River Lea as it passes through London.
This piece finds us in contrary flow, with an extended meditation on the Lea's emergence and its co-minglings of land and water, featuring field recordings and improvisations made in situ, combined with later responses recorded downstream.
Littoral Transmissions meander through the sonic landscape of the River Lea from Stonebridge Lock to Leamouth. Recordings from the field converge with layers of sound to create an aural impression of the navigation.

Radio Concrete #54 - Lost Letter by Snezhana Reizen ▾
In this episode, Lost Letter, a piece composed by Snezhana Reizen. Here are her words about it:
To describe the process in which I was involved here, I would need to convey some details of the setting and the basic materials that formed the backbone of this piece.
In the beginning, there were noises appearing between unconnected wires (an additional and sort of premortal material to my upcoming album Parallel Movements). I found some of the themes this material suggested, such as the desperate seeking of connection in disconnection or beauty in noise or meaning in life full of war, fairly corresponding with what is going on in general or what I can perceive from my current environment in particular.
So these sources were fertilised with Israeli radio, military helicopters severing the night sky, smithereens of debris and bird’s voices, and various sounds of 'human and not' presence and not.
There were some attempts to reverse signifiers of sound in an acousmatic manner so that rolling stones of “go-game” appeared as breathing or speeded human heartbeat as erupting calvary. Water, though, was included in its literalness as a fragrance of hope to the deserted. The water here is Sicilian — a good memory from the Oooh and RARA improvisation art festivals.
But besides processing concrete sounds, closer to the end, I allowed myself a bit of sound synthesis.
Lost Letter is the second chapter of my new series Cryptography. Find out more here.
Radio Concrete by Hagai Izenberg is a monthly experimental radio show focusing on live mixing and processing of field recordings together with contemporary music and soundscapes.

Merrie Melodias #10 - Muddle Instead of Music ▾
This episode is dedicated to academic Soviet music, its avant-garde and national currents. You will hear some stunning works by Russia's major experimental composers – Sofia Gubaidulina, Galina Ustvolskaya, Faraj Karayev and Alfred Schnittke.
Almost half of the programme, however, is dedicated to music with an equally complex narrative by composers from Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, digitised from rare LPs from my own collection. The programme concludes with an intricate and exotic late-Soviet piece by Siberian composer Boris Mourashkin, which he characterises as ‘bio-energetic’.
Uzbekistan-based DJ and boss of the experimental TOPOT label Eugenie Galochkin presents rare vinyl rips from the Soviet Melodia label. Melodia has released music from all around the world: from obscure Baltic electronica and free jazz from Siberia; to synth-pop from Tajikistan and academic avant-garde from Ukraine. The series will explore how national and cultural characteristics are embedded in musical language.

tekhnē #12 - Pedro Oliveira ▾
This twelfth episode features an interview with Brazilian sound artist and sound studies scholar Pedro Oliveira, who is based in Berlin. Oliveira works at the intersection of decolonial and sonic thought. During his tekhnē residency at TRAFO, he further developed his ongoing research on borders, migration, and bodies, expanding a long-term project that brings these themes together.
The interview was recorded in Szczecin following Oliveira's performative lecture marking the conclusion of his residency. Conducted by Piotr Tkacz, editor of the Glissando quarterly, the conversation explores the relationship between Oliveira's artistic practice and art-as-research, the evolution of his creative work, and the ways in which sonic technologies intersect with contemporary border regimes and migration policies.
This episode also includes excerpts from several of Oliveira's sound works, including DESMONTE (with Fernanda Lira), a live performance with Mauricio Takara at the AdK Berlin in 2023, and an unreleased experiment from Dubwise Machine Listening.
Bi-monthly insights into the activities of the European project tekhnē, which started in 2023. The series showcases a selection of artists who share and discuss their work and listen to recorded material. By putting the focus on the user rather than the developer, this project aims to explore the emancipatory potential of technology in music and sound art. Technology as an art of craft, appropriating and transforming existing tools, to imagine multiple ways of creative misuse. tekhnē is a collaborative project, co-funded by the European Union.

Radia #1090 - Startalk by Corey De’Juan Sherrard Jr ▾
This is a contribution by Wave Farm.
Startalk is an audio/visual radio art piece depicting a network and history of seven independent Black radio stations in the US through paint, chalk, and sound.

The audio component for Startalk was first broadcasted on Wave Farm’sWGXC 90.7 FM in July 2025, and the visual component first showed at Sanman Studios in November 2025.
Corey De’Juan Sherrard Jr. engineers a developing system for composing songs and generating objects that respond to the deficit of black post-capitalist propaganda within a world culture. He is a School for Poetic Computation alum and graduated from the University of Houston with a BS in Digital Media in 2020.
Sherrard has exhibited visual and sound works at Sanman Studios, Sabine Street Studios, Cleve Carney Museum of Art, Basket Books and Art, and the George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center and has performed at Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, DiverseWorks, and Blaffer Art Museum.
