Tse Tse Fly Middle East #4 ▾

YOU ▾
All participants were invited to programme one hour with you- as the sole prompt. The result could be a mix of live and recorded (or entirely one or the other). There could be a visual element throughout, or partial, or none at all. An open structure welcoming coherent incoherence (or, incoherent coherence). A radio-but-not-really-radio event where you and you and you share the same nonplace.

Certified Tonk #1 ▾
Certified Tonk showcases improvised music as a shared act of discovery, where meaning appears without being forced, and ego drops away for creativity to take over. This series is an invitation to listen differently, stay present and let the music lead. Andrew Backhouse is an artist and radio geek based in North Yorkshire who has always loved radio and sees it as a place for exploration, not answers.

Merrie Melodias #2 - Free the Jazz ▾
We continue to listen to rare records released on the Soviet major label Melodia. This time – and not for the last time – the episode is dedicated to jazz in all its manifestations.
We'll start with the first jazz composition in the history of the USSR (the Uzbek band under Pavel Chaplevsky made this recording in 1935), listen to balearic improvisations from Ukraine, electro-boogie from Kazakhstan, jazz-mughams from Azerbaijan and then dive headfirst into free jazz from the Baltic States and faraway places in Russia. Let jazz be free!
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.
