This environmental audio stream is broadcasting live from the 'End of the World' glacier in Northern Italy's Stelvio National Park. The solar-powered listening station has been continuously transmitting since July 2025 from ca. 2.700 metres above sea level in the Italian Alps. We tune in daily to the glacier's cyclical sonic material life, allowing us to witness meltwater rhythms, sediment flows, avalanches, landslides, animal life and the seasonal impacts of weather and tourism entering the microphones, in real time. Elemental Foley by Lia Mazzari will be on show as a solo exhibition at Microscope Gallery in Dalston, London from 10 - 26 September 2026.

This first night came live from London's Servant Jazz Quarters, and features Palestinian artist Haya Zaatry, who performs her debut album Rahawan, breaking down geographic and temporal borders.

Then, Tunisian artist Badiâa Bouhrizi presents her project KahruMusiqa, bringing together her works for the first time in 20 years.

And finally, Lebanese DJ and producer Sam Karam ensures the movement of bodies on the dance floor.

The Sonic Agent presented two live-broadcast nights in June 2023, which conjured our listening abilities and aimed to capture and reflect upon the evolution of sounds and music coming from Southwest Asia and North Africa. In partnership with Radio Alhara, Wave Farm and Soundcamp.

This episode features music made by Naviar's community inspired by Yamaguchi Seishi's poem “Into my midday nap, / again and again, / someone hammers a nail."

To have your music featured on the show, participate in the Haiku music challenge.

Thirty minutes of experimental music made in response to a weekly haiku poem, curated by Marco Alessi of Naviar Records and Naviar's international community of composers.

In this episode, Quintavant continues its series of concerts recorded during the Festival Novas Frequências, the seventh edition of which took place December in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This time: William Basinski: A Shadow in Time, recorded live in the Church of Carmo da Lapa; Marcos Campello, one of the greatest Brazilian guitar players that appeared last decade; and his last record, Onda de Beleza Natural. Plus two records released by Propósito Recs: Crunch Soar Rinse Repeat, Jonathan Gall’s new work and Armando Nascimento de Jesus, also known as “Fazedor de Presépio” with Xinelah dih Mankuh.

Investigations of the Brazilian experimental music scene via Rio De Janeiro's Quintavant label in collaboration with Audio Rebel. With live performances and exploratory sounds produced in the context of Brazil's strange political situation, curated by Francisco Mazza, Bernando Oliveira and Pedro Azevedo.

Introducing a special episode by Snezhana Reizen.

Antenna. The madness of the day...

Antenna is a series of works on transduction with the sole sound source taking place - radio waves. Here I was devoured by discontinuity and discharge inherent to the "miracle of the wireless. the omnipresence.. the overleaping of frontiers” - the radio, like it was marked by R. Arnheim.

This piece emerged in two phases: the first one can be called a transduction - a process of conveying potential energy from discharge into a signal. It was a spontaneous live radio-noise set recorded close to the closed shelter. This summer
I found myself stuck in between absence and presence in amplified senses,
confronting the avalanche of the noises erupting on us by this world, facing the chaos, “embracing alienation”, holding a degree of disbelief..
that this "disparity can be modulated”..

Yet, seeking the perceptual transmutation.

Biologists say there are two phases for the perception, so that after transduction of the signal, a transformation should take its place.
Following this logic, the second phase of this work appeared as an improvised procession with effects and filters - a real-time mix-ture, with slight subsequent recombinations.

If there's something one can call a ground for this piece, besides its sound source, it dwells upon a chance. It is a conversation with a present moment beyond the borders by a flying carpet of propagating radio waves.

"Antenna" was created drawing on ambisonic spatialisation with a mixed approach, so that some sounds move through in a chaotic manner, while the trajectories of others were meticulously calibrated. In doing so, I did not seek to determine the exact location or direction for each sound particle, but rather to underline the traces - their nomadic movements within the whole sphere of the revealed ensemble.

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.

Ambient, folk, ritual, electronic, dub, free jazz and exploratory works selected by BroodingSideOfMadness.

Vague Wanderings is a bi-monthly collaborative live show from the 24-26 cohort of School of the Damned, exploring imagined spaces, temporary autonomous zones, collecting field recordings and the fertile topsoil of vague terrains.

In the first hour, Gravity Waves: a mix which centres around a lengthy track by Lacrima called The Horror is Your Open Mouth, framed with tracks by Melinda Bronstein and some remixes by Nicholas Langley (aka Hz), from his reshapes LP on Third Kind.

In the second hour, Spectral Transmissions: Emergency Broadcasts. Emergencies happen every day in the UK and across the world. They can be caused by severe weather or other natural hazards, by deliberate actions, or as a result of accidents or infrastructure failure. They can be events that happen quickly and are over in a few hours, or they can develop and continue over the course of several days, months, or sometimes even longer.

The situation is once again becoming very uncertain. Automated telephone, fax, e-mail and text messages will be sent. The Emergency Network broadcast system will be activated. Site Sirens will activate. SIRENS will sound. Page not found. Unfortunately the requested page could not be found. This might be caused by a recent update to our website.

Commissioned new work from contemporary sound practitioners and other audio choices from experimental electronic collective The Spirit of Gravity.

This third episode features four artists who took part in a research residency at GMEA (Albi, France) as part of the Tekhnē, initiated in 2023:

• Gauthier Deplaude in an informal discussion with Benjamin Maumus about his project Horloges etc.. This work uses two quartz clocks and their electrical environment as the sole sound sources, within a unique technical setup created by the artist, without effects or attempts at control.

• Rodolphe Bourotte tested his latest music production software, COMMA, during his residency. He engages in an informal discussion about his program and insights from his residency week.

• Yann Leguay shares an anecdote about one of his early projects, Dead Media, which centered on reversing the recording process in a vinyl pressing factory in France that has since closed. He reflects on the notions of trace, media, and collective memory.

• Abigail Toll presents Where Words Fail: World Building With Data, Sound, and Co-creation, a sound and interdisciplinary visual study that explores algorithmic herd behaviour in nature and its connections to surveillance practices.

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.

This episode features new works by SCHiM, Dariusz Kociński, David Wallraf, NLC + EMERGE, Hans Castrup, Grey Frequency, Kloob, Rapoon, Murder Corporation, Odiv.

A selection of new experimental music and sound work from the international underground network Unexplained Sounds, curated by Raffaele Pezzella (Sonologyst).

A continuous stream of short musical creations, each under two minutes. Miniature masterpieces interwoven and occasionally interpolated, transitioning seamlessly from the briefest to the longest – a perpetual motion of sound.
