First Light's Third Space #11 - Adriaan de Roover & Hayley Suviste

This episode of Third Space features sonic explorations of Brussels and Manchester, with field recordings and local music curated and compiled by Adriaan de Roover and Hayley Suviste. In the first hour, Adriaan walks us through the Belgian capital via found sounds and music.

In a novel take on the Third Space format, the musical elements of Adriaan's mix have been drawn from a single artist - Brussels hip hop collective, STIKSTOF - whose work he has sampled and stretched into beautiful ambient pieces.

The second half of the show sees Hayley Suviste weave an assortment of standout tracks from Manchester's kinetic electronic music scene through a tapestry of sonic portraits documenting the city's ever-changing landscapes - from its near-wild edgelands to the heart of its inner-city development projects.


Each month, First Light Records invites two artists to take an unplanned journey with a microphone around their city to curate an hour-long mix. Each show captures the unique atmosphere of a city from each artist's perspective, through music and found sound.

Tyneside Sounds Society #16 - Chopwell, Communists & Dead Anglo Saxons

Out From Under #4 - Alex White

In this episode, we feature two artists pushing back against the tyranny of the machine in electronic music - capturing inputs and processing outputs in ways that rely less directly on spending face time with the laptop screen.

Alex White talks about Nadir, his noise collaboration with Ben Byrne, which rejects dark, power noise in favour of a light and bright counterpoint; and jazz musician Jacques Emery discusses the wide range of electronic output on his Sounds Are Sounds label, all of which favour art over craft, and – much like jazz - focus on a constant refinement of improvisational practice.


Hosted by Stu Buchanan, Out From Under dives deep beneath the surface of the Australian music scene, celebrating experimental and eclectic music from the far end of the world.

7pm GMT Weekly on Wednesday at 7pm

Littoral Transmissions #40 - Comets

In this episode: magnetic currents pulse across the marshes as mysterious comets sweep across the sky. Glimpsed briefly before vanishing once more, they leave only cloud traces and a vague sense that the field in which we are still standing is now imperceptibly yet radically altered.


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.
