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.

In this first episode, enduring the Metal Gear Solid alert sound effect in a real-world setting, the quasi-unemployed narrator introduces his controversial "work where you like" practice; being an archivist without portfolio, researching "media of unknown origin", and clawing at the British Library's "Suppressed Safe" of restricted-access books.

Abused necks - seats of human voice - are given special attention in this episode - anatomical points of interest in the unusual (and largely unknown) literary work of Marcus S. Chambers (aka "Exact Thinker") and his anarchist counterpart Sydney Hanson. The present-day obscurity of their work forms a self-fulfilling prophecy about the silencing of knowledge, lending much unease, mystery, and squirms to outmanoeuvre "crank" vibes.

Originally commissioned in 2022 as part of Radio Art Zone's tapestry of 22-hour radio productions, this project by Daniel R. Wilson is re-presented here in episodic form. Asphyxia hacks the antagonising systems which thwart and forestall projects (its name also acknowledges the asphyxiating atmosphere of long-form radio when made by a single person). It is a damaged would-be radio documentary exploring the Narnia of restricted access material and gatekept employment.

In this episode, Dronica meets Ellen Southern for our monthly guest mix.

Singer and interdisciplinary artist, Ellen Southern, has woven together a special selection of audio spanning years of her practice, including unreleased live material from the dark-neoclassical group Dead Space Chamber Music, new collaborations and an exclusive long-form premiere, and raw vocal field recordings from her experimental solo work. The result is an intrepid journey through an audio-landscape of varying textures, dynamics and atmospheres.

Ellen Southern is a singer and visual artist from the UK, working with voice, sound and site. Southern is the vocalist in the dark neoclassical quartet Dead Space Chamber Music, also contributing visual art and experimental percussion / found sound. They released their second album, The Black Hours, in December 2021, co-releasing the vinyl with experimental independent label Avon Terror Corps in April 2022.

Southern also co-curates the independent Dark Alchemy event series, often held in unique spaces including crypts and churches, immersing audiences in the acoustics, aesthetic and atmosphere of each unique sacred space.

She has contributed to a variety of acclaimed collaborative projects, including a tour and release with Bristol noise/drone artist BURL (“a meditative séance for increasingly dark times” - Crack Magazine), appearances as part of The SeeR immersive performance collective (Dronica Festival, London, The Woodland Gathering, Cumbria, and Supersonic Festival, Birmingham), and as soloist for the acclaimed ceremonial electronic / AV work Kistvaen by Roly Porter and MFO (Mira Festival, Barcelona, and Les Garages Numériques Festival, Brussels).

Nicola Serra, founder of East London's experimental music festival Dronica, presents new and archival material.

Discrepancies is a global showcase of disparate music with a focus on earthly field recordings and international sounds, curated by the Discrepant record label, presented by Gonçalo F Cardoso.
