Asphyxia: The "Idiote", the Library Wifi and the Suppressed Safe #2 - Potato ▾
This second episode begins with a short reconstruction of a conversation with former bookshop manager "Cynthia", who gives the programme-maker a list detailing the British Library's Suppressed Safe contents - a list which exceeds anything currently in the public domain.
"Cynthia" deemed it such a hot potato that she requested a voice actor completely re-record her voice. After receiving the list, oddly synchronicitous disturbances (of varying significance) materialise.
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.

Atmospheric Densities #17 ▾
In this episode we delve into two upcoming releases: Bells: the gauzy glockenspiel experiments from Broken Chip, AKA Martyn Palmer, who is based in the Blue Mountains in Australia, and Homework, an intriguing collaboration between Londoner Matt Atkins and Italian composer MonoLogue (Marie Rose).
Martyn opens the show and talks us through his process in making Bells. We also hear from Matt Atkins who discusses the alchemical and improvisatory processes which went into his collaboration with Marie Rose.
We dip into Nichola Scrutton's new release Night Vision which is based on a practice of semi-conscious writing, enjoy Manja Ristic's special sniffing rock in Croatia and join Colombian composer David Veléz as he does the dishes.
The second half of the show is a beautiful mix by Martyn Palmer of music which inspired his forthcoming album Bells.
This is the Flaming Pines radio show featuring new releases, mixes and experiments in field recording, sound art and experimental music, hosted by Kate Carr and guests.

Dronica #72 - Dronica Meets Dalila Kayros ▾
In this episode, Dronica meets Dalila Kayros for a guest mix.
Sardinian singer and composer Dalila Kayros creates avant-garde indie electronic songs with dark ambient elements. Her music evolves through concept albums, which see Kayros creating surreal images relating to symbolism and a dystopian aesthetic, blending lead with ritualistic vocals and combining quiet and fierce moods.
"We'll walk on different terrains, from an etheric sound to a scream from the guts! So from a quiet sideral night to a screaming foggy day where the sun hits as strong as ever!" – Dalila Kayros.
Nicola Serra, founder of East London's experimental music festival Dronica, presents new and archival material.

First Light's Third Space #15 - Jana Irmert & Mabe Fratti ▾
This episode features music and field recordings capturing the sounds of Berlin and Mexico City, courtesy of Jana Irmert and Mabe Fratti.
In the first hour, Jana probes the intrigue of Berlin's streets and experimental music scene. Using cutting edge recording technologies, she offers us an unconventional angle on the city's soundscape, from the electronic signals surging through power boxes and neon signs to the subtle movements under the ice covering the Spree River.
In the second hour, Guatemalan cellist and composer Mabe Fratti takes us across Mexico City. Her mix features a selection of tracks from artists living and working in the city, combined with recordings of the everyday music that floods its streets: parents and children singing together, musicians improvising in bars and on street corners, and taxi drivers cranking up the radio to share their favourite songs.
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.
