In this episode, Stephen McEvoy of Malmö's FLUF label discusses self-restraint, tinnitus and time in reverse. Also: a playlist of grubby guitars.

Thematic mixes and reflections, captured along the Dorset coastline by ATTN:Magazine's Jack Chuter.

Presented by Theresa Elflein and Martin Clarke, this month we speak to Kodian Trio and duo Marco Scarasssatti and Abdul Moimême about their recent / upcoming releases on OEM Records. Venturing outside, we explore the necessity of solitude and profundity of nature through Katie O’Neill‘s meditative sound-poem ‘Message Green’. The latter half of the show is an eclectic mix dedicated to European and South African sounds; avant-pop, found sounds and jazz, alongside other enticements from across the musical spectrum.

Colliding Lines present live sessions, cross-genre collaborations and left-field recordings drawn from the London, UK and international experimental scenes; a long-form love letter to recorded audio as soundtrack, as sound art and as storyteller.

A fever takes hold over this episode, but the willpower to continue researching persists. When these two things collide, you can be sure that you're in for one hell of a rollercoaster of ride full of spills and thrills without a moderating pragmatist for miles.

Fever effects are unusual; perceptual loops present themselves, of varying tiresomeness. A loud music event outdoors prompts our poorly breathless narrator to trace the source of the sound.

This gives rise to what may become a recurring theme in Asphyxia: namely, a new genre of music called 'creepbeat'; where, like breakbeat, music is sampled, albeit from an unreasonably long lonely distance away. When banging tunes lose their definition, they thrum.

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.

On the long term effects of hiding. One of hour bee music by Ben Drew with additional vocals samples by Vito Acconci, Isla Cameron, Arianne Churchman and some people of YouTube.

Communiques from Thanet Tape Centre, Hard drive sludge. audio tidal pools. Music sediment. Friends utterances, sea walls of noise, salt marsh drone.

This episode explores sounds from various fields of music from the city, with an addition of field recordings from within the Athenian infra structure (Arriving to Athens via car, via plane, via bus plus city ambiance etc...).

Athens Inner City Broadcast aims to create a lucid state between being alert and dreaming, based on the notion of a Site specific transmission.

Andy Backhouse presents a two hour show of new and unusual music and sounds - playing everything from Free Jazz to Field Recordings. This is an open-format show with a difference.

For this seventh and final episode, he presents the second part of 'You Are Here With Me'.

This is a collection of recordings made by Davide between 2005 and 2018. The recordings include interactions with acoustic spaces, actions performed with microphone(s), musical rehearsals, and reinterpretations of other people's songs. The shared aspects of the recordings are human presence, non-professional voices, and musicking.

Davide Tidoni is an artist and researcher interested in the relational dimension of listening, and in the physical experience of sound. He works with live performance, intervention, audio recording, video, and guided listening. He recently published a sound ethnography on the ultras group BRESCIA 1911. 'Collected Recordings' is a series of works selected by Tidoni from his extensive back catalogue.

The Resonance Radio Orchestra is a floating pool of musicians, engineers, sound-effects creators, actors, writers, composers and broadcasters devoted to making live radio-art. It is based in central London as the in-house artistic wing of Resonance104.4fm, under the direction of Ed Baxter.

This episode of Third Space sees two First Light Records artists, Louis Giannamore (Barkum Deer/Kinn) and Sean Kinnear, explore themes of space, memory, and nostalgia over the course of two deeply personal mixes. In the first hour, Louis revisits his childhood holidays in the Basque Country of Southern France, trips that are soundtracked in his memory by the heavy metal music that defined his musical youth and the rich coastal soundscapes of the region.

He reinvokes the feeling of these formative moments in a curated mix of his field recordings from the Basque, interwoven with often-overlooked ambient and balladic gems from artists that are ordinarily associated with crushing drums and chugging riffs. In the second hour, Sean narrates a history of his native Salford through music and found sound, as well as exclusive unreleased sonic experiments of his own. From the sounds of textile production to the dancefloor of the White Hotel, from New Order to Machine Woman, Sean’s mix charts a nostalgia-tinged path through Salford’s story and his own.

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.

William Fields explores the potential of algorithmic music through the process of recreating (and inventing?) genres with his musical operating system.

In this episode, Dronica meets the experimental duo Vādin, who have created a mix which journeys into obscure experimental, techno, tribal and drone.

Vādin is a shapeshifter formed through sound, a seismic energy made up of sound artists Christian Duka and Lucie Štěpánková.

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

Method, by Anna Zett via reboot.fm 88.4 FM Berlin for radia.
