First Light's Third Space #7 - Ekin Fil & Yuting Wu ▾
This episode of Third Space was created by Ekin Fil (Istanbul) and Yuting Wu (Beijing).
The first half of the show captures the sounds and music of a daytime in and around Istanbul. Including the areas Kadıköy, Acıbadem, Yenikapı, Eminönü, Sirkeci, Kabataş and Beyoğlu, as well as Darıca where Fil’s family lives on the border of the city.
In the second half of Third Space, Yuting Wu takes us around Beijing from the perspective of an outsider in the city. The first part of the mix emphasises the typical impressions of Beijing: the public transportation, the crowds, the opera, along with a street musician playing saxophone in the park. Beneath these surface impressions, Wu explores the disappointment that accompanies living in such a city as an outsider where dreams and ambitions often go unfulfilled.
Artwork is by Max Howarth.
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 #15 - Tim Shaw - 'River Tyne' ▾
Tim Shaw is a sound artist based in North East of England - he gave me access to field recordings he's made in and around River Tyne in the North East of England over the last 12 months - I've mixed an hours worth of material that offers a slow meditation on this once busy and heavily industrialised river.
It presents a dense portrait of marginalised and liminal spaces along, in and on the river. On board dredgers, underneath bridges and down manholes Tim used hydrophones, contact mics, electromagnetic pick ups and more traditional sound recording. Much of this material was used in collaboration with film maker Leah E Millar for her 16mm film Un.s.scene.
The Tyneside Sounds Society is a monthly broadcast dedicated to the recording and reinterpretation of the sonic environment and sound heritage of Tyneside in the North East of England.

AA+ DRONE OPERATØR RADIØ #10 ▾
Nøthing more to say…
In contrast, we present some Cornelius Cardew (†1981) pieces written between 1960 and 1970.
Cardew’s music of the 1960s brought together ideas from both the European and American avant garde at the time, influencing everyone from Alvin Curran, Morton Feldman and Robert Wyatt to latter-day luminaries like US musicians Jim O’Rourke and Sonic Youth.
An upcoming online performance by the Aonghus McEvoy Ensemble is a rare opportunity for UK audiences to hear the music of this most revolutionary of composers. Irish composer Aonghus McEvoy convenes a group including musicians David Lacey, Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh, Rob Casey and renowned UK improviser/ musician Rhodri Davies to perform selections from his experimental period (1960-1970).
Online performance: October 9th & 16th, 7pm at Lutherhaus & St. Finian's Church, Dublin ///
