First Light's Third Space #5 - Adam Sherry & Lee Tesche

This month, First Light's Third Space is visited by artists Adam Sherry (London) and Lee Tesche (New Smyrna Beach, Florida).

In Adam's own words, the first half of the show was "recorded over December 2021 as a difficult year drew to a close, the one ahead now coming into view offering hope. This mix features songs by some of my good friends and favourite London based artists, the sonic threads of a community, intertwined with numerous sound walks, flickering moments of inspiration + a few unreleased dead forest fragments share an insight into a bright but transient moment in time."

Best known for his work with the band Algiers, Lee's mix for Third Space encompasses sounds from the coastal area around Cape Canaveral and central Florida. A collection of several years of field recordings, local short wave and marina radio stations, Atlantic Center for the Arts residency work, found ¼” tape reels from the county courthouse, NASA audio archives, local music tapes, and his own collaborative projects during this period, give shape to a fascinating area that his family has inhabited for over half a century.


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.

AA+ DRONE OPERATØR RADIØ #4

Drone Operatør's AA + session #4 takes the listener on a 2-hour journey through rough terrain. The walk starts at ground level where we pass by lively waters and layered sound strata with detailed landscapes that fade into each other.

Once in a while, familiar sightings re-emerge out from the ground and we go up and down until we finally meet up with NATHAN CORDER who takes over after this 1-hour walk. He guides us up that steep 30min climb into his very own territory filled with wild sharp rocks and beasts baring teeth that leaves you breathless and drenched in sweat.

A 30 min downhill hike after we waved goodbye to our guest and this ride is over. We hope you picked some flowers along the way.
