We continue to listen to rare records released on the Soviet major label Melodia. This time – and not for the last time – the episode is dedicated to jazz in all its manifestations.

We'll start with the first jazz composition in the history of the USSR (the Uzbek band under Pavel Chaplevsky made this recording in 1935), listen to balearic improvisations from Ukraine, electro-boogie from Kazakhstan, jazz-mughams from Azerbaijan and then dive headfirst into free jazz from the Baltic States and faraway places in Russia. Let jazz be free!

Uzbekistan-based DJ and boss of the experimental TOPOT label Eugenie Galochkin presents rare vinyl rips from the Soviet Melodia label. Melodia has released music from all around the world: from obscure Baltic electronica and free jazz from Siberia; to synth-pop from Tajikistan and academic avant-garde from Ukraine. The series will explore how national and cultural characteristics are embedded in musical language.

In this episode, sound artist Leonel Vásquez and researcher Lisa Blackmore navigate the Bogotá River in Colombia through a more-than-human song created together with the living forces that shape the watershed’s ecosystems.

Loaded with chemicals and sewage along its course, the river is largely devoid of the fish and freshwater crustaceans that for thousands of years teemed in its waters. People have turned their backs on the water body, even though it was once the centre of collective life.

How might listening to the river’s song renew bonds of relation and reverence for water in dis-enchanted times? Guided by Leonel’s compositions, River Song, Singing Rivers is sonic immersion that attends to the Bogota rivers bogs, meanders, and flows as a living being worthy and in need of care.

Lisa Blackmore is founder-director and curator of entre—ríos, exploring continuities between bodies of water, human bodies and territories, recognising rivers as active subjects. Lisa is Senior Lecturer in Art History and Interdisciplinary Studies at the University of Essex, United Kingdom. She holds a PhD in Latin American Cultural Studies and is the author of publications like Spectacular Modernity: Dictatorship, Space and Visuality in Venezuela 1948-1958 (2017), and co-editor of Hydrocommons Cultures: Art, Pedagogy and Care Practices in the Americas (LA ESCUELA__JOURNAL, 2024) and Liquid Ecologies in Latin American and Caribbean Art (2020).

Leonel Vásquez is a Colombian sound artist exploring non-human sonic agencies: waters, trees, rocks... living and vibrant materials. Their interests include underwater noise, geo-resonances, relational listening, and vibroacoustics of planetary well-being. They have worked with the National Radio of Colombia, Ministry of Culture, and as a teacher of sound art at the University of Los Andes.

entre—ríos explores continuities between bodies of water and human bodies, recognising rivers as active subjects producing aesthetic forms and shaping memory. They believe in artistic practices as catalysts for collaborative experiments connecting us to the environment. Their practice traces hydrographies rendering borders porous, creating shared territories. They put into circulation ways of knowing and feeling bodies of water through creative methodologies and flow systems that create deltas of knowledge where arts and sciences, communities and institutions meet. Their project, **RÍO BOGOTÁ&&, connects community initiatives in one of Colombia's polluted rivers through culinary encounters and publications.

Collective Werebere focuses on communication and expressions between the human and natural world, based on the study of different bodies and their sounds. They have conducted research on resonance phenomena and subtle landscape signals. They lead the High Mountain Listening Station project, a space for contemplation and well-being practices towards the body and Sumapaz páramo territory.

A six-part series by Meira Asher and Stephen Shiell exploring the interactions between transmission, sound, activism and water. Each episode is created by a different artist or group who engage with water politics and the politics of listening through the medium of radio.

Welcome to walkplacedistancetime.

Walking, movement in place, in air, distance through time.

In this episode: Iceland ... every three hours for 24 hours ... eight times ... daag einn I juni ... I stand and look east across the fell to the obelisk. Beyond it the northern shoulder of Burfell rises then slips away off its hog’s back summit.

Stand and listen to the plaintive pipe of the Golden Plover and the croak of the Snipe.

Stand … then move off ... down the slope; through the Marsh Marigolds; over the stream; cross two fences; cross the horse paddock to the leaning post; along the horse path; around to the fence to the left; over the fence; cross four streams; pass the waterfall; cross the marsh; cross the stream on stones; up the slope to gap in ridge; up the slope to the lip; around the obilisk; pause; retrace my steps ... eight walks ... eight sections ... split ... re-built ... into a day at random ... eight movements ... this is movement 8.

This is a montage created from the Radio as a Space and a Material community workshop with Diffusion FM 91.9 held at 107 Redfern. For this event we invited the community to contemplate alternative radio space.

We also invited the wonderful Hethre Contant to participate which inevitably included an appearance of The Weekly Dream Report. Also big thanks to Ryan Morris for sharing his other consciousness with us.

Here are the results of workshop participants enjoying performative experiments. During these “jams” the usual suspects were utilised – extremely low-powered terrestrial radio wave technologies, other electromagnetic and time-based sensing tools, telephones, walkie-talkies, computers, deep sea cables, whatever paraphernalia came to hand and August Black’s telematic browser app Mezcal.

Most of the material was recorded using a very old H1 ZOOM with only one functioning microphone and mobile phones. The results are delightfully LoFi and in glorious mono!

Members of Radia, the international group of independent cultural radio stations, explore new and forgotten ways of making radio.
