From the most abrasive to the unbelievably sublime, Hope Valley Cement Works attempts to curate a selection of experimental music and sounds, from collected field recordings and sound collages, to serene ambience, impressive drone and the odd deconstructed club track. A series by Kris Cooper.

This found-sound-symphony uses mathematical proportions to build a musical framework inside which musical and radiophonic elements are seamlessly weaved together. For more information, visit Stace Constantinou's Bandcamp.

Stace's Constantinou's electroacoustic radiophonic work Trainofthoughts explores the claustrophobia experienced when commuting to work inside a small underground carriage.

The FUNKT programme was developed under the project management of Georg Dietzler by Anke Eckardt, Claudia Robles-Angel, Dietmar Bonnen, Dirk Specht and Felix Knoblauch, in cooperation with Sarah Washington and Knut Aufermann.

Thanks to sponsors Musikfonds e. V. with project funds from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media as part of the special programme Neustart Kultur, Kunststiftung NRW (North Rhine-Westphalia Endowment for the Arts), the Cultural Office of the City of Cologne.

This episode features a piece from every Flaming Pines release in 2022, presented in the order they came out. 2022 was a wonderful year of music, a big thanks to everyone who released with the label and supported us.

This sixth chunk of the long-duration series opens with an experiment in combining meditation with ranting. Meanwhile, an unexplained electrical fire at the British Library scuppers research into its Suppressed Safe collection.

To while away the downtime, extra shifts are taken on at the nearby antiquarian bookshop, where a friendly conspiracy theorist quizzes staff on cover-ups, before being told by the manager: "I'm going to have to stop you there. It's fascinating, but we've got to get on with things. Another time, maybe", to the disappointment of Asphyxia's creator, to whom conspiracy theories are like nectar to a hummingbird.

A hum remains in the left audio channel.

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.

This episode features tracks from Yves De Mey, Hyacinth & Aidan Baker, Isobel McKenna, EVOL, Southfacing, Dylan Henner, Hoavi, Inturist, Virusmoto, Glues Browling, and more.

An immersive psychosonic space, where sounds converse, collide and converge, featuring works, selections, edits, experiments, new music, non-music, archival objects, abstract artefacts, sound(system) and A/V art, pop, trash, noise, voice, and the associated mediums, processes and techniques that make up the ongoing audial investigations of Agents of the Culture Industry & OVT, all presented for art not profit.

It has been celebrated by The Wire magazine for its ‘disregard for the music industry, self-promotion and prevailing cultural norms,’ and an ‘ability to elevate distinct works and the obscure artists behind them.’ purge.xxx only releases music physically, unless a digital alternative has specifically been requested by a collaborating artist. It considers even the recording a compromise, but advocates things.
