Running weekly, the series will broadcast the entire catalogue so far in chronological order, continuing here with NO L by John Smith.

The artist-filmmaker closes his sell-out Introspective (1 October—1 December 2022) with the release of a limited cassette edition of the soundtracks from his 16mm film ‘7P’ and his digital video ‘Regression’, featuring interpretations of The Twelve Days of Christmas recorded twenty years apart.

Includes unlimited streaming of 'NO L' via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.


purge.xxx releases music. 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.

Mitamine Lab #60 - Futura

This episode explores the profound human inclination to envision narratives, utopias, and potential realities. It draws parallels to Filippo Tommaso Marinetti's The Founding and Manifesto of Futurism (1909), which championed the idea of relinquishing the past in favour of future possibilities, as well as the insights of Nick Montfort, poet, digital media artist, and creative computing specialist, who posits that the future ought to be constructed rather than merely anticipated.

Accordingly, this musical composition seeks to craft a narrative that aligns with the concepts Montfort presents in The Future (The MIT Press Essential Knowledge), offering a poetic understanding of the future from an artistic (sound) lens.


Mitamine Lab is a culture laboratory based in Mexico City which blends sound archives with contemporary music and literature.

Radia #1013 - Where Is My Horse by Soundart Radio

Let’s bring some new questions to our radio making

Where do we live? Where is my horse? Where comes the air from? How to build healthy relationships? Wie viele Leute kennst du hier? Is there a silent place here? Warum? Warum gerade jetzt? Why am I here? Welche Eissorte? Warum? When is it 17 o‘ clock? Where is my horse? What do I hear? Where do you live? What sound do you like to hear when falling asleep?

Perhaps we won’t find all the answers this time, but there is always next year, by the lake.

Produced in the ‘long form sound installation’ workshop at Radiocamp, Bodensee, Mai 2024 by Insa Trölenberg, Lukas Zittlan, Lukas Lammer, Alexander Schab, Laszlo Ivanovic, Normann Schuh, Anna Claus, Gerald Wang, Kika Demange, Lisa Humsickes, Roman Kalex, Mo Borghorst, Celik Armet, Susann Tonne, Saskia Ackermann, with Lucinda Guy and Alice Armstrong.
