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.

The title reflects the number of days Niya had to wait for her first appointment at the Gender Identity Clinic. The wait times have been increasing across the UK, with first appointments now taking anywhere from three to five years. The project consists of three parts, each capturing one-third of the 912-day journey, using a 360 degree camera.

Niya engaged with diverse communities of trans and non- binary people in Birmingham and London through workshops and participatory performances. 912 goes beyond a personal story to resonate with a wider audience, exploring conditions of waiting, frustration, hope, resilience and community support.

The podcast was initially designed as an audio description for visually impaired individuals but has since evolved into a distinct audio experience of its own.

Text by Afrah Allsopp & Niya B. Narration by Asher Fynn. Mixed by Lottie Lou Poulet.

This hundredth edition is a very special memorial episode. The great and unique D, Dave Watts, D. WattsRiot, KingL Man as well as part of Fun-Da-Mental and a gazillion other collaborations, left us last month and with him a huge void that will never be filled.

DJ, producer, friend, collaborator and eternal connector, many can count themselves lucky to have crossed his path, eternally grateful for all the chats, politic rambles, jams, chicken meals and bichillo grills and most of all his endless energy!

This show is dedicated to his everlasting impression on me as well as everyone who met him. My way of saying goodbye with an hour mix of tracks he produced, featured in, played in his DJ sets or simply tunes we both liked and talked about. Ride high my brother, ride high on a windy day!

Cosmic, transcendent sounds and exploratory electronics with f.ampism.

This sixteenth chunk of Asphyxia broadly explores audio cassette tapes as a means of transmitting ideas. It contains a manifesto on 'pure volunteering', i.e. an act whereby involuntarily unemployed aspirants forcibly employ themselves by gatecrashing workplaces.

A lost micro-cassette phone recording (yielded during a bin dive) of wildlife expert Chris Packham discussing wood mice with a tabloid reporter is digitised and archived in a guerrilla pure volunteering trespass at an unnamed recording facility. The illegality of pure volunteering lends it an inadvertent thrill, portrayed here in breathless commentary and nibbled process.

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.

Enriched by various discoveries from online sources and current or forthcoming promotional materials, this musical composition reflects on the poignant reunion with my dear friend, who passed away a few months ago.

During his memorial service, I encountered the concept of the 'Rainbow Bridge,' a mythical realm where pets transition after their departure, experiencing rejuvenation and vitality as they await the return of their human companions.

This episode evokes the notion of that idealised – perhaps imminent or far-off – reunion. It is dedicated to the cherished memory of Momo, my cat.

Our senses, you say, are fallacious. Our understanding is erroneous. Our ideas even of the most familiar objects, extension, duration, motion, are full of absurdities and contradictions. You defy me to reconcile the inconsistencies which you find in them. I haven't the skill for so great an undertaking

I see that there is no need for it. This dialogue concern your religion. But U never really listen until you have to why is that?

Girls B-Side Orchestra is back. And for the first of their series on Resonance Extra, a ghost is eluding their senses.
