Running weekly, the series will broadcast the entire catalogue so far in chronological order, continuing here with Polari Bible: Genesis (part una) read by Stanley Schtinter.

Recorded live in a single-sitting at the Church of the Blessed Sacrament in Manhattan’s Upper West Side, New York City: chapters 1—20 (or ‘part una’) of Genesis from the King James Bible translated into Polari by the Manchester house of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Spoken by Stanley Schtinter under the cosh of The Colloquium for Unpopular Culture (chapters 1—23 recorded but edited down (1—20) to meet maximum duration available in a single cassette format, 96 minutes total).

The second part premieres in full on Resonance FM on Christmas Day in 2024.

This series for Resonance Extra is the first time much of the label's catalogue has been available to hear outside of its material form. It accepts the invitation by Resonance on the basis that none of these sounds are stored. If you want to hear it you need to be able to access the radio at midnight every Thursday.

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.

In this episode: Out of Time by Matthew Sansom.

"A soundscape composition curating memories of an extended family holiday in 2009 to Tashkent and nearby Qibray. It was an unhurried and valuable time of re-connecting with family and cultural roots. With the benefit of time the moments and memories evoked by these recordings seem somehow ‘out of time’. On the one hand they are fixed, unique and of the past, on the other they are universal, floating and reach both into the moment and bifurcate out towards future possibilities. This conjunction of specificity with universality, the many and the one, and its aesthetic repercussions are central to my artistic and written works."

Matthew Sansom is an artist working across a variety of media and contexts including sound, video, sculpture, installation, performance and musical composition. His work has been exhibited and performed internationally, including the National Theatre of Prague, Victoria & Albert Museum, ICA (London), CCA (Glasgow), t-u-b-e galerie (Munich), Korean Institute of Culture, Ely Cathedral. Commissions have included sound-based works for Liverpool City Council, Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival and the Four Seasons Hotel, Shanghai. He holds a doctorate in musicology/music psychology on the topic of free improvisation. After teaching at the Universities of Newcastle and Surrey, UK, he is now Professor of Music and Associate Dean, School of Arts, at Sunway University, KL, Malaysia.

Stéphane Marin presents a weekly series of short soundscapes recorded in the mornings at various locations throughout Central Asia.

Asphyxia was originally broadcast as a 22-hour single transmission by Radio Art Zone, and, as can be expected, this final hour is an implosion under the gravity.

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.
