Lepke B is hard to find. Lepke B is an idea derived from science-fiction. Lepke B is the missing dimension in the world of matter and anti-matter. His brain is a neuronic network spread out over melodies and words that have been transmitted since the beginning of times.

This third episode features four artists who took part in a research residency at GMEA (Albi, France) as part of the Tekhnē, initiated in 2023:

• Gauthier Deplaude in an informal discussion with Benjamin Maumus about his project Horloges etc.. This work uses two quartz clocks and their electrical environment as the sole sound sources, within a unique technical setup created by the artist, without effects or attempts at control.

• Rodolphe Bourotte tested his latest music production software, COMMA, during his residency. He engages in an informal discussion about his program and insights from his residency week.

• Yann Leguay shares an anecdote about one of his early projects, Dead Media, which centered on reversing the recording process in a vinyl pressing factory in France that has since closed. He reflects on the notions of trace, media, and collective memory.

• Abigail Toll presents Where Words Fail: World Building With Data, Sound, and Co-creation, a sound and interdisciplinary visual study that explores algorithmic herd behaviour in nature and its connections to surveillance practices.

Bi-monthly insights into the activities of the European project tekhnē, which started in 2023. The series showcases a selection of artists who share and discuss their work and listen to recorded material. By putting the focus on the user rather than the developer, this project aims to explore the emancipatory potential of technology in music and sound art. Technology as an art of craft, appropriating and transforming existing tools, to imagine multiple ways of creative misuse. tekhnē is a collaborative project, co-funded by the European Union.

In this episode: how do artists process recorded and generated sounds? What kind of new meaning emerges from this process? Apparently, it often results in laid-back music.

This episode is dedicated to the folk music of the indigenous peoples of Russia. On the territory of the Russian Federation, according to the latest data, there are 193 peoples who speak 277 languages and dialects. In its time, the Soviet major label Melodiya did a huge amount of work trying to record the traditional music of many regions, travelling thousands of kilometres on ethnographic expeditions.

Many records released in the wake of those trips are now rare artefacts. I can say the same about digitised copies - there are not many music files on the web, which somewhat limits the breadth of modern research.

Even so, an hour-long episode cannot contain even a tenth of the folklore music that was released on Melodiya. I worked with broad strokes, showing the music of only 20 indigenous peoples of the country – including the Pooziorets of Vitebsk. We hear traditional tunes from the westernmost region - Karelia. Then, we listen to the cheerful sunny melodies of the peoples of the Volga region, the free music of Kalmykia and the North Caucasus, and delve into the cold shamanic rhythms of the Far North.

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.

Ambient, folk, ritual, electronic, dub, free jazz and exploratory works selected by BroodingSideOfMadness.

This episode features location-centred mixes from Berlin-based sound artist Marta Forsberg and Poznań-based composer and sound engineer Aleksandra Słyż.

The show focuses on music from each city, but also nods to the interconnectedness of different music scenes and identities.
