Members of Radia, the international group of independent cultural radio stations, explore new and forgotten ways of making radio.

Joe and Chanelle’s audio recordings encompass ambient sounds, conversation, experimental composition and improvised instrumental response. Cassette drones, loop pedals, voice and guitar are used to echo, mimic or bend over bird calls, thunderstorms, night sounds, indistinguishable chatter, museum reverberations and urban movement. These moments captured to tape are presented in two halves as an A-side/B-side format.

Enriched by visual counterpoints for each episode, Bruna’s critical eye forms an ambiguous tonal narrative from Jake's method of stumbling into excellence. Mountain, valley, glacier, and urban horizon are presented in stereo format, to parallel the A-side/B-side format.

This program has been made on the stolen lands of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, we pay respect to the Elders both past and present.

Field Notes

Side A - Urgently

Field recording of European museum with morning birds and amplifier feedback from guitar; complaints from Mum about washing clothes in the copper; undulating chords with vocal and crickets from Bundanon; pitch alteration on octave pedal; drone and feedback over museum sounds and harmonics in E major followed by a riff in E minor, ‘Heart Starts Beating Too Fast’.

Free Love: “A language that demands, urgently and violently: care. A generative exchange and agency in labour. A criticality through care, using play. A position that can be both active in participation and maintain the potential to deactivate, become divested. Doing something nice, flying a kite, or having a picnic. Just looking to be invited to converse, an extension of love to collapse two worlds; work and life.

Catered for by massive failure as a means of opening. Doing over making to relocate the work to the action. Relocating the site of art to the body and the use of time. A revolutionary release of time through play as resistance. Constructed relationships, situations, with an emphasis to act freely; to resist the positions of interest. A domain of emancipation and kinship for a subjective body." - Joe

Side B - Violently

Field recording of a visit to Palais Tokyo followed by a drone melody malady in G major with lead guitar; feedback with studio improvements such as making a shelf using a timber router, with museum crowd both clean and distorted; continuing drone sounds; crowds under compressed guitar handling and amp noise followed by chords with feedback; storm outside the studio and gallery opening night crowds.

A Lover’s Cheekbone: “A play that happens to be naturally abrasive to the system. It scratches against the sides on its way past. Maybe doing a bit of damage in the process of making contact. Not adversarial. It just doesn’t stay in its lane or conform to the right shape. Joyful and harsh. Always making a play for a kind of loving 'fuck you', full of intimacy and without concern for any consequence but enjoyment, kinship, friendship, comradery, the gang, the good life, the game.

A hypothetical but actually used playing field not made of spite or hate or jealousy. There are no sour grapes growing here. Just the things we do that happen to be antithetical to the status quo: hard work. The lazy artist. The drinking artist. The joker. The lark. All resistant. Revolutionaries even, if given enough purpose, and against the machine simply for not being welcome in its workings.

Not in protest, just not still enough to remain squarely in an assigned place. That place, comfortable to others, that is easily read. Forever willing to deploy a playful elbow to a ‘lover’s’ cheekbone to guard that sensitive spot, to avoid the grabbing of an unsuspecting nerve, a flinch in defense of submission, sometimes leaving a bruise, a wound, but necessary just the same. 'I will not show my belly if you will not show yours'. Not even for the promise of a kiss.” – Chanelle

Sounds (guitar, vocals, samples and pedals) by Joe and Chanelle. Oral storytelling by Jenny Magrath. Router sounds by Oliver Wagner

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.

Low Noise is an eight part study on a quieter side to noise - as a music or simply as its own aesthetic.

In this episode: magnetic currents pulse across the marshes as mysterious comets sweep across the sky. Glimpsed briefly before vanishing once more, they leave only cloud traces and a vague sense that the field in which we are still standing is now imperceptibly yet radically altered.

Littoral Transmissions meander through the sonic landscape of the River Lea from Stonebridge Lock to Leamouth. Recordings from the field converge with layers of sound to create an aural impression of the navigation.

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.
