In this episode, Dronica meets Danilo Casti.

Electroacoustic musician and composer, Danilo Casti was born in Cagliari (Sardinia island, Italy) and has been present in the Italian electronic music scene since the early 2000s, working in live performance, contemporary dance, video, and multimedia installation.

He performs either as a solo artist or as a member of collective projects. Since 2018, he has been part of Dalila Kayros's band as an electronic musician, composer and arranger.

He is also part of Alessandro Carboni's contemporary dance company as a composer and performer. He has collaborated with several artists and he performed at various festivals of electronic music, theatre, and contemporary dance around Europe, USA, and Asia. His music style includes synthetic and concrete sounds organised in different ways, from straightforward composition to an algorithmic generative approach.

His career has been strongly influenced by experimental theatre and contemporary dance, and his music is based around atmospheric composition and soundscapes. Collaborating with Dalila Kayros, he explores more rhythmic and harmonic textures, combining his experimental, electroacoustic attitude with a songwriting style.

ANIMAMI, the latest record by Dalila Kayros and Danilo Casti, has recently received the Mario Cervo Award for Best Album 2022.

Radio Študent for presents a jumble of sonic images of animals and humans interacting with them collected and mixed by robrrr_. Field recordings, clips from television and appropriations from social media form the basis of an exploration into the way we spend time with animals, play with them, parody them…

The sound samples are manipulated, arranged and interwoven with original musical compositions to create a warm and playful ramble around the various ways we represent animals and use images of them to expose things about ourselves and our lifeworlds.

In the clips, we sense the love and happiness that emanate from the interactions but, at the same time, the animals' presence is often reduced, indirectly heard or otherwise cryptic, leading us to the question if the subjectivity of the animals is given the space they really deserve.

Robbie Hopper is a musician, biologist, audio technician and sound artist, working under the name robrrr_. They find making abstract compositions a comforting way of making sense of worldly wonders and horrors, and are currently particularly interested in radio and noise as subversive conduits for rebellion against oppression of various kinds.

They invite you to greet your pet on their behalf.

In this episode, RE-PEAT collective approaches water justice through imagining the perspective of water nself, by drawing stories and definitions of bodies of water, and n’s entanglement in relation with other bodies, bogs, bugs, sundew, moss, reeds, drops, rivers, will-o’-the-wisp and us.

Through collectivity, music and sounds, we follow a feminist subjectivity, watered, inspired by Astrida Neimanis’s call to “chart our politics of location in a way that recognises our diverse aqueous implications and responsibilities”.

With contributions from Moss Pit, the River Besòs in Barcelona and the Salween River in Thailand by Helen Ganya Brown.

RE-PEAT is a youth-led collective with a mission to change the narrative around peatlands across the UK and Europe - what we term a “peatland paradigm shift”. We strongly believe that peatlands are ecosystems for our times – representing both a vast existential risk and a huge potential for positive transformation, the course of which we follow depending on the actions of those alive today. We also see that these ecosystems can offer insights into a wide array of eco-societal features, including deep time, what we collectively choose to remember/forget, and how we can think beyond binaries.

A six-part series by Meira Asher and Stephen Shiell exploring the interactions between transmission, sound, activism and water. Each episode is created by a different artist or group who engage with water politics and the politics of listening through the medium of radio.

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.

Here we focus is mainly on its lighter genres – electro-jazz, jazz-funk, jazz-mugham, jazz-choral, folk-jazz from the Baltic States, the Lesser Caucasus, Central Asia and Russia. To this music it is really pleasant to float through the spring city – so many melodies and much relaxation in it!

However, at the end of the show the mood changes somewhat and ends with bold experiments in the field of free jazz with a glance at the academic avant-garde – it is a rain cloud on the horizon, which takes your breath away with its elegance, impetuosity and pomposity. Happy long-awaited spring!

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.
