Gravity Waves and The Spirit World #16 - reqiemc40

Tuesday 5th December 2017 22:00 - 00:00 GMT

This month: rebroadcast of Carl Slater's requiemc40, sound collage originally broadcast in September 2017 as part of Keith Harrison's JOYRIDE project, in which the visual artist launched a Rover 75 replica of a car down a 10-metre wooden ramp to its destruction. The artwork broadcast this evening was first broadcast on Joyride FM, a temporary radio station set-up in the forest to soundtrack the launch, and features fragmented documentary archive material, white noise, cartoon physics and terminal flatlines presenting a social-historical framework of automotive manufacturing, alternative readings of joyriding, dogging and car culture.

JOYRIDE was commissioned for Jerwood Open Forest, supported by Jerwood Charitable Foundation, Forestry Commission England and Arts Council England.

Thursday 23rd February 2017 20:00 - 22:00 GMT

The first hour will be dedicated to the various sonic work made by the enigma that is Mr Chriddof. For years he has been making surreal and fantastic youtube videos that blend infantile toilet humour, deep knowledge of historical avant-garde film, DIY software processing accidents and extensive use of 80's and 90's British television broadcast archives. Here we present mix of video soundtracks and purely musical Chriddof endeavours. It all adds up to a truly strange and captivating body of work. Mr Chriddof we salute you!

Sunday 21st February 2016 12:00 - 12:00 GMT

Celebrating 15 years of the Spirit of Gravity Collective with a marathon 24 hour takeover radio broadcast on Resonance Extra, on DAB in Brighton and surrounding areas and on the web – the show begins at midday on Sunday 21st February and finishes at midday the following day:
https://extra.resonance.fm

The Spirit of Gravity have been at the heart of Brighton’s experimental music scene for the last 15 years. Established by maverick art duo Maphead and rapidly growing into a collective of around 12 artists/bands, they have been quietly and continuously programming and presenting the best weirdo music they can make and find. Recently validated with a request to submit to the British Library Sound Archive, the Collective felt this is a good time to broadcast a whole load of live gigs and ephemera collected over 15 years of live gigs, festivals, collaborations and label releases. Now: witness recordings that range from shambling amateurish live events to shambling amateurish live events, but also include absolute gems from the likes of Dan Powell, Malevich, Hot Roddy, minimal impact, Multiplex, DJ Cheesemaster, Terror Wogan, DJ Shitmat, DJ Scotch Egg, Metronomy, Halal Kebab Hut, I’m Dr Buoyant and many, many, many, many, many, more….
