Now that we have four hours to broadcast it gives us an opportunity to concentrate on artists, projects, labels etc. This broadcast centres around the sound art of Adi Newton.
The programme features two exclusive pieces, extracts from the forthcoming release 'TAGC Complete Test Tones Experiments Meon 1 + 2'. It will be released as a book / USB Card. (marked *).
I did make an error during the broadcast, I forgot to shut off the studio mic' at one point. It makes the sound have a 'live' feel to it and you can he me muttering in the background. I apologise (I noticed it pretty quickly) and I hope it doesn't ruin the listening too much. Still getting used to the new studio and equipment....anyway...
The early Clock DVA recordings are (mostly) from the (excellent) 4 part "Horology" series curated by Frank at Vinyl On Demand. https://www.vod-records.com/HOME-1-64.htm. "Brigade" is from the 7"EP 'The First Fifteen Minutes" released in 1980 by Steve Singleton's Neutron Records label. "Coil" appears on 'Horology 2', so impressed with the sound that Geff Rushton / Jonh Balance named his project after the track. Geff went on to collaborate with Adi. Part One ends with the Coil track "Nasa-Arab".

Part two of the broadcast starts with a couple of pieces from Coagulant. Coagulant is the solo project of Fabio Kubic. Fabio has worked with Adi Newton, being a part of Psychophysicist and working on the "AMMA" album with The Anti Group. Fabio is from Bologna, not Portugal (my mistake!) and is based in North London. "Coiled" is from the cassette album 'Revok' released by Invisible City Records. "The Repenting Events" is from the 2020 self released album 'Rendlesham Transmitter'.
"Rendlesham Transmitter is a work connected with unknown states of consciousness and with the "Typhonian Experiments" inside the outer space. Anyone conversant with the work of Kenneth Grant cannot help but associate his name with the word 'extraterrestrial'. Kenneth Grant's "Typhonian Experiments" were focused on dimensional portal openings, and communications and transmissions with entities from another astral plane - permeated by an alien aura, modelled and hidden within layers and levels of consciousness, and by the ritual knowledge. The sound used in Rendlesham Transmitter is simultaneously in and out of the bizarre - from the surreal sensuality of Austin Osman Spare and Michael Bertiaux's visionary voodoo to the arcane appropriation of Lovecraftian Lore. ..... The Repenting Events are a catalytic bridge for psychic experiences, the remote past is projected against the cosmic tissue into an arcane backdrop of starry space, opening cognisance of outer gateways, contact points with areas of being and non-being increasingly indentified as non-human". (Fabio Kubic 27:02:2020).

Organ Of Corti is a trio of sound artists comprising of Joachim Nordwall (iDeal Recordings), Dan Johansson (White/Sewer Election/Neutral) and Matthias Gustafsson (Altar Of Flies/Cryme). I came across this project only last year with the excellent cassette "EA & Other Works" released on their own Edition Corti label. Since then I am trying to get hold of everything I can by them. "Colluvio" is the latest 7" on iDeal Recordings, limited to only 100 copies. "Potentia" is from the CD album 'Fanaticus' on the New Forces label.

The Anti Group will be performing live at this years Wave-Gothik Treffen festival in Leipzig and Clock DVA are planning live European dates for later in the year. Hopefully I will be able to get to one or two of those ... Big thanks to Adi for the exclusive sounds and for all the sounds throughout the years, as I mentioned in the broadcast I have been listening to his work since 1979 .. that's 45 years! Also to Fabio and Simon for assistance in making this programme. The next broadcast is at the end of May, exact date and detail to follow.
The picture above is of Adi, Jane, Myself and Karl D'Silva outside The Conway Hall, London 2009. The Anti Group, Dieter Müh, Æthnor and The Threshold HouseBoys Choir were playing live. Great memories .....
