Summer Clearings
[Repeated from Tuesday 8am.] A holiday selection from our Clear Spot archives. Every week day since 1 May 2002 we've broadcast a new and unique one hour show, typically a one-off which brings new programme makers and new content to Resonance. Summer Clearings is a selection of these, old and new. Today: Superbard (11 October 2013); Beatrice Dillon and Andrea Zarza (17 November 2014); The Suburban Pirates (24 October 2014); Grassroots Takeover (24 September 2013); Armchair Roadtrip (15 March 2017); and There Then Hear Now - Sanctum Ephemeral (6 June 2017).
8:00am - 12:00pm
From the Archives
Celebrating fifteen years on air - a selection of gems, surprises and just plain interesting broadcasts from the Resonance vaults. Today: sets from the May 2002 Turntable Hell tour: Exeter, set 1; Hull, set 2; reading, sets 1 and 2; Brighton, Set 1. [Repeated Tuesday 2pm.]
12:00pm - 4:00pm
Savvy Funk Selections
Selections from this year's documenta 14 radio project, SAVVY Funk. Featuring episodes of 'Me & My Rhythm Box' by Felix Kubin, in which guests from the fields of music, art science, and instrument-making are invited to explain (live) their relationships to their own instrument through sample sounds, brief concerts, and conversations; 'Render Live' by Mobile Radio which delves deep into a collection of artefacts and memories, rendering them into radiophonic form; and 'different time, different place, different pitch' by Dani Gal and Achim Lengerer, focused on political and historical events shaped by acoustic features or sound documents that have a significant political meaning. Today: SAVVY Contemporary Survey; Me & My Rhythm Box - H Hauff + RVDS; Five Broken Microphones; DISEMBtec_SonicCyberFMC; Decolonised weather; Walter Marchetti's Music for a too Small Glass. [Repeated Wednesday 4am.]
4:00pm - 5:00pm
Devil's Dancers
A surprise item offering respite from all that radio art. The latest episode of this series (the fifth, delayed from last month due to technical problems) in which curator of Nous Talks Nina Kehagia investigates the contribution and importance of various eras of synthesizer music in different locations around the world. Guest Veronica Vasicka (Minimal Wave/Citirax) asks if music 'retromania' is a modern phenomenon? How can we find our way throughout the vast amounts of cultural data and collective memory surfing? [Repeated Tuesday 6am.]
5:00pm - 6:00pm
Tongue And Groove
Another surprise! The Near Jazz Experience (Mark Bedford, Simon Charterton, Terry Edwards) and their guests talk about the purposes and pitfalls of being a musician. This is a special edition, featuring live music, where they talk about improvisation. With the help of Geoff Leigh (Henry Cow, Red Balloon), who has seen the arc of free music from the 60s onwards; and Phill Jupitus, who discusses how the paths of comedy improvisation and music cross. They may not arrive at a conclusion but the ride through their darkly humourous and occasionally satisfying professional life is always good. [Repeated Tuesday 7am.]
6:00pm - 2:00am
Extra Nights
During the holiday, Resonance FM joins Resonance Extra's service (broadcasting on DAB in Brighton & Hove), offering a wide range of new music and sound art shows curated by Peter Lanceley. Tonight: Timeless Passion at 6pm; A Duck in a Tree (The Fibres of a Narrative Arc) at 7pm; and a Splice Free Special at 8pm till 2am.
