From the Archives

20 years ago in June and July 1998, the first manifestation of Resonance FM took place on 107.3FM, broadcasting from the Royal Festival Hall. Instigated and curated by Phil England and Ed Baxter for London Musicians' Collective, this Resonance was a month long “art gallery of the airwaves”. This week on Resonance FM we present a selection of those original broadcasts. All timings approximate, in keeping with the spirit of the original.

11am: first, a miscellany of short pieces from the 1998 archives, including contributions by Xentos Fray Bentos, the late Paul Burwell, and Perry Roberts.

Partial Recall

20 years ago in June and July 1998, the first manifestation of Resonance FM took place on 107.3FM, broadcasting from the Royal Festival Hall.

1pm: Ian Breakwell's Clear Spot from June the 25th 1998. Venerable multi-media artist Ian was to recall that this broadcast included an epiphany that changed his perception entirely - when he realised that people were listening to him live not only in London but in New York.
2.10pm: Go! Made by guitarist and school teacher John Bisset, this daily multi-lingual inner city breakfast time jamboree is still a high water mark in radio-for-children; and while the contributors have all long since grown up, it hasn't aged a bit.
3pm: From 17 June 1998, the three hour “Slide Show on The Radio” by Greg Lucas and Ruth Collins hints at the imp of the perverse accessible in the acousmatic realm.
6pm: Clear Spot, with saxophonist Caroline Kraabel - and 20 years ago one of the key engineers at Resonance 107.3FM. This show from June 29 1998 brings together fellow saxophonists to explore the instrument in all its guises.

12 midnight: Quebec London Gift Exchange. This trans-Atlantic live improvisation over an ISDN line went out on the Summer Solstice in 1998. Based on a score by Quebecois artist Jocelyn Robert it's introduced by the artist behind the broadcast, Kaffe Matthews.
1am: Willem de Ridder and Andrew MacKenzie. A classic monologue by Dutch artist Willem De Ridder, a member of Fluxus and perhaps Europe's best known radio artist - one of the “patron saints” of Resonance.
1.15am: Clear Spot. Marion Coutts is nowadays well known as a visual artist and an award-winning writer. In the late 1990s she was just reaching the end of her activity as a musician and this rare broadcast perhaps finds her at a threshold.
4.10am: Grid Public Lock, a live radio art work by Resonance 107.3FM's artist-in-residence, Christof Migone. It;s is a piece that uses thee radio studio as a receiver and the public phone system as a transmitter. Two people leave the studio and go in opposite directions. They then phone in to the studio at every public phone box they come to. Random silences are filled by anonymous callers who figure out what's going on.
5.35am: Life Model, a documentary by Claudia Lee.

6am: Negativbreakfastland. Sent down the telephone line live from KPFA in San Francisco, the late Don Joyce and David Wills, aka The Weatherman adapt their midnight slot for listeners in London.
