Late Lunch with Out to Lunch
Polemic, politics, mouth jazz and spontaneous music with Ben Watson. In a special episode called "Free Jazz Communism", Ben presents music played by Archie Shepp in Helsinki in 1962, and by AMM All-Stars at the Betsey Trotwood in Clerkenwell, London last Friday. Shepp's quintet was a contribution to the Eight World Festival of Youth and Students courtesy Soviet funding, and was the subject of the Rab-Rab publication Free Jazz Communism (2020). Musicians were: Archie Shepp (tenor sax), Bill Dixon (trumpet), Perry Robinson (clarinet), Don Moore (bass) and Howard McRae (drums). The AMM All-Stars session featured a graphic poem by Out To Lunch called "Hot Intimate Breath Disdaining" which intimates to the avant imitator that sheer sound communicates despite your best-intention paving-stones. Musicians were: Out To Lunch (acoustic guitar, Yamaha electric keyboards), Graham Davis (synths, harmonica), Ian Dogstar (synth, backing vocals) and Dave Black (electric guitar). Peter Baxter's drums and Robert "Sugarlips" Goldsmith's percussion ("For Paul") were added in post-production. [Repeats Sunday 6am.]

The Sound Of Criticism
Part two of The Sound of Criticism features two further radio programmes developed as part of a London College of Communication, UAL, MA Sound Arts writing workshop in which the participants engaged in the role of writing in the production of sound arts/sonic discourse. They explored the idea of sound art reviews/sound art criticism and the (written) engagement with performances and exhibitions not as new interpretation but as a materialisation though sonic conversation of new and diverse possibilities. Today: Programme 4. In traditional Chinese literature, the five elements gold, wood, water, fire and soil generate and change all matter through the interconnected relationships between these fundamental forces, with each element influencing and transforming the others in a cyclical pattern. This programme works with this concept of interaction to produce new matter from five different sonic reviews. Artists Xingyi Liu, Jiaxin Wang, Zhaoyuan Shi, Siyao Li and Jinyuan Guo have interlaced their sonic reviews with different sounds such as wood knocking, wind blowing leaves, knocking iron blocks and flowing water. [Repeats Friday 3.30am.]
