This was a show for Ub Radio / DFM created live by the Remote Operator (Fausto) from the s&S Radio studio. This was a rolling, evolving, rather cinematic collage of original field and studio recordings and live sounds. Featured were layered original field recordings from our many years in China and more recently Aotearoa (New Zealand); bits and pieces from the studio; live processing and merrymaking. I was streaming a feed from NZ to the Ub radio folks in California who then added live a few periodic sounds on top and filled in with the intermission after the first hour. This unedited recording is only the output from my side, line-out from the studio mixer. Its rather dense and sonically packed to stimulate your mind’s eye nonetheless. Enjoy!

Herein is this special new mix-tapey show called “At the Listener Sounds Plaza”.  It’s a 60 min collection of music crafted by several of the sonically talented listeners and radio friends of s&S. We’d like to make this a regular show exclusively featuring homemade offerings from our radio pals and members of our global listenership if there is interest. What do you think? Installment #2 to air live soon.

#1 is here on Mixcloud. Full playlist info on the page:

If you’re a current listener, long-time fan, friend of s&S the radio stream, etc and you’d like to send over some of your sounds to potentially land a spot at our imaginary Listener Sounds Plaza for a future show, just get in touch via the contact page.

I’m often amazed by the range and creative chops of so many  folks on the other end of this noise pipe…and as a ‘thank you’ for keeping me inspired, maybe we here at s&S  can give you a salute & stage at the Listener Sounds Plaza.  (I do reserve the right to pick and choose to best represent the quality and range of stuff that comes in though

…starting a monthly s&S guest slot on Auckland, NZ’s AFM station with ‘The Rinse Repeater‘, which “uses found sound, voices, real world noises plus original and borrowed musical elements to explore a cacophonous, angst and paranoia filled world for a kind of ‘gentler’, precarious harmony through recontextualisation, adaptation and humour.” have a listen! 1 hour.

This is an hour-long conversational interview I recently did on the on Marcus Zilz’s ‘Mount Wobble’ show on the experimental Cashmere Radio (Berlin) where I blabbed about 20 years of s&S Radio, life experiences including the Bay Area years, the decade and a half in the peripheries of China, the recent shift to the bottom of the world + ‘this & that’ – with s&S Radio sounds and noodles playing in the background throughout. Have a listen !
