1. Radia s12 119 TapeBeatles Resonance.
Music collage from Prague-based duo produced for Radia on behalf of Resonance FM. Selection of works combine voice, loops, and layered sounds.
The Tape-beatles formed in Iowa City, USA in 1987 and have been based in Prague since 2000, when Lloyd Dunn joined John Heck there. Some works in the program were created during the production of the CD and film Good Times, but were not included. ‘Stolen Bicycle’ was created for a uncompleted compilation of works based on DJ Spooky samples. The later portion includes the most recent work, completed June 2007. Go to http://pwp.detritus.net for information on Tape-beatles, discography, and live performed cinema.
2. Radia s29 n400 corax Halle Geerken Bombus Terrestris Revisited.
Musician and sound artists Hartmut Geerken lives in the middle of
Bavaria in Wartaweill and works with the sounds of surrounding nature.
His ways to communicate with the animals are the present to celebrate
the 400th Radia show this week. We follow Geerken into a nest of
bumblebees and listen to the queen and all the smart insects while
having breakfast, lunch and dinner.
