Audiopollen 07/06/06 11pm 4ZZZ 102.1FM Brisbane

Tonight we had two awesomely talented sound artists grace the airwaves with their sounds and play some of their favourite tracks.

Camilla Hannan, current Brisbane resident, regular contributor to the Liquid Architecture series and constructor of More Songs About Factories - an album constructed from factory sounds that IMHO is the link between "Chain Reaction" style minimal techno and electro-acoustic music.

Jodi Rose, of the Singing Bridges project that not only attempts to document the sound of bridges throughout the world but also landed her the Smarty Blog award for her travel diaries.

Audiopollen 31 May 2006

A mixed journey through various sounds.

Utterly Vacant by Plague Doctor (demo) plugging Listen Little Man3

Tonight we focused on the Tonschacht label from Cologne, Germany who sent us a brilliant package consisting of twenty 7" records. Oh happy day! Tonschacht grew out of a drone, noise, strangeness club night in the late 90's.  The catalogue has a nice antipodean influence with releases by rosy parlane and minit, but you know them (don't you?) so we played some of the stuff you haven't heard before (or have you?).
