    Greetings Traveller,
    Another episode of Shoreline of Infinity's Soundwave is here to hear. 
    On this installment we've got a story that is both cheerily about those cheeriest of creatures, bumble bees, while also being about how humans in general largely polite anything beyond ever being considered even close to a paradise.
    We've also got some poetry in the form of South by Marge Simon and a really wonderful episode of Sonic Space in which sci-fi author Dr. Pippa Goldschmidt and I go merrily meandering through time, discussing World War 2 events and scientist who became death, the destroyer of worlds as well as her own books and writing process. It's well worth forking out for the extended version if I'm being honest, with 20 odd minutes of delicious bonus discourse in there.I hope you enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed putting it together.

    Episode Six

    Welcome Travellers,In this episode of Soundwave we're keeping it simple. One poem, one story, one interview, one song, minimum waffle from myself.
    The reasons for that are twofold. Firstly,  I am being brazenly lazy. Secondly, the structure of this episode just doesn't lend itself to my waffling (if you do like my waffle about things like the correlation between sci-fi and cakes [see last episode] then there's still a bit at the end for you). The opening poem, short as it is, effectively lays out why sci-fi is so important and is something of a mission statement for the episode, if not the entirety of Soundwave.
    It just didn't seem right to fill the gaps, and frankly nothing needed saying at that point so I've just decided to go straight into our nice, lengthy story that resonates with our own time. Certainly one to walk through your local wooded area to. I'm serious. Save this one up and go for a walk at the nearest convenient forest. You can thank me later. Then we have a far reaching chat about science and science fiction on Sonic Space this episode between astrophysicist and SF author David L Clements and myself.
    You might remember that we featured one of his stories on Episode Five, Something Fishy, narrated by Debbie Cannon.It just flowed too nicely for me to waffle through. Don't worry though, I'm sure I'll feel the urge to ruin whatever excellent content we have next episode.
    While I'm here, we’d really appreciate a kind review on iTunes, or indeed, whatever podcast platform you’re listening via. ~ Director Overtect Verbistect Loquenist Voxtext RJ Bayley

    Episode Five

    Greetings Travellers, 
    Firstly, allow me to offer my humblest apologies for the tardiness of this episode. An explanation is given in the episode itself, but ultimately, it's all my fault and I am sorry.
    Rest assured I'll be doubling down in the near future and putting together another episode for you, the STG, to devour sooner rather than later. This will hopefully negate any time lost to our glorious cause of spreading the healing sounds of SF across the galaxy.
    As part of my reparations I offer you this, a bumper episode of SF content of the highest order. We've got two meaty audio stories with fabulous writing and narration for you to get involved in punctuated by some poetry of equally high caliber.
    We've also got a Sonic Space with Laura Lam, the fun and intelligent author behind the Micah Grey and Pacifica books.
    And if that wasn't trying almost too hard to make up for the timing of this episode, we've also been gifted the experimental synth dreampop of L-Space to play out with.
    If you wouldn't mind, please consider subscribing to the Soundwave levels on our Patreon. It really helps continue the production of this show, and as the Patreon grows, I'll be able to turn down unexpected jobs from animation studios because I'm forced to prioritise Soundwave and not the other way around.The Stella Conlator Guild and our Patreon is still in its early days, but then the Imperium of Man wasn't built in a day.

    Episode Four

    Greetings Travellers,
     


    On this episode of Soundwave we bring you an almost inescapable deluge of high quality SF content.
     


    In what seems like an alarming early trend, our three stories this week are linked again by death, but while last episode emphasised the speculative aspect of SF, this instalment's are firmly in the science mode.
     


    For Sonic Space I sat down for a very cosy chat with Sam Dolan, reviews editor of an award winning science fiction magazine you might have heard of. If you're a criticism nerd the unabridged version is also on Patreon, which finds us taking a deeper dive into literary theory and discussing The Death of the Author, genre, literary fiction, racist language in older fiction, authorial construction and responsibility and more.
     


    I'm also delighted to bring you an exclusive from a favourite band of mine, Cellar Darling: an extract from their audiobook which accompanies their new concept album, and the track it pairs with.
     
    As of writing you can't hear any of the audiobook outside of the physical special edition CD, and the poetic piece I've selected works beautifully as moody spoken word in its own right.
     
    We've also got 3 audio stories for you to enjoy as you, read by Jonathan Whiteside Playwright/Actor, Sue Gyford and the debut of Voxtext Ben Blow.

    Episode Three

    Episode Three

    Greetings Traveller,
    in this instalment we're fleshing out the S that stands for 'speculative' in 'speculative fiction', as our poem and short story show us opposite sides of the great divide between life and death.
    Also as a special treat we're proud to present you with a sonic experience that's well worth cracking out your posh headphones for. Our audio drama, Republic of David presents a scenario akin to hell, or possibly heaven if you're extremely far along the narcissism scale.
    Our music this week is a dark synthwave piece that serves as the closing music to both the audiodrama and the podcast itself, so perfectly does it lend itself to both situations.
    If you appreciate the extra effort of the podcast, could I encourage you to look at the Soundwave specific levels on our Patreon? It's less than a big cup of coffee.
    In fact, why not go to your favourite coffee shop, listen to this with a brew, and marvel at how comparatively inexpensive our Soundwave Patreon levels are compared with what you've just ordered? Perhaps even become a Chrono Receptor or Receptor Interrolyst while you're there and know you can head back the next week and make it a tradition... mmmmmmmm coffee and sci-fi...
