  1. Evan Parker: "The Heraclitean Two-Step etc." Unveiled

    Evan Parker: "The Heraclitean Two-Step etc." Unveiled

    To celebrate the release of The Heraclitean Two-Step, etc., Evan Parker sat down with composer, producer, and sound designer Matt Wright for a revealing and wide-ranging interview. This incredible Ramsgate Radio feature offers an intimate glimpse into Parker’s process, philosophy, and the creative journey behind this monumental box set. Spanning four discs, with three recorded at Ramsgate’s Arco Barco / Ramsgate Radio Studios by Filipe Gomes, The Heraclitean Two-Step, etc. is a comprehensive reflection on Parker’s decades-long career. The interview dives deep into the origins of the project, beginning with a 1994 solo recording in a Unitarian Chapel in Warwick. Parker describes how this singular 20-minute piece, shaped by the chapel’s rich acoustics, lingered as an unresolved question for years before becoming the foundation for his current work. The interview highlights Parker’s collaborations, emphasising the importance of Arco Barco’s acoustics and the studio’s role as an active participant in the recordings. Wright’s thoughtful questions explore themes of freedom, structure, and the role of space in Parker’s music. Together, they reflect on the philosophical framework of the project, inspired by Heraclitus’ concept that “you cannot step in the same river twice.” This conversation also delves into the broader scope of the box set, including curated texts, interviews, and visual collages that accompany the music. These elements provide historical and personal context, adding depth to the release and showcasing Parker’s ability to transcend traditional boundaries between music and other art forms—thoughtfully and beautifully brought together by the incredible False Walls record label. Marking this release with such a rich and engaging discussion, we invite listeners to step beyond the music and into the heart of its creation. The Heraclitean Two-Step, etc. is a mesmerising collection of recordings and a dynamic conversation about time, memory, and the unending pursuit of artistic discovery. For fans of experimental music and improvisation, this interview and release stand as a testament to Parker’s enduring influence and creativity.

  3. Street Photography - In Analogue

    Street Photography - In Analogue

    To the person behind the camera, street photography forces them into the reality of the frame, even as an observer. It’s a challenge at the best of times, but to then confine yourself to capturing the moment on an analog format, requires a huge amount of awareness of just how delicate the shot is. Not only do you have to get your settings right before you release the shutter, you must time it perfectly. But beyond the craft itself, this kind of photography is ultimately about saying; I see you, I see the complexities, I see what others might not. In this episode we talk to Wayne Waterson and Dean Scutt (two street photographers) about their experience, their motivations, why they work with analog, and all of the key questions surrounding the importance of street photography in a world of ‘perfect’ images.

    In August 2021 we visited Marianne Dissard at her photographic installation in Ramsgate Port. Marianne’s documentation of lockdown throughout Christmas is quite simply staggering. The installation is dedicated to the ‘lost to Covid’ echoing the Sailors Church at the Royal Harbour which is to the ‘lost at sea’. ​ In this exclusive Analysis programme, we walk through the installation with Marianne, discussing the work and the stories behind the photographs.
