  1. Hope and Fear

    5D AGO

    Hope and Fear

    Fear and hope often live together in an uneasy collaboration. Today we explore both emotions, and the boundaries between the two.

  2. Colder Sun

    FEB 15

    Colder Sun

    Last week we did a show called Cold Sun, and in the course of the show I was asked if I were going to play anything by the project called Cold Sun. I confess I had forgotten about this particular project (shame on me!), and we didn’t have any of the music in our library… until now. This week I’m making up for it by playing tracks from Cold Sun, also known as Simon Slator, a longtime ambient artist based in the UK. Antarctica Mount Erebus Antarctica Rain Piano in the Rain L’arc-en-ciel In the second hour, the live set will be called Colder Sun and is inspired by the sounds of Cold Sun.

  3. Cold Sun

    Cold Sun

    It’s interesting how random remarks in life cause crazy inspiration. This past week I read a weather update from our local (very skilled) meteorologist who referred to the “cold sun” — and that hooked me. So here’s a very chilly show about the sun in winter, and other types of cold light. playman54: “Misty Light Through Skeleton Trees” (Reflections of Winter Landscapes) Christopher Short – Guitartronics: “Strange Lights in the Mist” (Winter Soundscapes 2014) ontol: “the sign of a sideways winter never showing you should” (photocopies) Darkened Soul: “Winter’s Cold Stare” (Seasons of Dark and Light) mindSpiral: “Winter Garden” (Curiosa Positronica) George L Smyth: “Winter Sun” (Haiku Music, Volume 5) usr/sbin: “Night Fog, Morning Sun” (Deep Winter, North Texas Skies) zucchini: “grey sky” (winter EP) Juta Takahashi: “The Door into Winter” (The Door into Winter) The live set in the second hour is called Cold Sun.

  4. Snow Moon

    FEB 1

    Snow Moon

    Today is the full “Snow” moon, shining its cold light on the winter world. Loneward: “Hush Upon the Wind” (Moongate) Conni St. Pierre: “Setting Moon” (Between the Branches: Legends Of The Wild) Roy Mattson: “Melancholy Moon” (Melancholy Moon) Jack Hertz: “Late Last Night We Played With The Moon” (FOURTH WORLD IS – Jon Hassell Tribute) James Shain: “Did the Moon Shine” (Windowless Journey) In the second hour, the live set is called Snow Moon, and is inspired by the Winter Embrace series by Altus, which is one of the sets of works that got ʞu¡0ɹʞS into ambient music in the first place, and has been in many ways a model of the production values I’ve been chasing lo these many years.

  5. Ice Ice Baby

    JAN 25

    Ice Ice Baby

    A large swath of the US is covered in dangerous ice and freezing rain this weekend. The ʞu¡0ɹʞS household has taken refuge outside the worst of it, but we know that some others of the RadioSpiral family are stuck in it. So today’s program is all about the ice, and we’re keeping good thoughts about all the folks stuck in the cold. No live set today — I didn’t bring the right gadgets to play a live show today. There’s also no video stream today. Janne Hanhisuanto: “Icescapes Movement 1” (Icescapes) Bing Satellites: “On The Ice” (The Visitor) Chris Kuborn: “Ice Caves” (Static Movement) Somnarium: “Ice” (Frost) Ben McCarthy: “beneath the ice, the river still flows [feat.

  6. In the Bleak

    JAN 11

    In the Bleak

    January and February tend to feel disproportionately long after the lights and anticipation of the winter holidays. But there is beauty in the bleakness, too — the quiet and stillness a good reminder that we can slow down for a while, and look inward. Today we feature a variety of artists from the RadioSpiral library: Sydalesis: “Bleak Landscape” (Living Machine) Altus: “Winter Embrace – Part II” (Winter Embrace (15th Anniversary Edition) George L Smyth: “The Heavy Winter Sun Appears” (Haiku Music – Volume 2) Cousin Silas: “The Stream Never Froze In Winter” (Festive) Lily Pond Orchestra: “Winter Stars Over Lily Pond” (Soft Observations) Christopher Short – Guitartronics: “Step Into the Light” (Winter Soundscapes 2014) grum~pe: “A Bleak Outlook” (Guided Apophenia) Jack Hertz: “Winter Breeze” (Compilated) Erik Wøllo: “Winter Tide, Part 2” (Winter Tide / Live at SoundQuest Fest 2021) Altocumulus: “Gothick Winter” (Unreleased) playman54: “Shadow Tracks of Ghostly Snow Beast” (Reflections of Winter Landscapes) Jack Hertz & Wolfgang Gsell: “A Cold Winter’s Light” (Sleeping Trees On Earth)

  7. JAN 4

    Electric Bones

    It’s an odd thing: the title of the live set for today came to me in a dream, with no other guidance. So I’m making today’s show about vibrancy, electricity, vitality, and joy. Bing Satellites: “Electricity” (The ambient world of Bing Satellites, volume one: 2008 – 2010) Broekhuis, Keller & Schönwälder feat. Raughi Ebert & Thomas Kagermann: “Electric Chess” (Repelen Revisited) Spheric Lounge: “Electrically Charged Air” (Session 67 19.11.2006) Church of Hed: “Electric Sepulcher” (Electric Sepulcher) Indigo Symbol: “Electric Temple” (Parallel Worlds) Robert Carty: “Electric Skies” (Ethereal Deserts) M.NOMIZED: “Electric Bubbles” (Minimal Stories) The live set in the second hour is called Electric Bones, and will be an indulgence in joyful dance music. And to close the show, we played Boogie Belgique: “Forever & Ever” (Nightwalker vol 1) 4T Thieves: “Drifting in the Clouds” (The Singles) Erik Wøllo and Byron Metcalf: “Earth Luminous” (Earth Luminous)

    Yuletide

    The twelve nights of Yule begin around the solstice, which was last Sunday. These days are a liminal time when the veil between worlds is thin, and spirits, gods, and ancestors should be honored. It is also the time to welcome the return of the sun, who slowly wakes from his winter slumber. Our time starts in darkness, and then turns to greet the light. Welcome, one and all, to our Yuletide celebration! Wolcum Yole! Crows In the Garden: “It’s Growing Dark” (Atom) Michael Brückner: “Ancient Darkness” (Servant Of The Secret Fire (Drones, Atmospheres and Dreamscapes Vol. 1)) Franck Martin: “Dark Dance” (Cold) Kevin Fletcher Tweedy: “Dark Forest” (A Distant Vision) Not Your Average Hippy: “Balance With Nature” (Warm Ground Dark Sky) Dimitris: “Can You Find Me In The Dark” (Black & White) Phillip Wilkerson: “Cradled in Darkness” (Amorphous Worlds) Lucette Bourdin: “Crack of Dawn” (Rising Fog) In the second hour, the live set is another new effort from The Third Course, the collaboration between ʞu¡0ɹʞS and Pallid Mask, and it’s called Wolcom Yole!.
