01.01.10 - A Rock and a Hard Place – 11:45 - 201 kbps [VBR]

Eighty miles off the coast of mainland Scotland, the archipelago of St Kilda is host to almost a million seabirds each summer. Beginning underwater, this journey takes in the remote island group – with its gurgling seawash, gannets and storm petrel – before sailing east to the Shiants, home to puffins, guillemots, fulmars and razorbills. Finally, a mix of the exotic and commonplace – Carrion crow, wren, herring gulls. heron, ringed plover, cuckoo, oystercatcher, song thrush, common sandpiper – heard at dawn on the island of Rhona.


Sound and photography: Pascal Wyse and Tom Haines. Recorded in June 2009 with Dolphin Ear hydrophones, Sennheiser and DPA microphones and Sound Devices recorders.

10 января 23:20. Независимая электронная музыка - история и современность, выпуск 67

автор: Дмитрий Васильев

Big City Orchestra - ветераны кассетной сети, отметившие в прошлом году своё 30-летие. Их музыка - бескрайняя область, изучить которую до конца при такой огромной дискографии не представляется возможным. Тем не менее, мы с вами можем послушать в рамках передачи треки с альбомов "The Man Of Steal" (1989, audiofile Tapes), "My Life In The Bush Of Kate" (1987, UBUIBI), "Reach for the Moon" (1990, UBUIBI), "The Four Cassettes Of The Apocalypse" (1991, Subelectrick Institute), "Greatest Hits And Test Tones" (1993, Pogus), "Beatlerape" (1994, Staalplaat), "The Consumer" (1995, Commercial Failure), "Instruction For Use Of Your BCO SFX Library" (1996, RRRecords) и "Eerily" (2009, EE Tapes).
