Bea speaks with Cassandra Kislenko about ethical and political issues with Canada's expansion of MAiD (Medical Assistance in Dying) laws and how we should understand them as a handful of U.S. states seek to implement similar laws. Then, we talk about issues with looking to the Canadian healthcare system as a model for socialized medicine in the U.S.

Don’t believe your ears - Pepper’s Ghost is the latest offering from NYC project Nuke Watch.

Whatever you think it is - it is not. By the same token it really can be whatever you want - electronica, jazz, improv, noise, new age, ambient - it’s none and all of these. Like the primitive visual illusion it’s named for - Pepper’s Ghost is a projection of a thing, it’s not the thing.

The Nuke Watch method - like that of Aaron Anderson and Chris Hontos’ other primary project Beat Detectives - leans almost entirely on live improvisation, with some advanced studio alchemy in post. Where the Beat Detectives palette draws from club music tropes, Nuke Watch blends recognizable tones (hand drums, woodwinds, keys, fretless bass) with sounds of providence unknown, the line between organic and synthesized instrumentation unintelligibly smudged. What is real and what is projection? It’s hard to say. What do our ears tell us? This is where we arrive at Pepper’s Ghost.

Warped as the sounds may be, the playing belies a crew of deeply expressive, learned improvisers who have their craft honed. Their friendship and psychic connection enhances the ritualistic rhythms, mutant modular synthesis, nimble keyboard runs, absurdist sampling and unidentified skronk. They’re wonderfully complemented across several tracks on this set by Cole Pulice’s levitational, sublime saxophone.

As unhinged as this might all appear, once the mind and music meet on the same wavelength this is profoundly moving, energizing and uplifting Alive Music that recalibrates the sense of what music can be. 

Nuke Watch is Aaron Anderson and Chris Hontos, with an array of friendly guests. They’ve released records as Nuke Watch on The Trilogy Tapes, Commend and Moon Glyph. As Beat Detectives they’ve released records on Not Not Fun, 100% Silk and their own studio imprint NYPD Records.

Pepper's Ghost was written and produced by Aaron Anderson and Chris Hontos. Additional instrumentation on these recordings by Cole Pulice, Leonard King, Eric Timothy Carlson, Chris Farstad and William Statler. It was mixed by Chris Hontos and mastered by Jack Callahan. Painting on the cover is “The Unity Of Being” (2020), by Ry Fyan. Design and layout by Aaron Anderson.

Nuke Watch - Pepper's Ghost (IMPTNC07) - Previews

Sounds of Belgian/Iraqi trio Use Knife in an hour long show, marking the release of their remix EP, 'Peace Carnival.' 

"Carnival's usual satire and mockery should be directed towards the one-sided definition of 'so-called' peace, because to be clear: there cannot be real peace without justice or freedom. Expect a deep dive into Use Knife’s music and influences and some tracks that are not-so-subtle attempts to expose this deceptive vision on peace."

Celebrating the recent release of his debut album Your Day Will Come on Jagjaguwar, our Bleep Mix this week is from Chanel Beads, the project of New York-based musician Shane Lavers currently on tour supporting Mount Kimbie in their early summer run of US dates.

A welcome accompaniment to the warmer climes breathing through at the moment, @chanel-beads' selections draw from the same R&B laced lo-fi indie ambience Lavers has carved out for himself with a host of seemingly disparate yet ultimately cohesive selection taking in Van Morrison, ML Buch, his own edit of Caroline Polachek, Blawan, Tirzah and John T. Gast. Recommend listening whilst in the shade from the midday sun with Negroni in hand.
