The Early Bird Show w/ Maria Somerville & Baptist Goth 290823

For this exclusive mix for (EE) Radio, Ege Şahin was interested in the commonalities between non-western traditional music and experimental sonic explorations from around the world, through which folk, religious music, noise, avant-garde jazz, and various field recording practices emerge as a collage of devotion and sacrifice.

aural conduct #11 on Echobox 21-02-2025

Early this year, we reviewed Nour Sokhon's Beirut Birds, which Richard Allen found to be "teeming with urgency, ... an example of an album released at exactly the right time." Another recent record, Beyond All Borderlines, is an evocative collaboration fusing Sokhon's field recordings and electronics with piano improvisations from Montreal's Stefan Christoff, released on Ruptured. Late last year, that label released Yara Asmar's engrossing Stuttering Music, and we've been deeply impressed by their ongoing output, with some very exciting releases on the horizon. For this joint mix, regular mix contributor Christoff joins Ruptured label owner Ziad Nawfal to select and mix various songs with field recording contributions by Sokhon. The accompanying artwork is by Mexico City based artist Margarita Barros, who also created the cover art for Beyond All Borderlines. Happy Listening.

Monde Magique: L/MA0RI invite EDÓS (26.04.25)

A monthly selection of alternative and experimental music from Lebanon and the MENA region, selected by radio host and music producer Ziad Nawfal. Featuring new and older tracks, live sessions, exclusive demos and more, from up-and-coming artists as well as established ones.
“This mix, Qulubuna, is named after a track I composed for the Zilzal: Sonic Ceremony compilation. Qulubuna means “our hearts” in Arabic, and it reflects the whirlwind of emotions I’ve been experiencing over the past year and a half, watching the violence escalate—and continue to escalate—from afar. Through sound, I try to process the grief, helplessness, and longing that come with bearing witness from a distance.”

aural conduct #12 on Echobox 10-04-2025

In this conversation editor-in-chief Irene de Craen talks with visual artist, educator and independent researcher Milena Bonilla about her work on the herbarium of Rosa Luxemburg and the many connections to epistemologies anathema to capitalism as well as historic and present-day struggles. Throughout her work, Bonilla has researched how the dismissal of the spiritual and other meanings of plants have caused a lot of violence in the world. Taking Luxemburg as an example, we examine how listening to plants and elements that are considered silent in western thinking, is both an act of resistance as well as care.

Ireland raised, EDÓS will carry some noisy samples from the north in digital/metal/seed form. Inspired by the nests built both by feathered and six-legged creatures, he will share recent rummages in jazz/post-punk from the wooden roost in the park.
