A great recording, I love how the snow smothers the sound of the fireworks. No wind, no other noises.  Great work.

With this release, the duo known for a more grittier, dirty sound tries to find a dream-like soundscape, while still catching a good groove to it. Influence from a broad spectrum of styles can be heard through out each track, whilst still being executed with finesse.

The chunky basslines provide tonnes of driving momentum, trance-like melodies creep in as the songs progress, lending it all to an ethereal quality, suspending the listener between the physicality of the dancefloor and something perhaps less intangible.

22 hour radio broadcast on Radio Art Zone, 12 Aug 2022 from 2pm CEST - 13 Aug 2022 at midday

​Our recent work constructing ‘Open Wave-Receivers’ (self-powered radio receivers made from readily available and found materials)brings into focus the site-and-time specificity of radio reception. We experiment with designs that incorporate the physicalities of an immediate space into the circuit - such as coils wrapped around roof tiles, ground wires connected to garden taps, and antennas attached to fences - all of which set the circuit within a specific location. By listening over time, we notice the atmospheric and environmental influences on radio reception. We think of these and other radio devices in-situ as part of a larger constellation of bodies, materiality, and connection experienced through listening.

Over the course of 22 hours during Radio Art Zone, listeners were able to tune into Shortwave Collective engaged in collective and solitary listening experiences as we searched for radio reception through Open Wave-Receivers and other devices such as VHF and VLF receivers, software-defined radio, walkie-talkies, and electromagnetic detectors. Our collective material was sourced over many months and seasons, and across different time zones, from listening sites that connect environments, technologies and voices. Each recording was broadcast at (or close to) the hour it was originally heard. In two live sessions taking place during the Perseids meteor shower, Shortwave Collective members filtered recordings made by the group through their home environments: between 18:00-18:30 CEST on Friday 12th August from a garden in Crete, and 11:00-11:30 CEST on Saturday 13th August from a mountain in the south of France. Our 22 hours concluded from the garden in Crete for the final half hour.
