Sound produced for performance by Sophie Rogers at Tenderbooks for Diaspore "If Dolphins had Thumbs"

"The work explores a speculative future where dolphins have left for an alternate earth, leaving humans to their fate. Pulling together content from online discussion websites, scientific research and science fiction, Sophie Rogers imagines a marine metropolis and functioning society led by the dolphins. For this performance, she has invited artist Poppy Moroney to respond to the themes and visuals of the project by curating a mix to be played alongside the slideshow."

Mix for Montez Press Radio - SILT

Collaging electro acoustic and tape music, hardcore, experimental and granular synthesis and musique concrete, Silt explores an aural sketchbook of music and sounds touching on leisure, inertia and decomposition, a drift into dissolve.

Broadly about granulation, both as technique for disintegrating sound and also as a poetic framework, the show mixes clips of people mudlarking on the Thames with my own and others' recordings.

BIO

Pound a pop is a show in which P~WAVE will be mixing and discussing records that she's foraged from record shop bargain bins and charity shops. 

Needless to say record collecting can be an elitist and, quite frankly, expensive pursuit, one could easily blow tens, hundreds if not thousands of pounds on one record alone. In 2018 for example, an unreleased 7inch of God Save the Queen by Sex Pistols sold for $16,125.18, which to the 21st century bystander is a predictable yet still depressing turn of events.

Within the bargain bins on the other hand, lies a real treasure trove, where you can get more bang for your buck, and uncover tunes and cultural narratives that tell a different story. In this show, amongst playing and toasting great tunes and artists she's come across digging, she'll be sharing personal musings exploring some of the adjacent narratives around cultural, material and economic value within music that emerge on closer inspection of the bargain bins and vinyl contained within them.

Or in other words, what makes one piece of plastic worth more than another piece of plastic.

So join her for an hour long excursion into the deeper recesses of music’s dusty nether regions, there’s not a lot of time and a whole lot of records, let’s get on with it!!
