Unstable: Stable Program

"While making this album I was inspired by the scientific themes and topics expressed by both 1970s magazine "Radical Software" and 1980s magazine "OMNI" for their influence on the video synthesis and broadcasting culture of our present day. Radical Software arrived in 1969 at a time of major social upheaval. The Viet Nam war was raging and the loss of Martin Luther King exacerbated feelings that a war on race war seemed inevitable. The Nixon presidency amplified feelings of despair but compelled many to imagine alternatives to the soulless, murderous culture in they were existing in. The urge to create new cultural structures, developed revolutionary video hardware that would play a pivotal role in accelerating the social change people desired. Authors of the magazine understood that change would only occur by increasing the level of social pressure. Through their reading of Buckminster Fuller, Gregory Bateson and Marshall McLuhan, they realized what needed to be changed was not the machines, but the instructions used to operate them. The social implications proved radical hardware was fine but what was critically needed was "Radical Software". The magazine became a form of social activism. It would be a forum, a video craft how-to-magazine, a rudimentary marketing and distribution system for the burgeoning community, and a journal of philosophical speculation and political opinion for all who shared their vision. The cover of the album is created by CINEMA.AV using LZX video synthesizers."

Man Rei, aka Kristin Reiman, is an artist and musician based in Frankfurt. On discovering their work we were instantly taken by their hypnotic vocals that illuminate their perceptive and poetic writing.

As with their music, they approach this mix with a focused narrative. The storyteller morphs rhythmically through disparate voices, their words carrying us through shadowy atmospheres of music concrète and new age. Yet there's a lightness and playfulness that leads us through gothic overtones towards moments of radiant vocals, a carefree energy enticing us into a lucid daydream.

Man Rei's album 'Health' for Somewhere Between Tapes is due later this year.

indigoblue is a musician and sound artist living in Toulouse, France. With a strong interest in collective and horizontal practices, they’re involved in several local organisations and actively contribute to Toulouse’s scene.

They’re a cofounder of the collective Le Comité des Fêtes, which organises festive events in an autonomous ethos, driving inspiration from sound system culture and anti-authoritarian readings. They’re also involved in the organisation of the festival Les Siestes and the decentralised community Global URL Nation.

indigoblue’s solo practice takes interest in experimental forms of electronic music, with a particular focus on drone and field recording. They engage in diverse mediums such as composition, production, live performance and djing. Additionally, they run ‘spinal spiral’, a recurring show on Toulouse-based web radio Egregore.
-------
" I've been working on a collage including personal recordings and music with which I resonated. Most of the recordings were collected in the context of the preparation of festive events organized by a collective I'm a part of, Le Comité des Fêtes. Our events are organized in an autonomous and horizontal ethos, drawing heavy inspiration from sound system culture and anarchist readings. They usually take place in a community-driven space in Toulouse or temporary outdoor venues, where we try to think and act in resistance to oppressive and capitalist dynamics. Other recordings are extracted from my personal archive."

‎الأرض والحرية - Land and freedom - Tierra y Libertad - Terre et liberté - Земля та Свобода - Երկիր և Ազատությունը - Жер және бостандық 

This new edition of 24 hrs/Palestine will take place on April 6 and 7, midway between two important dates for Palestine: Land Day (March 30) and Prisoner’s Day (April 17). The contributions and interventions of this new edition are an attempt to think with these two days in the midst of the colonial war and genocide in Gaza.
 
Land and Freedom are not just slogans. They are daily struggles that the Palestinian people have been waging for decades. Marching on 1m² of earth or digging a few cm into a prison floor with a spoon are acts of resistance whose echoes will be reverberating around the world on April 6 and 7, 2024.

Land and freedom. These words will circulate across languages and geographies. Tierra y Libertad, الأرض والحرية, Земля та Свобода, Terre et Liberté... They are part of, and resonate within, a revolutionary and anti-colonialist pathway rooted in peasant movements for land, fights against slavery, fights against layers of oppression, for liberation, and for self-determination.

Reverberating resistances programme Radio Fantasia x Plotting Institute text: 
Reverberating Resistances is a translocal sharing of sonic statements, relating land-based struggles.  It is co-organised by Radio Fantasia and Plotting Institute. 
Overlapping liberation struggles show that colonialism is an international project, maintained by competition and collaboration between Western and non-Western empires. How to carry each other’s voices as they keep being silenced?  To counter violent imperial clashes and overlaps, we create a space for reverberations in solidarity with resistance to Israeli settler colonial project.  Participants resonate with Palestinian struggle from situated positions of Crimean Tatar, Ukranian, Armenian, Uyghur, Bashkort, Qazaq resistances to Russian, Turkish, Azerbaijani, Chinese states colonial projects. 

We start from grief for the lives taken and lands contaminated. To find the methods of sabotage, refusal and reclamation, we analyse the imperial overlaps and exchanges of deadly technologies. And then move towards collectively crafting a radical hope to echo across contexts.

"Last year, I was invited to perform at SPRH’s annual fundraiser event ‘Beats across Borders’, dedicated to supporting refugees in Paris. I created a 3 decks set for this occasion, weaving together artists from the SWANA region and beyond. As an artist (and a human mostly), engaging in charity events and volunteering to NGO° has been an integral part of my journey from the outset. 

In an age where struggles are disturbingly confined to the digital realm, and cultural workers are closely associated to their digital persona, I find peace in tangible actions. I thrive through them as a (very tiny) form of relief in myself amidst the out-of-control global chaos in the world - at different scales of intensity in each specific places. I believe that the value lies not in who does the most, but in each individual making a contribution, commensurate with their own capacity and resources - be it emotional or material. It’s a collective endeavor and journey we must undertake together, uniting in solidary to confront the challenges ahead. Only through community we can heal and progress in these uncertain times."

Layering sounds ranging from dark ambient to rythmic noise, her sets are build as liquid narratives haunted by voice samples from poetry to political archives. Navigating a wide range of genres and emotions, she sparks intensity through combining melodious sounds with more dissonant and brutal ones. Resident at Hong Kong Community Radio (HKCR) with her '𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖆𝖘𝖒𝖆𝖌𝖔𝖗𝖎𝖆’ show, she has played with several collectives across Europe.

088 – Sainte Marina

Kill, kill, kill for peace / The whites are killing Don't die Don't hold your breath Don't die / But Please / This land is your land, and this land is my land / A long time ago they started believing they were superior to everybody else / From coup d’état, to coup d’état / We just want the freedom Keep asking in vain / In this case the victims are people who owe allegiance to neither side / Happened at Al-Amiriyah / There’s a difference between peace and liberation, is there not? / These are the words, the words that make murder.
What if I take my problem to the United Nations? / I didn’t know and nobody told me and what could I do or say, anyway? / They said they were victims. They said you were
Arabs. / Didn’t you read the leaflets that they dropped from their hotshot fighter jets? / Music Won’t Save You

Use Knife is the Belgian-Iraqi band formed by Kwinten Mordijck, Saif Al-Qaissy and Stef Heeren, in collaboration with visual artist Youniss Ahamad.

In September 2022, Use Knife released their debut album, 'The Shedding of Skin,' on VIERNULVIER records (Gent, BE). This record revolved around human resilience and the courage to build a new life in an entirely different environment. One year later, Use Knife returned with ‘Sowieso F***ed’, a provocative anthem characterized by its chaotic blend of samples and sounds, “There is nothing half-hearted about Use Knife as a live act. You get the distinct feeling that each member is totally energised by this iteration of their collective art. A Belgian article dubbed their sound “electronic outsider music,” yet for me it is an all-embracing vortex that allows those experiencing it a chance to plunge, headfirst, into a hypnotic state that veers between a dreamlike trance and a sensual workout.” wrote The Quietus.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
On April 8 2024, Use Knife released the remix 10” vinyl EP 'Peace Carnival' through Berlin's Morphine Records. Zoë Mc Pherson, Rabih Beaini, and Muqata’a have reinterpreted three tracks from Use Knife's debut album. The EP challenges the narrative around peace through its percussions, glitches, distortions, and Muslimgauze-esque minimalism to rethink and transform perceptions of justice and freedom.

This year, Carnival’s usual satire and mockery target any one-sided ‘peace’.

Since February 2023, Use Knife has been hosting a monthly radio show titled 'Feeding the Gentry' on Palestinian station 'Radio alHara' (also featured on NTS Radio, Rinse.fm, and Kiosk Radio).

089 – Use Knife – Peace Carnival

I remember making this track:

I was walking through Glasgow, handing out CV's because my parents had told me I needed a job, even though I was studying, so I could get another job in the future (no gaps in my employment record). It was raining and I didn't want a job. CV after CV was handed in. If you've never been to Glasgow, I can tell you the rain is very "sharp"; it cuts through your clothes and stings like little bolts of electricity surging though your body (not like Edinburgh rain).

While I was on Great Western Road, near the Botanical gardens, I had this strange recolection of the way I felt in High School: a sense of confusion and non-belonging; disphoric. The fact that the person I was then was almost completely erased from memory, a blur, yet still present years later, was strange and relativley existential. 

I went home and made this, and as strange as it is, this piece of music sounded exactly the way I felt in that specific moment. And for that reason I've always considered this paticular track a creative, artistic success.
