The Birmingham Post reports that South Birmingham Community Radio is due to commence broadcasting on the FM band this coming Saturday. The article also covers the setting up of Rhubarb Radio, which was mentioned on this weblog previously.
In all fairness, we only glanced at the BBC’s online section on experimental music extremely rarely but even so we were surprised to see that it has been axed, apparently as of late June.
The “Accessibility help” link on the same page was presumably in vain.
Work is well under way to create a new community radio station for Birmingham (England). Once you know that the project is based at the Custard Factory, the name, Rhubarb Radio, makes more sense. Discussions and progress can be followed on the weblog for the project.
The latest jingle accompanying your purchase of frozen peas from Spar (selected branches only) is:”Love life – Love Spar!”.W.T. F…??!!
More music! Across the nation! With Spar Live!- urges the pre-recorded female voice across the shop’s speaker system, in a tone that combines the rapture of corporate employees flattering the boss with the reassuring cheer of a parent telling a timid child about a surprise trip to Disneyland. The somnolent singing of Amy Winehouse follows… More music! More music! How could you stand to buy your baked beans without the accompaniment of golden oldies, new tunes in an oldie style, and lots of smug jingles reminding you where you are, you idiot?Whilst some shoppers might prefer the constant honking of horns by clowns riding up and down the aisles on unicycles, radio remains a much more cost-effective way to really piss people off.
Anonradio streams programmes of experimental, unusual and unfairly neglected music over the Internet. You can find out more about the music behind such show titles as Background Noise, Wednesday Night is Garbage Night and The Gravy Train at Anonradio’s (still fairly new) home at anonradio.wordpress.com.
The newest addition to the line-up is Liberation Through Listening, which features music by Cousin Silas, Cabaret Voltaire, Faust, Cathy Berberian, Luciano Berio, Annette Peacock, John Keating, Mort Garson, Baby Buddha, Arahang, Christian Vander and more.
