Gravity Waves and the Spirit World on ResonanceExtra FM, DAB radio or online at extra.resonance.fm/

There will be no Gravity Waves and The Spirit World radio show this month as Resonance Extra is being taken over by the Outlands network to coincide with their Joyous Thing event in Milton Keynes.

We’d recommend listening to the whole thing as there is no doubt that there will be lots of the good stuff.

The February edition of the Spirit of Gravity Radio show is available on the ResonanceFM Mixcloud page:
www.mixcloud.com/resonanceextra/gravity-waves-and-the-spirit-world-february-2022-27th-february-2022/
This edition includes a track from Raeppen that didn’t make it onto the Elliptical Orbits 2 compilation, 2 tracks from the latest SoG release Washing Up Time, plus the usual melange of sounds from the orbit of The Spirit of Gravity.

The Spirit of Gravity is continuing to pump out strange, unusual and inspired sounds via netlabel releases.

Washing Up Time is a 36-track compilation curated by Nil By Nose.

During the first lockdown, looking for ways to make a difference to the days, Nil By Nose started to livestream himself doing the washing up.
‘To keep things interesting for myself ’, he avers, ‘ I started to run the sound of the washing up though a Gechologic Loopsynth while I streamed. As I listened I noticed that the looping created interesting rhythms and textures.’

This prompted the idea of a collaborative project, using his audio as a base. The result is 36 astonishingly varied tracks – by some people who we know, and some who we
don’t – that will take you to some far-flung shores of electronica and experimentalia.

Featuring: MELJOANN / R. DYER / IPLU

Meljoann: dystopian pop, disorientating noises, corporate video testimonials
R. Dyer: odd songs built from memories and stray kit
Iplu: abstract electronica and minimalist ambient improv for the bain malt.

R. Dyer uses saxophone, saw, harp, found sounds, tape samples, looped vocals and synth to create mesmerising baroque pop laced with chaotic improvisation.

Originally from Dublin, Meljoann produces experimental electronic pop. In her latest single ‘Assfuck the Boss’, she explores the “stockholm syndrome of the employed”. Her sound has been described as “like a long-lost soul-pop album from the mid-1990s as remixed by Aphex Twin” (Eamon de Paor, Metro Herald)
About her latest album “HR” Pitchfork say: “In its social venom and unsparing bleakness, the album’s closest peer is probably U.S. Girls’ In a Poem Unlimited. But HR is both a one-woman show and a far less heady one: too furious for subtlety.”

Arthur “Junior” Robinson is Iplu – field recordings and electronics are a natural step up from his previous project W3imaraner. Limited hand-dubbed baby blue c28s. Probably Retrac’s best sounding tape yet!
