Cashmere Radio presents the Signalling Distance Tapes
Posted March 6, 13:32 hr
Cashmere Radio is extremely pleased to present its first ever release, Signalling Distance.
The four-cassette box set documents a live performance series by the same name that took place at the station’s Berlin studio over the course of 2019. The performance series brought together four pioneering contemporary exponents of electro-acoustic music, all of whom were invited to explore the dynamic relationship between microphone technique, the exigencies of acoustic sound transmission, and the spatial complexities of live performance. With a live audience present for each performance (although physically displaced from the source of sound), these radiophonic performances aimed to explore the connections and contingencies between being on stage and on air, as well as the modes of listening for audiences suspended between concrete and virtual realms.
The 2019 series features Tomoko Sauvage, Birgit Ulher, Yann Gourdon and Lucio Capace. Get a copy, limited to 40 tapes per performance: https://cashmereradio.bandcamp.com/
These tapes feature the full recording of each of the commissioned performances. Spread across four cassettes, each tape is a fragment offering a unique snapshot into the artists’ discrete practice and the creative links that bind their experiments together.
Signalling Distance was made possible thanks to the generous support of Initiative Neue Musik Berlin. Alongside the cassettes, a reportage and interview with each performer and a show maker from the station was made to accompany the live performances. You can find them all on the Cashmere website here.
