WGXC 90.7-FM: Radio for Open Ears

90.7-FM in NY's Upper Hudson Valley and wgxc.org/listen everywhere

Produced by various artists.

Found sounds and field recordings from sound artist Christopher DeLaurenti. First, "Open Carrier: Citywide One Manhattan (found soundscape series no. 1)." "Open Carrier" is police parlance for a radio that has been inadvertently left on in talk/transmit mode, an "open carrier" stymies broadcast traffic, leaving so-called "dead air" to delineate sudden gaps, smudges of hiss, a hazy drone, beeping alerts, fragmented words, quick phrases, recessed conversations, and other unexpected artifacts. Then DeLaurenti's "Ferguson 9-13, August 2014." These are recordings from the protests surrounding the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, at the hands of the police. Also tune in DeLaurenti's "where my night sounds like" and "Adrift in New York."
