"New Future City Radio" by Damon Locks and Rob Mazurek (2023) is featured, introduced by Lia Kohl. And also tune in Matmos' 2023 track "Music or Noise?" "New Future City Radio" was created in “the programmatic format of a pirate radio station for the people” New Future City Radio combines Locks’ extensive work with samples, his powerful vocals, and Mazurek’s brass and synthesizer flourishes. The original work is an album, which imagines a radio played into a bright and far reaching future. This version of the piece is a live performance created specifically for radio broadcast.- Introduced by Wave Farm Radio Art Fellow 2023, Lia Kohl.

Welcome to "The Radio Art Hour," a show where art is not just on the radio, but is the radio. "The Radio Art Hour" draws from the Wave Farm Broadcast Radio Art Archive, an online resource that aims to identify, coalesce, and celebrate historical and contemporary international radio artworks made by artists around the world, created specifically for terrestrial AM/FM broadcast, whether it be via commercial, public, community, or independent transmission. Come on a journey with us as radio artists explore broadcast radio space through poetic resuscitations and playful celebrations/subversions of the complex relationship between senders and receivers in this hour of radio about radio as an art form. "The Radio Art Hour" features introductions from Philip Grant and Tom Roe, and from Wave Farm Radio Art Fellows Karen Werner, Jess Speer, Andy Stuhll, José Alejandro Rivera, Tyler Maxin, and Iru Ekpunobi. The Conet Project's recordings of numbers radio stations serve as interstitial sounds. Go to wavefarm.org for more information about "The Radio Art Hour" and Wave Farm's Radio Art Archive.
