Created by Sam Sebren.

For this program, NIRRH creator and host Sam Sebren looks back to the noise and no genre scene of the 1990’s, of which he played a part as front man and songwriter for NYC no genre band, Splotch, from 1993 - 1999. Sebren will be curating a selection of sounds by bands and colleagues from that scene including Monotrona, Temple of Bon Matin, Alva, Bunny Brains, Bobby Conn, TLASILA, The Yips, Icky Boyfriends, Gerty Ferrish, Thee Hydrogen Terrors, Harry Pussy, Jason Willett, Hercules, Flying Luttenbachers, Leslie Q, Frosty, Splotch, and more.

The Nothing Is Real Radio Hour broadcasts on WGXC 90.7-FM from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on the fifth Saturday (of months with 5 Saturdays) and also from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m on the fifth Friday, as part of Wave Farm's Transmission Arts and Experimental Sound programming. The Nothing Is Real Radio Hour includes sound and transmission arts works by Sebren, and occasionally works by other artists, both pre-recorded and performed live in the studio.

In a multidisciplinary practice, much of Sebren's recent work has challenged notions of accepted reality in art, advertising, and public spaces. In mediums including sound, Sebren's work blurs actual, imagined, and technological realities as he critiques socio-political rules & regulations in our consumer "culture" and urges his audience to smile and re-think our priorities
