Produced by Clocktower Radio.

Between takes from the performance at Pioneer Works in October 2015, the singer, songwriter, poet, and visionary Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle) and Edley O’Dowd, her collaborator, drummer, designer, and producer discuss the reincarnation of the psychedelic band Psychic TV and reveal the passion, precision, and philosophy behind it. Clocktower Radio station manager Jake Nussbaum hosts.

"Experimental Composers" is produced by Clocktower Radio and broadcast in partnership with Wave Farm's WGXC 90.7-FM. Writes Clocktower Radio, "Performances from new and established musical innovators. The unfortunate and unintended messages that come attached to a title like Experimental Composers are many. Still it is one of the few labels to come out of the world of music that has not been co-opted by promoters, corporations, journalists, or lawyers. This one just seems to have anti-market goo on it. Hooray. It's also just bad English (as if to imply that these poor souls are themselves, in their flesh and blood, some kind of experiment and, perhaps, even expendable). And then there is the spectre of defying the wisdom of the great Edgar Varèse who said something like, 'I do not write experimental music. My experimenting is done before I make the music. Afterwards it is the listener who must experiment."
