4.19.23: Entangled radio

Live Broadcast Canceled. Sorry folks!

What a week! Spring keeps sneaking up and darting off just when we get the nerve to go outside. Winter is losing her grip and pretty soon the hammocks will be out! To celebrate the new growth that spring is sure to bring, we’re doing something NEW!

Tonight, 5 – 7PM, we’ll be coming to you live from Fairhaven College! All you need to do is just LISTEN. Here are the stats:

Artists RYAN! Feddersen & T’uy’t’tanat-Cease Wyss
present and discuss their respective public,
participatory, and traditional practices that intervene in
settler-colonial spaces and memory within entangled
yet distinct territories, Nation-States, First Nations, and
communities of the Salish Sea.
Hosted by the Center for Canadian-American Studies,
Department of Art and Art History, and Fairhaven
College of Interdisciplinary Studies, on the traditional
and ancestral territories of the Nooksack Tribe and
Lummi Nation.

Wednesday April 19
5:00-7:00pm
Artist’s Panel
Fairhaven Auditorium FA 300

All fantastic artists and scholars. The discussion is sure to be dynamic and inspiring!

Until then, we’ll be broadcasting our usual mix of ambient and experimental tunes, mostly made by students of Western and students of the World.

Tuesdaze 4.11.23

Tuesday is for gratitude. When the week feels too long ahead, I need to check in with myself to let it all sink in. Though the skies are still grey, the earth is warming. Can you smell the soil? The blossoms? A double rainbow last night reminded those lucky to be outside that it pays to make yourself vulnerable to the natural elements. There we can be closer to our truer selves. Maybe.

Some new old tracks from Western students, Emma Toscani and Taylor Hall from way back in winter 22, Art 280, along with favorites by Aiko Enomoto and Gabe R., and more! Plus something great from the profound Hildegard Westerkamp, and some newer tunes from Madeline Cocolas. Just ethereal, dark and throbbing. Like spring in the PNW. How lucky we are to have this privilege to gather and listen. In gratitude, Sasha P.

Today is Monday, and how are we feeling? Like the weekend wasn’t long enough! So let’s ease into it with some slowed down tunes, another great ambient conversation track from artist Andrea Polli, a menagerie of sounds from Western sound artists, students of life I say! A spot from KNKX on our popular program Music for Animals, a few numbers from myself, Sasha P. in collaboration, as usual.

By the end of the playlist today, I hope you are tuned up and tuned in. Lots more to come!

Reception Songs: 4.6.23

Hi Friends,

76Cascades is a little something new made at workshop I lead back in March at Jack Straw Cultural Center in Seattle. I had the great pleasure of working with some talented folks ranging in age and ability. We sonified some data taken from tree rings across the Cascade Range. Our data set, or our song started around year 1776 and the numbers came up with a pretty spooky cool chord progression. The rest is just me jamming with folks, 5, 6, 14 and 16 years old! This is certainly just a rough mix. More to come including a new work made in collaboration with Whatcom Middle School Students. Listen for it!

Let’s Party!

A special playlist today, starting at 10AM we replayed Ambient Mondaze. You can find the tracks in post 4.3.23.

Starting at 4:45 we’ll be playing a special set of hand selected tracks. Please enjoy. Thanks for listening! Sasha

Happy little Saturday, or lillordag everyone!

To celebrate I’ve put together a forest inspired playlist today starting with a reading of Robin Wall Kimmerer’s poignant essay, Returning the Gift, read by me for my students. I get a bit choked up, as I often due, when touched by great art. After that we have a bunch of foresty soundscapes and sound poems by students, another wonderful work by Hildegard Westerkamp, some moody tunes from recent me, based on sonified data from tree rings, plus one by Gil de la Tourette, about a forest-less continent,  Antarctica, and I wrap it up with some tracks from my Lessons from the Forest series.

Stay tuned tomorrow for our opening reception, 5 – 7PM here in the Western Gallery where I’ll launch some fresh new tracks!

Happy Lillordag!

4.3.23

Hello and welcome to our first edition of Ambient Mondaze.

Why not? It’s hard getting out of bed after a luscious weekend isn’t it. So why not linger in the afterglow. It’ll be Wednesday before you know it! Today we start with 2 hour long tracks, one from the awesome Frameworks Radio! Do check them out. Each week they release a new episode featuring fantastic soundscapes, melodic field recordings and odd pings and zips for the ears to eat up as you wander through your daze. I’ve featured them on Sound.Out a lot. [frameworkradio.net]

Then another one from Sound.Outs own Chris Barrett, this one’s called Friday, because it’s Monday. Makes perfect sense if you think about it, but don’t think too hard. Then another track by the fantastic Hildegard Westerkamp, a atmospheric track by artist, scholar, engineer Andrea Poli, a track from my series lessons from the forest, and some experimental sounds from Western students to fill out the mix. I hope you like it. Let me know @sashpetrenko

Come to our opening reception this Thursday where we’ll be debuting 3 new tracks from Sound.Out productions. Till then, thanks for listening… Sasha
