Live and Indirect Sessions@liveandindirect.bsky.social · 10mo ago

Still waiting for a new home for the Live and indirect Sessions to come to pass; 2026 is the new expectation for the radio station revival and rebirth to happen, apparently.

For @bandcamp.com, I wrote about Cluster (and Kluster and Harmonia and Brian Eno). daily.bandcamp.com/lists/cluste...

We’d play everything there, from Can to Mouse on Mars to Autechre – it was very adventurous, but not kind of chin-stroke. It was still very hedonistic."
