The Passion
Everyone has something that they're passionate about, what's your guilty pleasure? It's not necessarily alternative music, it just probably wasn't on Radio 1's top ten last week. Be it Goth, heavy metal, ska, punk, movie soundtracks, something classical or perhaps even more diverse, (something really bizarre like… mainstream indie?); I intend to wipe the dust of some real gems that the uninformed may have missed. And remind them of the obvious ones they may have forgotten.

Fishtail: tales of sounds and words

A series of four specials exploring the relationship between sounds and words and other forms of art. Each week, we will be discussing the connections between different pieces of work with a series of special guests. We'll be featuring great and innovative music, writing and art written by our favourite established artists and york students.

The idea of fishtail comes from Ouroboros, which is the image of a fish or reptile biting its own tail. It signifies something that is constantly recreating itself, something that pre-existed and is so powerful that it must continue. Of course, it also comes from the notion of a fisherman's tale. In our programme, we're going to be 'biting our tales' and circulating from one art form to the next.


Project Shiftshade

The strange show of secret stories continues with it's new title and new lease of life. Once the strange show of serendipity now confirmed the project. But who is running it? What's the end goal? What is actually happening? Questions whose answers we may never know. We'll just have to see and have to keep listening. Listening to the show by the humbled presenter Simon Asaert.
