ID Music is North America’s Gnarliest Mix of Improvisational Meditation, Magnetic Tape Drone, and Vintage '80s Hardcore About Nothing
Our practice this week includes Milford Graves summoning proto-Boredoms meditation jams with "the heaviest Japanese horn players of the day," a crusty hybrid of improvisational jazz and death metal-adjacent hardcore, and early '80s poetry from Detroit about looking forward to nothing. In the latter half listen for crispy dubwise electronics from Finland and "string-heavy post-punk steppas" from the UK.
We begin and end with excerpts of "majestic grace" from Éliane Radigue's "very long tangle of frequencies." Language from Pema Chödrön on the "total appreciation of impermanence and change" appears throughout the broadcast.
