Join WXYC for a Thursday Night Feature that explores the experimental and outré acoustics of Oceania. While AC/DC and Lorde might be the region's most recognizable exports, there exists a long musical tradition of exploratory and unconventional musics beginning with Jack Ellitt's sound collages in the 1930s to today's incredibly diverse milieu, hosting everything from free improvisation to Outback field recordings to coruscating noise to buoyant ambient and all points between. While touching on some of the more well-known musicians (Lawrence English, Oren Ambarchi, members of the Necks and Dead C), we also take a closer look at some of the under-heralded members of the region's musical communities (Shoshana Rosenberg, Yeongrak, Thembi Sodell), as well as attempt to trace the heterogeneous and surprising lineage of experimental music in Oceania. Hosted by Matt L.
