Slow Hand Clutches: Murmuration

FM: We think a lot about murmur, what Du Bois calls “the murmur of ages,” and we think about murmuration, that amazing shift of social formation that birds do in the air. SS: Like over Brighton pier. FM: “Murmuration” is a cool word because it bears the trace of the sound. It’s beautiful when you watch those movements, but it’s even more beautiful when you hear them. The internal differentiation of the swarm is absolute wealth. Extract from Refusing Completion: A Conversation Fred Moten, Stefano Harney, and Stevphen Shukaitis

Crustation

Crustation

Crustation has been played on NTS over 30 times, featured on 35 episodes and was first played on 7 January 2014.

The trio of producers known as Crustation formed by Ian Dark, Stig Manley and Mark Taylerthe are quite connected in the fertile Bristol trip-hop community -- they played in bands with Portishead's Adrian Utley during the 1980s, and regularly hung out with Massive Attack and Smith & Mighty. They debuted in 1994 with two EPs for Cup of Tea Records (also the home of Monk & Canatella, Statik Sound System and Purple Penguin), and released their debut album Bloom in 1998.
