CORTICEPS W/ MINUS KENDAL

Minus Kendal trods the outer reaches foraging for aural morsels, slinging you a monthly smorgasbord of sultry sonix from trenchcoat folk to silicone synthwave.

IN FOCUS: VELVET UNDERGROUND

There's an old Brian Eno quote that is inevitably referenced when talking about the Velvet Underground - something along the lines of "They only sold 30,000 copies of their first album, but everyone who bought the album started a band". It's slightly inaccurate (they sold a lot more copies), but the message is clear: few bands have had such an outsized, potent, and wide reaching effect on the musicians that followed in their footsteps. Their stubborn desire to continually approach songwriting from the left field, and continuous sonic reinvention reverberated for decades, influencing punk, post-punk, art rock, ambient music, even notably influencing real political revolution in Czechoslovakia. Two hours of The Velvets' best, selected and mixed by Claire Rousay.

Kenny Graham And His Satellites

Kenny Graham And His Satellites

Kenny Graham And His Satellites has been played on NTS shows including NTS Guide to…, with Lullaby first played on 1 December 2016.

Mind-melting record from British jazzer Kenny Graham and sixteen sound-lullabies crafted in honour of iconic New York street musician Moondog. First released in 1957 this hypnotic, exotic work features a roll-call of premier London talent, Stan Tracey, Phil Seaman, Ivor Slaney and a young Joe Meek manning the reverb-units. Two sides, one of Moondog covers (Moondog Suite) and Graham’s own complimentary compositions (Suncat Suite) that kiss the flip.
