French pianist and teacher Marie Pleyel was born (or July 4?) #OTD in 1811.

She was engaged to Hector Berlioz in 1830, but after three months, while Berlioz was in Italy, she broke the engagement to marry Camille Pleyel. After their separation in 1835, her concert career flourished. She was appointed a professor of piano at the Brussels Conservatory in 1848, where she taught until her retirement in 1872.

For those lucky to have the means to buy gifts this holiday season, #MindfulSpending is power.

Do we really need more stuff this year, or should we spend on causes that need support?

We don’t stop billionaires by pouring more money into their pockets. Collectively, we can shift the holiday spend to small businesses, small presses, indie #art #music #poetry #writing, etc.

Imagine that.

#Christmas #Hanukkah #GiftIdeas

Thousands of rare American songs spanning jazz, blues and gospel — some more than a century old — are now available for the public to enjoy online.

That’s thanks to a collaboration between UC Santa Barbara and the nonprofit Dust-to-Digital Foundation , which digitized the recordings from rare and aging music collections.

Right now you may be like "what a calm and peaceful timeline this is"… but NO, BANG! here comes another one of those lengthy and disruptive…

RADiO IRRTUM!

…announcements. And I'm not even sorry — damn me!

↓↓↓ German version far below the English one ↓↓↓

Yes, yes, #RadioIrrtum! is knocking at your radio frame, specifically at Saturday, 2024-08-31 at 8:00PM (UTC+2) at Alex Berlin/FM 91 MHz/DAB+ Ch.7D, or via stream: https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio/15-live-auf-91.0

Why? What?! #Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastnesses of the #underground. But wait… in German?! Well - forget about that German language aspect - it's all about the music!

»But it's exactly at the time when me and my family are peeling potatoes for dinner!« you say? Perfect! Because this time we are dealing with

Peel Sessions

only. If you really have no idea about Peel sessions — it will be explained ;).
Anyhow; that means we have a special with the following acts:

- Foyer des Arts
- Tarwater
- The Future Sound of London
- The Human League
- Einstürzende Neubauten
- Malaria
- Chicks on Speed
- PIL
- Bauhaus
- The Fall
- Broadcast
- Nico

That's 50% of German acts — hope that won't spoil the phun too much ;) - and we'll cover no less than 32 years of #PeelSessions.

And there are 2 apologies: I will mention Mania D at one point but I will pronounce their name completely wrong because all the years I was reading & therefore saying "Manina D". Realized it far too late, the show is uploaded already… nothing I can do now. I feel ashamed!
Also 1 hour is by faaaar too short for this topic, I had to cut down too much for this show; don't recommend anyone trying that. 2 hours should be minimum by law when covering this topic. Yes, I'm a criminal.

I'll post playlist + manuscript later here (provided I’m home, else it will come up the day after). And if you have questions? I'll gladly answer! Just ask!

CU all on Saturday! :)


↑↑↑ English version above, the German one is still below ↓↓↓

Oh nein, da kommt es, das Zeychenlimit, daher nur ganz kurz auf deutsch:

Radio Irrtum! kommt. Diesen Samstag, 20 Uhr über Alex Berlin auf UKW 91MHz/DAB+ K.7D (Stream URL oben).

Da ist keine Zeit mehr fürs Kartoffelschälen, denn diesmal gibz echte Peel Sessions (Special!) — nämlich mit:

- Foyer des Arts
- Tarwater
- The Future Sound of London
- The Human League
- Einstürzende Neubauten
- Malaria
- Chicks on Speed
- PIL
- Bauhaus
- The Fall
- Broadcast
- Nico

50% Anteil Produktionen aus hiesigen Landen, 32 Jahre Peel werden umfasst. Außerdem spreche ich "Mania D" komplett falsch aus (sorry!) und hätte niemals versuchen sollen, "alles über Peel Sessions" in 1h zu quetschen. Hab ich aber. Schlecht.

Playlist + Manuskript nach der Show (spätestens Sonntag) hier drunter. Fragen einfach stellen – ich antworte (spätestens am Sonntag)!

Bis zur Sendung… vielleicht?

German music historian and critic Friedrich Chrysander died #OTD in 1901.

His most significant achievement was the publication of the "Händel-Gesellschaft" edition, a monumental 105-volume collection of Handel’s complete works. He was one of the founders of the Vierteljahrsschrift für Musikwissenschaft, one of the first scholarly journals devoted to the study of music history and theory.

The last link is up on my website too, plus some other tape weirdities from way back. https://robertafidora.com/news/blog/7100253/rewinding-cassettes-a-tape-miscellany #Cassette #Cassettes #Tape #Tapes #Retro #Music #Histodons #MusicHistory #Musodon

"Misticismo em ciência
Terrorismo biológico em ação
Influência lobista
Sabotagem, conspiração

Proliferação de monstros genéticos
Aniquilação da economia rural
Domínio ecológico
Dos mercadores da morte
Contaminação em escala global

Conquista transgênica
Eficiente epidemia mortal
Ecologia em chamas
Devastação da cultura local

Glorificação de cientistas macabros
Biodiversidade do lucro insano
Multinacionais e suas sementes de sangue
Na América Latina
E seus campos de horror

Incontrolável
Devastação
Semestes de sangue
Em proliferação

Lucro insano
Manipulação
Campos da morte
Em proliferação"

It maybe an unpleasant November out there - but what about some warm coziness from the inside?

I know something that may spark all that:

RADIO IRRTUM!
(on air from Berlin)

↓↓↓ Deutsch Version below unten ↓↓↓

Da next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will air this Saturday, 2025/11/22, 8:00pm UTC+1, Berlin time. At Alex Berlin FM at 91MHz / DAB+ K7D around #Berlin + worldwide at https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

Wuzit then?

#Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music all over this planet's genre spectrum. Don't worry about that #GermanLanguage - it's all about the #music!
A lot of it - this time with a bit of focus on Spoken Words!

Covering stuff like

- lightweight musical poems
- voice heavy #organPoint Pop
- dreamy Bulgarian #Triphop
- a #Fediverse dream cooperation of #Bonkwave artists doing classic #DnB
- playful #indietronic
- #140 #Bass full of dancy-pancy energy
- #IBM (the term Radio-Irrtum! uses for Intellectual Bass Music) including Spoken Words
- Experimental #SpokenWords
- less #experimental SpokenWords
- dark Riot Grrrl #Postpunk
- dreamy #Downtempo #Lofi for making you smile

Lots of #CreativeCommons music is included and there are super cool artists from the Fediverse. Like @axwax + @ahihi + @animaexanimata + @poemproducer . Lots of strong women in music too. Lots wont be found on Spotify while it's all here!

Also (mostly for the German listeners I'm afraid) I will explain the organ point composition technique which is featured even in modern music (and without an organ if you are lucky).
And I will merge Johann Sebastian Bach's name into "Johannes Bach" by misstake at one point. I honestly know better! I can say this because the show is preproduced (and still I didn't catch this before uploading it to the radio station; this is bad!).

Anyway: If at least a bit interested in kewl new unusual #music, tune in! 📻

Got questions? I'll gladly answer! Just ask here!
Playlist + manuscript after the show also here.
CU all (?) on Saturday.


↑↑↑ English version above, the Deutsche welche jetzt ↓↓↓

Diesmal mit einem gewissen Fokus auf Spoken Words.
Und dabei so Sachen wie…

- ↑↑↑ naja - steht ja alles oben! ↑↑↑

Vieles davon gibz nich auf Spotify, dafür gibz viel Creative Commons; & wir hamn massig Fediverse Künstler:innen vertreten (s.o.).
Ich erkläre, was der Orgelpunkt ist und sage "Johann Sebastian Bach" falsch.

Wird schön! Playlist + Manuskript nach der Sendung hier drunter. Fragen einfach hier stellen – ich antworte.

May you feel and share feelings of peace and acceptance this Christmas season! In this short post I sing you a poorly engineered but well-intentioned Christmas carol, and share an Aussie nativity picture to download and colour.

Just a reminder that "Mover" came out recently and you can listen to it across a variety of different places on/from my website, particularly if you like reversed choirs and sad synths.

It's also accompanied by a weird video where I appear as a tin of delicious hair and a toilet roll.

Socool - Blow Out ✨
Available now, everywhere!

https://socool.bandcamp.com/album/blow-out

We celebrate the last days of summer with this wonderful cover version of Radiohead’s “Blow Out” by Emily Sobool aka Socool who turns it into a modern, meandering ambient ballad.

@socool's take on Blow Out turns the song into a beautifully evocative exploration through a nocturnal ambient soundscape with piano chords carrying her whispery voice like a glow in the darkness.

Finnish violinist and composer Jean Sibelius died #OTD in 1957.

The core of his oeuvre is his set of seven symphonies, which, like his other major works, are regularly performed and recorded in Finland and countries around the world. His other best-known compositions are Finlandia, the Karelia Suite, Valse triste, the Violin Concerto, the choral symphony Kullervo, and The Swan of Tuonela (from the Lemminkäinen Suite).
