DJing Deep

As of tonight, I'm joining the roster of DJs for Radio Active's Deep show. I'll be co-hosting tonight's show with John Heighes, and then on my own for the 23rd of August.

Seeing out the rest of the year, I'll be on air for Deep on 4th October, 15th November, and 27th December.

The Deep show plays every tuesday night from 11pm-1am. Motto: "the sound of sound". It streams from Active's website, and if you're in Wellington NZ you can pick it up on 88.6 FM.

Heres a link to the Deep blog, which has playlists, and access to podcasts (though those may not be working at the moment...). If you aren't already listening, it'll give you an idea of what the show is all about.

It ain't about the kind of music I write, but it is about all kinds of music I like. These are some of the labels I've seen used for things that I'd play on Deep: ambient, electronic, glitch, drone, post-rock, acoustic, electro-acoustic, experimental, field recordings, musique concrète, non-music, noise... I might not use those labels myself... some of them are positively misleading...
