August 24th Playlist....Haubenstock-Ramati
Much apologies for the two week lapse there, but I'm back and tonight showcasing the fantastic work of Roman Haubenstock-Ramati. If you don't know his work, you must make the effort to become familiar with it, it's well worth it. Often considered the 'other' Earle Brown, H-Ramati created some of the most beautiful looking and sounding graphic and mobile scores ever. Tonight we listen to as many as we can!

June 15th, The Fog with Pete Hartley
Today we have a special treat with Pete Hartley as our guest curator/DJ, an exile from as he calls it, the center of the Universe (otherwise known as Brighton). Having known Pete for some time now I've realized he has an amazing collection of music on just about every form of media I've ever heard of. So I've asked him to guest curate our program tonight and he's brought in a wonderfully eclectic selection. Hope you enjoyed it...and he even provided a very detailed playlist (yay!...er, don't expect this from me :)
Catch you next week with our final installment of string quartets featuring Brent Fariss and Travis Weller from Austin.

And we're back-again, and this week we return to string quartets. I haven't been able to make it through everything I wanted to but I'm going to give it this week and we will probably return after a break to explore some other material. I'd like to explore some Habenstock-Ramati, Cage, Brown, Wolf, Feldman, Wolpe, Young, and others in a future show, so stay tuned for that.
Tonight though, will be slightly more up to date pieces. Starting of with Amazing Grace arranged by Ben Johnston, and then a return to the concert give by the Imbroglio String Quartet featuring the works of Thomfaricraw (myself and two other Austin based composers, Brent Fariss, and Clark Crawford), followed by a piece for computer and string quartet by Claire M Singer. And much more. Hope you enjoy, and stay tuned for some interesting shows over the next few weeks as I have some guest curators bringing in their own selections!

May 25th, Playlist, Ameriocan String Quartets
Tonight we're exploring more string quartets, but specifically American String quartets, and string quartets from America that treat each voice or instrument within the quartet as a unique entity...
And so to begin, just as an appetizer, we played
Charles Ives, Scherzo for String Quartet, Arditti USA Quartets
and then dove into our theme with these little ditties:
Charles Ives, String Quartet No 2. Ives: the Two String Quartets by The Julliard Quartet (Columbia)
Ruth Crawford Seeger, String Quartet 1931, Ruth Crawford Seeger Portrait, (Deutsche Grammophon)
Elliot Carter, String Quartet No. 2, Elliott Carter: The Four String Quartets, The Julliard Quartet
John Cage, Music for Four, The Arditti String Quartet: John Cage, The Complete String Quartets

May 18 Playlist: String Quartets
Tonight's program, and probably for those for the next few weeks, will be all about String Quartets. Early on in my composing career, I went through a massive string quartet fetish phase where I sought out every string quartet that I could find that was worth listening to. I listened to Beethoven's, Bartok's, Shostakovitch's, Schoenberg's, Webern's, Bergs (Lyric Suite anyway), then came across the New York School's work (OK, that's a bit of a lie as I actually started with them and worked backwards and sideways, but more on that later)....of course I discovered Scelsi, Xenakis, Penderecki, Estrada, Pape, Saariaho, and others too. Oh, and let's not forget Ives, Cowell, Carter, Crawford-Seeger, and all the other Yanks as well!
So, we will be listening to many (not all, just not that many weeks in a year I'm afraid) of these over the next few weeks. If you're into string quartets, May and June are your months on the Fog!
1. John Zorn, Forbidden Fruit, on Kronos: Winter Was Hard.
2. Earle Brown, String Quartet No. 1., on Earle Brown DVD: Chamber Works
3. Kaija Saariaho, Nymphea: Jardin Sectret III, on Arditti String Quartet from Scandinavia
4. Bill Thompson, String Quartet No. 1., played by Imbroglio String Quartet, Unreleased
5. Live At Axiom 2002, Track4, String Trio (James Alexander, Brent Fariss, Travis Weller), Unreleased
6. Gerard Pape, Le Fleuve du desir 1994, Ardititi String Quartet, on Electroacoustic Chamber Works
7. Julio Estrada, , on Arditti String Quartet Edition No 27-Julio Estrada
8. Live At Axiom 2002, Track4, String Trio (James Alexander, Brent Fariss, Travis Weller), Unreleased

Hi everyone,
Tonight's program will focus loosely on phonography and composition. For those of you unfamiliar with phonography, there's a good site and a great yahoo group you should check out here: http://www.phonography.org/ and http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/phonography/
There are also a few sites (actually many) where you can listen to some phonography, but one particularly interesting one is soundtransit where you can actually plan a journey across the world via field recordings: http://soundtransit.nl/book/about.html
I also hosted phonography concert when I first moved to Aberdeen and most of the concert can be listened to on my site here: http://www.billthompson.org/phonography.htm
And finally, a home-grown hybrid, Aberdeen's own Pete Stollery has an interesting site where he recorded his favourite sounds around the Aberdeenshire area and put them on an online map you can visit and listen to here: http://www.petestollery.com/ (click on the link for Gordon Soundscape)

And we're back...
Actually, in a way we've just arrived, as a blog anyway.
The Fog has been going strong on ShmuFM (Aberdeen's first and only full time community radio station) since October 2007, but it's taken me this long to set up this simple blog. Shameful I know, but it's done at last and now we can get on with the program.
If you haven't checked out the program, The Fog is a two hour weekly radio show dedicated to experimental music that airs on Sunday nights from 10pm to midnight (UK time) on 99.8FM. Not in Aberdeen? No problem, you can also catch the show via webcast here: www.shmu.org.uk/shmufm.m3u
It's presented by myself, Bill Thompson (I often play under the name Professor Lofi) and you can check out more about me on my site: www.billthompson.org. The show also regularly features visiting and local guests.
So, check here for playlists after each program (I rarely know in advance what will be played) and feel free to post your comments, positive or constructive, or any requests and I'll do my best to get back to you.
I'll also do my best to post links to 'listen agains' for each week as my schedule allows. Please be patient as this is a bit time consuming, but I'll do my best.
So there you have it, a blog for the Fog. Thanks for tuning in, and I'll catch this Sunday,
Bill
