The Show: Dead white men’s notes.

Another week and another music documentary to recommend.

“Sisters With Transistors” charts the (relatively) unheralded female pioneers of electronic music. From Clara Rockmore’s mastery and development of the theremin to the earsplitting drones of Maryanne Amacher, it’s the story of women who wanted to do more than “push around dead white men’s notes”.

It only seemed right and proper to include a couple of tunes from the soundtrack in today’s playlist, to wit: Laurie Spiegel and Space Lady.

All interspersed with excerpts from Chris Addison’s recent Bugle appearance.

And on with the show…

The Show: Boyle Correspondent.

And speaking of mysterious, corrupt cults, today’s show draws heavily from the soundtrack of Wild Wild Country, a Netflix documentary on the quite bizarre story of Bhagwan Raneesh’s attempts to build a utopian city in Oregon in the early 80’s.
