'Somewhere along the line Coltrane’s soprano sax runs out of steam. Now it’s McCoy Tyner’s piano solo I hear, the left hand carving out a repetitious rhythm and the right layering on thick, forbidding chords. Like some mythic scene, the music portrays somebody’s - a nameless, faceless somebody’s - dim past, all the details laid out as clearly as entrails being dragged out of the darkness. Or at least that’s how it sounds to me. The patient, repeating music ever so slowly breaks apart the real, rearranging the pieces. It has a hypnotic, menacing smell, just like the forest' - Kafka On The Shore Music, and specifically jazz, has always featured heavily in the literary imagination of Haruki Murakami. In this radio special, NTS lays down two hours of jazz records as featured throughout Murakami's corpus.

DJ, artist and techno impresario, Word of Command welds fevered collage and high-octane techno into a hallucinatory dreamscape. He is the founder of FIST (@funisstilltransgressive), a queer techno party that pays tribute to radical fun, while engaging the visibility of communities of otherness through techno in NYC.

ARCHIVE SHOW

This show is a love letter for a friend far away, but also a love letter for my Sundays. It is for the sad ones, the lazy ones, the inspired ones and the lovely frustrated ones. I will be broadcasting from the piano behind the curtain on the empty theatre stage in the basement of the local cinema inside my mind.
