Time is Away: Messengers from the invisible world

‘A faith of starlings A faith in the closeness of their mystery’

IN FOCUS: HERBIE HANCOCK

How haven't we done this one yet? Two hours of jazz, fusion and idiosyncratic pop from one of the 20th Century's most singular innovators, Herbie Hancock. Ever since the beginning of his career, Herbie Hancock has been triumphantly resistant to the contemporary dogmas of jazz, continually altering musical trends as he goes. During his tenure playing in bands with Donald Byrd and Miles Davis, Hancock was a foundational figure in the birth of post-bop jazz sound. He soon moved onto fusing jazz with funk, and fearlessly experimented with early electronic instruments, synthesizers and even samplers.

We team up with China Social Club once a month for some radio, live from Shanghai. Expect far ranging sets from local DJs and producers, sharing the sounds of the Shanghai underground club scene and more eccentric Chinese music from years past.
