Hello GoodBye Show 5 November 2011: No Cars and Renu
Today on Hello GoodBye we open our doors to Renu and No Cars.
Multi-instrumentalist, percussionist, songwriter & composer Renu recently self-released her debut LP ‘Love from London’ to critical acclaim. The album was recorded over a two year period in London, Paris, Warsaw & Toronto and features a host of collaborators, including Seb Rochford (Polar Bear / Acoustic Ladyland) and Anna Tabbush (Tabbush English Folk Family.) The influence of Gainsbourg, Drake & Morricone can all be heard in the cinematic scope of Renu’s music, all swept along with the atmospheric combination of viola and theramin.
No Cars are an all-girl Japanese trio who first met and formed in London. They have declared themselves the new ‘Queens of Cute‘ and perform delightful Bubblegum-Pop ditties about bananas, octopuses and Sellotape.

OST 25.06.11 – Dominic Glynn
In this slightly shortened OST Show today we have special guest Dominic Glynn, not just any old TV and film music composer but a contemporary talent who has indeed created stunning music for Dr Who. Be prepared to spend much of Saturday’s show quivering behind the sofa.
OST is a weekly programme is dedicated to film music, TV music, library music and related recordings, and is hosted by Jonny Trunk. Each week The OST Show welcomes a guest (a collector, composer, director, artist) or specialises in a specific film music genre or composer. Expect lively chat, competitions and anything from avant garde Morricone to Rock Hudson singing.
OST 09.11.2011 – KPM Jazz Special
Film, library and television music with Jonny Trunk. Today the OST has an unexpected airing of all three exceptionally rare Clark-Boland Big Band LPs made for KPM. The internationally famous poll winning band included the cream of European and American musicians, but quite why and how they made three LPs for the London based library label is anyones guess. So, Jazz Convention I, II and III, possibly the rarest set of all British library LPs get a full hearing today. Hurrah!

Panel Borders: Hemlock and Skullkickers – Gendering Fantasy
Starting a month of shows about genre in comic books, Alex Fitch talks to the writers of two very different fantasy comics which show the wide range of approaches to the genre. At a signing in Orbital Comics, recorded in February, Alex talks to Jim Zubkavich about his popular Image Comics title Skullkickers, his web strip Makeshift Miracle and his work on Udon Studios’ Street Fighter comic, then in an interview recorded at last weekend’s MCM Expo, Joceline Fenton discusses her small press comic Hemlock. Both creators discuss the appearance of their comics online, the importance of well designed packaging for the collected editions and their other projects.

Art Monthly 14th October 2011
In this programme writer Laura McLean-Ferris and writer,musician and curator Morgan Quaintance discuss Laura’s feature from the October issue 351 of Art Monthly.
Dissolution– on the internet, sculpture and the body in pieces. A new generation of artists is tackling an age-old modernist subject with a post-internet mindset, asking not what we might fear from future bodily dissolution but how we should celebrate its existing effects.
‘Dissolution has been heralded, positively and negatively, incessantly over history. Over the past few years, however, a skewed sense of pace has developed: did we miss it actually happening?’
They also discuss Morgan’s review of Digital and Other Virtualities: Renegotiating the Image a book edited by Griselda Pollock and Anthony Bryant which finds virtual reality reinvigorated by new texts. ‘Cyberspace, the once maddeningly ubiquitous neologism coined in William Gibson’s 1984 novel Neuromancer, has, since its heyday in the early 1990s, been relegated to the bargin bin of passé cultural terminology, along with its sibling virtual reality.’
The programme is hosted by Matt Hale who has worked at Art Monthly since 1991.
