Hello GoodBye 12 January 2012: Paul Hawkins & Thee Awkward Silences and Black Spot

Our first show of 2012 kicks off with live music from Paul Hawkins & Thee Awkward Silences and Black Spot.

We will also be re-airing a selection of our favourite pieces of music recorded live here on Hello GoodBye throughout 2011.

Paul Hawkins & The Awkward Silences formed in 2006 as a collaboration between maverick singer-songwriter Hawkins and Death in Vegas guitarist turned producer Ian Button and have gradually expanded into a six-piece. The band have released two albums and numerous singles and have built up a loyal cult following, with fans as far afield as Holland, France, Belgium and America. Their last EP ‘The Wrong Life‘ (Audio Antihero) was released in July 2011 and their new album will be released later this year.

Black Spot is the new solo moniker of ex-Congregation guitar player and singer with The Tap Collective, Benjamin Prosser. Black Spot acts as a place where the territory Benjamin’s early solo work (released on Sexton Ming’s Rim Records) left off. Though still demoing onto tape recorders and dictaphone’s Benjamin has now upped the analogue stakes recording the final versions of his new material at Gizzard Studio in the east-end. Combining an intricate finger picked intimacy with instrumentation including rythmn generator, Oscillator and found sounds Benjamin’s latest work is in his own words “the closest I’ve ever come to truly valuing, giving credence to what I do most naturally, to really speaking, saying what I believe is worth saying.”

Gerhard Richter: Panorama at Tate Modern

John Douglas Millar discusses his review of Gerhard Richter: Panorama at Tate Modern .

“The show is vast; there is the work that spars with Marcel Duchamp, the landscapes that investigate German Romanticism, September, 2005, his mournful and considered reaction to the attacks on the World Trade Center, the tender but always questioning domestic portraits of his wife and children. I cannot discuss them all here. In the end, the satisfaction of this show comes from the sense that you are constantly in the presence of an intelligence that is both effervescent and probing. A painterly mind that is able, fascinatingly, to think against itself”.

The programme is hosted by Matt Hale who has worked at Art Monthly since 1991.

Wavelength – Musics in the Margins

Musik Oblik; latest addition to the musics in the margins series by sub rosa. Anthology of outsider music with tracks by Adolf Wolfli, Carlo Gesualdo, Othin Spake, Klaus Beyer, Normand L’Amour, Jacques Brodier, Baudouin de Jaer, Baudouin Oosterlynck and the Wild Classical Music Ensemble.

The Art of Improvisation

Cousins Adib (UK) and Mehdi Rostami (Iran) take the closeness of their family ties into the realm of improvisation, where trust and understanding between musicians is paramount to success. Prior to a London performance we talk to them in the studio about the preparatory process for an improvising musician, the instruments they play – the relatively new shurangiz -  and their ambitions for the future of their duo, split as they are between Iran and UK.

We sample some of their sublime music in the show, but nothing can compare to a live performance where the players literally take you on the ‘journey’ with them. Buy the CD here.

Clear Spot: The Pirates of Carthage

A play by UK based artist Daniel Kelly about the Arab Spring in Tunisia, as the story unravelled on Twitter. It is composed of Twitter messages from the weeks up to the deposition of President Ben Ali, which occurred a year ago this Saturday. The play reflects a personal discovery of the story of the revolution as it happened and our fragmented, chaotic understanding of the world through the Internet.

The Twitter messages are juxtaposed with text from Gustave Flaubert’s 1862 novel Salammbo, the epic story of the Mercenary War in Ancient Carthage.

After the play, in the last 20 minutes of the show, we added to the text live on air, with Twitter messages from listeners using the hashtag #pCarthage. Podcast listeners can still Tweet to us using the hashtag!

Written by Daniel Kelly and performed by Aimee Parkes, Helen Marshall, Paul Williams and Pedd Ramm.

Directed by Ben Kidd and produced by Lucy Knight.

The Clear Spot for Resonance FM was produced and presented by Michael Garrad.
