deXter Bentley peels himself off his clammy sun lounger to return to air with Hello GoodBye, midday every Saturday lunchtime from the 3rd September.
With live music stretching from the ominous, introverted alchemy of Benjamin Shaw, to the outer reaches of neo-psychedelic reverie with Trogons.
Trogons’ soaring vocals and chiming guitars recall the late ’80s psychedelia of Slowdive, The Cocteau Twins and This Mortal Coil. Both tuneful and droneful, the London-based four-piece are regulars on the capital’s live circuit and have notched up a number of prestigious slots. Today they make their Resonance live debut and, by rights, tomorrow they’ll be signed to 4AD!
Their forthcoming 7’’ single, ‘Awakenings’ will be released on X Ray Recordings.
Benjamin Shaw’s debut album, ‘There’s Always Hope, There’s Always Cabernet’ is due for release on November 21st on the Audio Anti-Hero imprint.. The album’s impenetrable Lo-Fi Megasoul will either propel him up into the stratosphere or deep down into the abyss. Either way, it’ll be great with dissonance and majesty smothering your principles.
If you’re not tuned in then you’re not listening!

Starting a month of shows about war comics, Alex Fitch talks to award winning writer Garth Ennis about his interest in the genre, from the backdrop of conflict in his debut strip Troubled Souls to his exploration of wars throughout the 20th Century and beyond in his series War Stories and Battlefields. Alex and Garth also discuss his past and forthcoming projects for Avatar, Dynamite and Marvel Comics and there are questions from the audience on the subjects of putting his stories into context for younger readers and the use of drones on the battlefield. This interview was recorded live at the Imperial War Museum, London as part of the ‘Comics and Conflicts Festival‘, August 2011.

Drum Soup Part 2: a melange of percussion, Steve Reich, Drumming; Milford Graves Percussion Ensemble with Sunny Morgan, Nothing 19,13 and Nothing (ESP 1965); Kip Hanrahan, Desire Develops an Edge; Bow Gamelan Ensemble, Great Noises that Fill the Air; Edward Ka-Spel, Alas my Shrunken Head; Israel Quellet, Oppressum and Soni Sclavus.
We learn, for example, about the lives of the threesome before their retirement. There is Bim, at the random grim forge, fettling for a great grey drayhorse his bright and battering sandal! And there is Bam, also at a random grim forge, also fettling. And Nat, too, at the next forge along the lane, and he too fettling, as the sun beats down on a rustic scene redolent of Lark Rise To Candleford. Pebblehead gives us so much detail about random grim forges and the fettling of bright and battering sandals for great grey drayhorses that the reader could, with confidence, given an anvil and a few tools, set up their own smithy’s.
