=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 12-30-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: Drifting in the winter atmosphere / chiming tones echo
   across the icy fjords / and the cello sings of the melancholy depths /
   in a land of life suspended.
   
   It's a sound and an image we return to from time to time.
   I'm Stephen Hill, and we're going to do it once again on this
   edition of Hearts of Space...called NORTHERN LIGHTS 3.

   PGM 752 : "VOX SUBLIMAE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : sublime voices and eternal spaces of sacred music
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 12-23-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: If music can be called sacred, then it must exalt the
   spirit, heal the psyche and focus the mind (to some degree) on
   the eternal. And it must do this while immersed in the heartache,
   joy and imperfection of the human panorama.
      Each year during the holiday season, something deep in the
   human spirit reaches out through all the chaos and compromise of
   our world, in search of images of a more perfect place. In the
   words of E.C. LE GUIN, "Since time out of mind, singing has been
   principal to the observation of this sacred and crucial time;
   it celebrates, exhorts, reflects; in it we can find an outlet
   or a retreat."
      On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a journey in the
   eternal spaces of sacred music called VOX SUBLIMAE (sublime voices).

   INTRO: Sometime after Thanksgiving, we enter that state of mind
   and culture known as the Christmas and Holiday Season. In music,
   more than any other time of year, we hark back to much-loved
   classics of sound, song and spirit. Carols, hymns, cantatas,
   oratorios, and good old sentimentality are all abundant. On this
   transmission of Hearts of Space, a journey for the season
   called CALM and BRIGHT.

   PGM 750 : "PHOS HILARON"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : a journey in contemplative sound and light
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 12-09-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: PHOS HILARON is the name of an ancient Greek hymn sung
   at the lighting of the evening candles; it means "joyful light"
   -- an act of devotion embedded in a daily ritual. Here in the
   northern hemisphere, the light of the sun is at its lowest at
   the winter solstice, so we illuminate the season with every
   kind of light. We gather in reverberant spaces and sing together.
   The sound of massed voices is an image of harmony and unity;
   echoing on itself, it builds an image of infinity.
      The history of devotional chant extends thousands of years
   before the Christian era. In the monasteries of medieval Europe,
   chant became a form of worship, a foundation of the daily ritual.
   Even in our chaotic, mostly secular times, across boundaries of
   culture and religion -- these venerable chants have the power
   to move us deeply.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : seeking the light, from darkness to hope
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 12-02-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: After the often painful and turbulent days of November,
   we seek relief from dark and gloomy emotions. We look forward
   to increasing light and hope: from opalescent, to translucent,
   to luminous -- harbingers of the season of light and celebration
   to come. On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, we echo that
   journey through the fragile, pellucid landscape of the psyche,
   on a program called TRANSLUCENT MUSIC.

   PGM NOTE : appreciating the feeling of gratitude
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 11-25-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: This week it's the Thanksgiving holiday -- the perfect time
   to explore the feeling of gratitude. The Taoist masters teach us
   that autumn is the time to reflect upon life. If we've enjoyed a
   good harvest or a successful year, we express our thanks. If the
   year's been difficult, then we're thankful for what we have and
   resolve to do better in the future. Yet the true appreciation of
   life doesn't require wealth or plenty, if we acknowledge the
   precious quality of everyday things. It requires only...GRATITUDE.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 11-18-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: The signature sound of the wirestrung harp, the signature
   lilt of a Celtic dance: a signal that joy, beauty, and wistful sadness -- 
   the panorama of human emotion -- will stretch our feelings. 
   
   As always the musicianship is extraordinary; there must be more musical 
   and vocal talent per square mile in the Celtic regions than almost anywhere. 
   It's a genre that's met and mastered the test of time, combining past and 
   present, tradition and creativity, and reinventing itself for every generation.

   On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, another journey in the Celtic
   soundscape called CELTIC TWILIGHT 3.

   PGM 747 : "NOVEMBER TONES"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : a cello-centric journey for autumn
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 11-11-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: In the multi-hued autumn twilight, the rich, coppery tones
   of the cello resonate naturally with the changing tones of the landscape. 
   Perhaps no western instrument has the musical and emotional range and 
   depth; from its foundational role in the orchestra and the string quartet, 
   to its uncanny vocal emulations and contemplative solo flights... 
   the cello seems to know no boundaries.
      On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a cello-centric journey with
   piano, strings, and a touch of electric guitar, on a program called 
   NOVEMBER TONES.

   FEED DATE : 11-04-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: A stormy night in Scorpio brings it's own little shop of
   horrors -- we're in the time when Celtic and Pagan tradition say
   the dark spirits are closer to earth. Can you prove otherwise?
   
   Appearances deceive...things are not what they seem...and we're
   obliged to measure our fears. On this transmission of Hearts of
   Space, we brave the storm...and quest into the dark forest
   on a program called SHAPESHIFTER.

   PGM 711R : "NETHERWORLD"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : a cathartic excursion for Scorpio
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 10-28-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: Terror -- a word we're hearing WAY too much of these days.
   It's terrible when real, but since the 1920s, when psychological
   terror made the leap from the novel to silent film, horror has
   been the genre of choice for vicarious fans of the macabre, the
   ominous, the morbid, the diabolical.
      These are the darkly poetic images associated with the often
   painful days of Scorpio. It's a taste that's both aesthetic and
   cathartic: a willful immersion in our ancient limbic emotions of
   danger and fear...and a defiant exercise of our impulse for
   self-preservation.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : darkening moods of the autumn soundscape
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 10-21-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: As the expansive energies of the globally warmed months
   recede (save for a parting hurricane or two...or three), we pass
   through a transition marked by tertiary colors: umber, sienna,
   ochre, purple, and deep green. The days grow short, the sun sinks
   lower in the sky, and the sound of the season cools, slows, and
   turns inward, embracing the dark ambient realm of mystery
   and melancholy.

   PGM 744 : "CEDAR SOUL"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : soft sounds and serene spaces of the native flute
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 10-07-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: The lonely, introspective sound of the cedar flute.
   For thousands of years, it's echoed across the Native American
   soundscape of the Southwest. These days you're as likely to hear
   the sound of slot machines as the native flute on Indian land --
   a sonic paradox that illustrates the challenge of preserving
   traditional ways in the modern world.

   Today, the native flute's been adopted by non-native musicians,
   drawn to its essential simplicity and soulful tonality. It's a sound
   we like to return to every autumn. On this transmission of
   Hearts of Space, a program called CEDAR SOUL.

   PGM 743 : "REMASTERPIECE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : classical masterworks gone ambient/electronic
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 9-30-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: It was funk music genius and former hair stylist
   GEORGE CLINTON who observed years ago that, in one respect,
   music was just like hair; when one style was getting hot,
   another one was getting cold. So if you wanted to be successful,
   you had to be able to adapt to the new styles.
      Something like that happened to classical music in the late
   1960's. Electronic musicians did restyled versions of great
   classical pieces to showcase their new sound on familiar material.
   The original and by far the most famous of these projects was
   WENDY CARLOS' "Switched-On Bach" which sold over 3 million albums
   and introduced several generations of listeners to the sound of
   synthesizers.
      The idea continues today. On this transmission of HEARTS of
   SPACE, a program of electronic transcriptions of classical
   masterworks called REMASTERPIECE.

PGM 742 "SHIBUI"

   PGM 742 : "SHIBUI"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : subtle spaces of the Japanese soundscape
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 9-23-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: The Japanese idea of beauty extends from brash and bold to
   the ideal of beauty, called shibui. Shibui means an understated
   kind of beauty, a quality that speaks quietly, for itself.
   Shibui objects have a refined, unobtrusive sophistication. They
   embody utility, maturity, complexity, history -- the patina that
   only time can bring: a deeply spiritual kind of elegance, rooted
   in the quiet appreciation of nature.
      Today, both Japanese and western musicians attracted by this
   aesthetic are creating fusions of traditional Japanese and
   contemporary ambient music.

   PGM 537R : "WEIGHTLESS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : an anti-gravity journey on floating electronic waves
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 9-16-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: ...Saw an item in the paper recently about the Russian
   space program. Seems they're so desperate for money to keep going,
   they're going to sell cosmonaut rides to anyone for $80,000
   a pop. The highlight of the experience is about two minutes of
   weightlessness in a special plane that climbs really high and
   then dives down in a huge arc. If you don't get sick, it's
   supposed to be big fun.
   
   On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE called "WEIGHTLESS,"
   we're going to bring you almost a whole hour of floating spacemusic
   pretty much for free, and it's guaranteed not to cause any motion
   sickness. In fact, it's a very pleasant sensation.

PGM 741 "SUMMERTRONICA 2"

(click title to play 30 second audio promo)

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : warm-blooded ambient for high summer
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 2-Sep-2005
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO : How to make sense of the now endless permutations of electronic sound? 
is the question. Styles and categories have multiplied, verging on 'distinctions 
without a difference.' A more intuitive set of descriptions might serve us better: 
warm to cold; dark to light; active to relaxed; dense to spacious. Hopefully, 
it won't be any more complicated than trying to describe a good cabernet. 

In the so-called "Celestial Jukebox" of the near future, perhaps you'll be able 
to order music from a menu of qualities: "Computer: play me something 
medium active, spatially expanded, with amber harmonies and timbres of 
mahogany and silver." 

Today, electronic musicians have the creative fun of choosing these qualities 
in the studio, as part of the craft of 'sound design'; we still get to have the 
fun of bringing their work together for you on these programs; and with 
some easy software, you can now do it yourself if you like. 

On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, a warm, spatially open, mildly 
mysterious ambient collection for high summer called SUMMERTRONICA 2.

The HOS Playlist blog

Starting this week, we will make the HOS weekly playlists available via a standard RSS feed. To make your information gathering more efficient, you will now be able to see the playlist using an RSS reader. If you're reading this, you probably know what I'm referring to. If not, check out one of the free, online RSS readers like Bloglines.

To encourage a little more interaction with our listeners and between our listeners, I have enabled comments. Please feel free to add your comments on each show.

We're also including our weekly 30 second promo for each show along with the playlist feed as an MP3 "podcast" enclosure. Just click the title of the show to play it. Sadly, we are still not able to offer the entire program via this very friendly technology due to copyright restrictions.

As on our web site, the highlighted links within the playlist take you to the Amazon.com page for that album. The audio samples there will help you to confirm that this is the album you are looking for.

Thanks for your interest in, and support of, the music we bring you on Hearts of Space!
