PGM 764 : "DEEP GROOVE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : downtempo, chill and ambient electronica
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 4-28-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO: We didn't plan it that way, but this show wound up
almost all English music. And why not? England remains a breeding
ground and innovator for all kinds of new genres. This time, a report
from the intersection of downtempo, chill, and deep ambient --
a place where digital beats and lyrical melodies float...
over ambient soundscapes.
English musician and producer BRIAN ENO, who more or less
invented the term "ambient," once observed that certain kinds of
electronic music could be heard as "fast music with slow
underpinnings...or slow music, with fast ornamentation."
However YOU hear it, on this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE,
it's a downtempo journey called DEEP GROOVE: 'groove' because
it moves with a hypnotic rhythm; 'deep' because it takes you
somewhere worth going.

FEED DATE : 4-21-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO: After a long, rainy winter, with the coming of spring
one's thoughts turn to nature. That was the case with the
famous Greek film composer and musician VANGELIS back in 1984,
when he released an album of earth-inspired music called
SOIL FESTIVITIES. On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE,
we're going to celebrate the end of another long winter with
an environmental electronic journey for spring called
AFTER THE RAIN.

PGM NOTE : a sacred choral collection for Easter
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 4-14-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO: Every year at Easter, we take the opportunity to catch up
on the finest sounds in sacred choral music. There's something
mysterious and majestic in the sound of voices in harmony. As
often in the past, we turned to guest producer ELLEN HOLMES of
Adagio Recordings, who brought us a bouquet of sublime pieces
from the repertoire.
On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, our common theme is
QUIET PRAYERS. Not only Easter sacred music -- but sacred music
that sounds _right_ on Easter. It comes from many countries and
spans several centuries: from medieval hymns to 21st century
art songs.

PGM 762 : "INSIDE LOOKING OUT"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a MARK HOLLIS retrospective
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 4-07-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO: The story of English singer/songwriter MARK HOLLIS is an
inspiration to serious musicians and listeners everywhere -- a
lesson in 'following the muse' to a place of true creativity.
Born in London in 1955, Hollis came of age in the 1970s and
embarked on the mythic road to fame and fortune by starting a
rock band. After a few false starts it worked, and the group
TALK TALK began a short, brilliant pop music career that included
several gold records in England and Europe in the 1980s.
But Mark Hollis' artistic yearnings pulled him off the beaten
track and into a subtle, moving and deeply contemplative space
-- influenced by jazz, blues, ambient and chamber music, yet
sounding unlike anyone else, before or since.
The two final TALK TALK albums, SPIRIT OF EDEN from 1988 and
LAUGHING STOCK from 1991, plus a 1998 solo album titled simply
MARK HOLLIS, are all quiet masterpieces and timeless works of art,
graced by profoundly poetic lyrics and vocals from powerfully
emotional...to evanescent.
