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.

PGM NOTE : an environmental electronic journey for spring

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 763 : "QUIET PRAYERS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
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.

INTRO: Waiting out the seemingly endless period between winter
and spring can be a challenge. While our psyches are reaching
for release from the constricting grip of winter, our rational
minds must practice patience and equanimity. Ambient music can
help us expand and float across this transition on electronic
waves. On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, an intra-
seasonal electronic journey called INVERSION.

PGM NOTE : floating in the space between winter and spring
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-24-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The long and inexorable road to spring sometimes requires
an extra measure of patience. In California, the first blossoms
appear early, bringing a precarious sense of hope, long before
the winter storms have passed. Confined indoors, movement
constrained, it's a good time for ambient music, with its
sustained mood of intimacy, warmth, and gentle ecstasy.

PGM 760 : "UNDERSCORE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : exploring the world of ambient film music
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-17-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Here's the thing about soundtrack albums: no matter how
good the music in the film is, you just never know how good the
CD will be.
Some of the best composers and studio musicians in the world
work on these projects. No expense is spared to record the music and
mix it into the film. Then, the soundtrack CD is thrown together in a
few days from dozens of short "cues," padded with "incidental music"
or songs from hot young bands, and rushed to market in time for the
film's opening. As listening experiences go, they're totally unpredictable:
you just never know.
Yet the original function of film music has a lot in common
with ambient and space music -- to color the environment, evoke
emotion, and underscore the action on the screen -- just like
ambient does to the action in your room.

INTRO: In every country, the ballad is an invitation to stop,
listen and feel. Nowhere is this invitation more eloquently
tendered than in Celtic music. It's a tradition that's been
nurtured across the centuries. Whether the emotion is love,
sadness, joy, nostalgia, or peace -- the gorgeous melodies,
essential instruments, and sublime vocals go straight to
the heart.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a retro-future-cosmic-twangy guitar journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 3-03-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Back in 1990, we did a program called "Mostly Infinite
Guitars" celebrating MICHAEL BROOK's effort to dematerialize the
electric guitar. The title was kind of cute, and we found more
music, so three years later we followed it up with an even cuter
one called "More Infinite Guitars."
Fast forward to 2006. Other guitar shows have come and gone,
and once again we have lots of great material for a new show.
We could call it "Still More Infinite Guitars," but you know, we
didn't really start this series properly. On this transmission of
Hearts of Space, a retro-future-ambient-guitar journey called
just plain "INFINITE GUITARS."

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : ambient/electronic/melodic/chordal spacemusic
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 2-17-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Electronic music has been evolving for the better part
of a century now. The novelty has come and gone, and in recent
years, electronics have found their way into dozens of genres.
But there's one place where it really feels like home: electronic
spacemusic.
Whether cruising across distant starfields, drifting through
clouds of interstellar dust, or just floating peacefully in the
good ole cosmic soup, spacemusic takes us to a galaxy far,
far away. That may be escapism, but hey, we like it. We might
even need it. On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we harvest
a nice crop of melodic/chordal spacemusic on a program called
ELECTROSPHERE.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM 756 : "PIANOSCAPES 3"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : piano, personal and contemplative
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 2-10-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: In its three hundred year history, the piano has grown
both larger and smaller, gone electric and then electronic, and
been the anchor and reference point for a sizeable fraction of
Western music. Through it all, the range, versatility, rhythmic
clarity and melodic appeal of the instrument has kept it at the
forefront of music from pop, to jazz, to classical.
For a few rare artists, the piano can be magically transformed
into a personal voice -- a heart to heart communication channel
direct to the listener. On this transmission of Hearts of Space,
we listen for that personal touch, on a contemplative journey
called PIANOSCAPES 3.

INTRO: The yearning, glacial sound of Norwegian musician
JAN GARBAREK's tenor saxophone. It's traveled far and wide
from his home base at the Arctic edge of Europe. He was the
very first artist on the indispensable ECM label. In fact,
it's hard to imagine ECM without Norway; many of the musicians
are based there, and Oslo is ground zero for Rainbow Studios,
home of the crystalline, passionate ECM sound.

PGM 480R : "HEAVEN ON EARTH"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : wintry bells, resonant gongs, and glass harmonica
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 1-27-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Let's talk about bells for a minute. Once upon a time,
all the clocks had bells. Time came clanging and resonating
across our towns and cities every hour with the sound of a bell
from the town hall. It's almost quaint to recall in this era of
the electronic ringtone, but we used to have real brass bells in
every telephone in America. (I know this because I took them
apart when I was a teenager.) All the churches had BIG bells.
And, of course, there were sleigh bells in the winter, and we
still had bell ringers at Christmas.
In Asia, they had gongs, metallophones, and all kinds of
ceremonial bells. And in Tibet, they made bells out of alloys
of many metals, achieving rich mixtures of tone, and crystalline
bells of amazing purity that were used as tools for meditation.
So, what I'm saying here is that bells go way back, but the role
they play in society had a lot to do with where and when.
From celebratory to alarming, calming to psychoactive,
meditative to mundane, bells are one of the seven wonders
of sound and music, and we're going to feature them
on this edition of HEARTS of SPACE.

PGM 754 : "SUMMONING THE MUSE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a tribute to the music of Dead Can Dance
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 1-20-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The Anglo/Irish/Australian band DEAD CAN DANCE hit an
uncommonly rich musical vein as they evolved. Starting as a gloomy
"darkwave" rock band in Australia in 1981, they moved to London and
soon embraced ancient, modal, medieval and world music influences.

Like all true artists, they transformed these into something much more
than the sum of its parts. Fronted by LISA GERRARD's incomparable
wordless vocals and BRENDAN PERRY's superb production, they created
a deep and beautiful sound that's been tremendously influential for
artists from Classical to Gothic, New Age to Dark Ambient.

In 2005, Projekt Records released a multi-artist tribute to DEAD CAN
DANCE that's the inspiration for this edition of Hearts of Space.
We celebrate the legacy of DEAD CAN DANCE on a program called
SUMMONING THE MUSE.
