PGM 816 : "BORDERLANDS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : ambiguous spaces in the transition zone
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 9-28-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: A border can be a boundary...or a grey area —
a line of demarcation...or a zone of ambiguity. Borders
between countries are political boundaries; they can be
the scene of violent confrontation, as in the Middle East,
or so remote that few people ever see them.

Outside of politics, a border can be a barrier...or a zone
of transition. In music, we often find ambiguous borders
between styles and genres — in fact, much of today's
fusion music is interesting because it deliberately disregards
borders. There's a lot of information...at the borders.

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a journey in
ambiguous, transitional spaces called BORDERLANDS.

PGM 561R : "TRANCE-FORMATION"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a trance-ambient introspection
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 9-21-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: What's in a trance? It's a state of mind that has a
history of fascinating society through the ages.

From ancient shamanic ceremonies that provoke visions
with extended rituals and mind-blowing chemistry, through
the whirling dervishes of 13th century Islam, the hypnosis
techniques of Professor Mesmer and others in the 20th
century, right up to the cathartic all-night dance marathons
of the rave generation — inducing trance states...
is something like the extreme sports division of mysticism.

On this edition of Hearts of Space called TRANCE-FORMATION,
we'll take a slightly safer approach — with a trance-ambient
journey by musicians who attempt to create this experience
in sound.

PGM 815 : "VIHUELA"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : an excursion in the Spanish-Moorish soundscape
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 9-14-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: If you're not an aficionado of Early Music, you may not
have heard of it, but the ancestor of the guitar was the vihuela,
also called the viola da mano. With six sets of double strings
tuned like a lute, the vihuela was the 15th-century bridge between
the the Arabic oud and the modern six-string Spanish guitar.

The rich fusion of cross-cultural influences from Iberia, North
Africa, Jewish and Gypsy cultures that produced flamenco in the
18th century were built on it, and variations on this much loved
music continue to grow and develop today.

On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, we explore this world
with another journey in the Spanish-Moorish soundscape called
VIHUELA.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the piano as a path to peace
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 9-07-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Sitting down at a grand piano offers a musician a world
of choices. It can be a vehicle for flights of romantic passion
or classical form, improvisation or interpretation. But for some,
it's a path to peace, a conduit to the sublime, a way to enter
the hushed, sensitive dimensions of sound and feeling.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : unlocking the mystery of relative motion
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 8-31-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: TIME. We watch it, measure it, charge for it and, if we
have too much, we even try to kill it. But in the end, it's a
mystery. For centuries, musicians have played with time,
discovering that time is related to motion and rhythm — that
time is fluid, a perception that can be modified, if you
know how. On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, we try to
unlock the secrets of relative motion...on a program called
SLOW TIME.

PGM 813 : "THE MUSIC OF MYST"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a journey in mythic soundworlds
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 8-24-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: One of the great inspirations to brilliant computer
programmers and offbeat artists everywhere is the story
of brothers RAND and ROBYN MILLER — creators of the hit
computer game MYST.

From the first CD-ROM edition in 1993, the MYST franchise
evolved through four sequels and a spinoff, sold over 12 million
games and spawned six soundtrack albums, three novels, several
comics, and an online version.

Inspired by Jules Verne's "Mysterious Island," from the beginning
the Miller brothers blazed their own trail, setting new content and
visual standards,and ultimately changing the way people played
computer games. In a world of gory, violent "first person shooters,"
MYST invented its own category, with immersive environments
of stunning artistic quality, texture and atmosphere, and a focus
on puzzle-solving in a moral universe driven by a mythic story.

The original music of MYST was the work of ROBYN MILLER. In
addition to his graphic talents, he was a fine ambient/electronic
musician. Subtle, deep and atmospheric, his music set the tone
for the emotional experience of MYST. Sequels were scored by
ROBYN MILLER, JACK WALL, and TIM LARKIN.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the sound of tranquility in motion
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 8-17-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: These days, most of us move at an unprecedented pace.
We schedule ourselves to the minute, zip down the freeway
at speeds our ancestors could scarcely imagine, and run —
to keep fit. When it's time for a vacation, we go faster, and
jet off to another continent. No wonder, when we get there,
we find our bodies are lagging behind.

The ancient arts of Yoga and Tai Chi teach us how to find a
calm center in the midst of constant movement. And a group
of ambient electronic artists make music that creates this
sense of tranquility...in motion.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a journey in the contemporary Turkish soundscape
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 8-10-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Modern Turkish music has come to us through a path as
complex and ornamental as Turkish calligraphy. Located in the
Eastern Mediterranean at the gateway to Central Asia, for
centuries Turkey was an economic and cultural crossroads,
absorbing influences from Persian, Byzantine, Southern
European, and Middle Eastern traditions...and cross-pollinating
them with its own rich heritage.

For most of the 600 years of the Ottoman empire, Turkey
dominated the region. When KEMAL ATATURK consciously
modernized Turkey in the early 20th century, western classical
and popular music were added to an already complex cultural
mix. Today Istanbul has one of the most vibrant and varied
musical scenes anywhere.

On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, a journey in the
contemporary Turkish soundscape called CRESCENT MOON.

INTRO: Summer...gets our motors running, as Americans
hit the road in our annual quest to relax, expand, squander
fossil fuel and warm the atmosphere.

It's a time for stretching boundaries, expanding the envelope,
exploring. Yet below the dynamic surface of the season, a
slower, more subtle experience awaits, if we can just slow
down enough to find it.

PGM 810 : "DESERT DREAMFIELDS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a deep desert journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 7-27-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: In the desert, extremes of sun, wind, temperature and
terrain challenge all living things to evolve a strategy for
survival. So desert travelers take it slow and steady. But for
those who venture into its vast spaces, the promise of discovery
awaits: a mythic environment of isolation and introspection,
concealed by panoramic expanses. In the words of EDWARD ABBEY,
the desert is a "window onto eternity."

PGM 809 : "AFRICAN GENESIS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a journey into the quiet heart of Africa
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 7-20-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The lilting songs of the Baka pygmies of Cameroon have
achieved international fame through the efforts of sympathetic
Western musicians. Just as DNA research has shown that Africa is
the origin point of the human species, in the last 200 years, the
infectious rhythms and harmonies of African music have bred new
styles of western music — originally laying the foundation for
blues, jazz and other forms of popular music, and more recently,
spawning a host of brilliant variations of what we now call
World Music.

While the majority of African music is for dance and celebration,
there's also a more contemplative sound. On this transmission
of Hearts of Space, we journey through the rhythms into the quiet
heart of African music...on a program called AFRICAN GENESIS.

PGM 808 : "ATLAS DEI"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : Robert Rich's music for the art film ATLAS DEI
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 7-13-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Ambient composer ROBERT RICH is one of the cardinal
artists of Hearts of Space. We started working with him in the
1970s when we were still a local radio program and he had yet
to release his first cassette recording. (You do remember
cassettes, don't you?)

From his early experiments with home-made analog synthesizers
and extended improvisations to his mature masterpieces,
Robert Rich and Hearts of Space have grown and developed
together for over 30 years.

We did a retrospective program of Robert's music at the turn of
the millennium, covering his recordings from the 1980's to 2000.
Since then, not only has he been extraordinarily productive, in
2007 he released his own compilation of his previous work.
Rather than a simple retrospective selection, he composed new
pieces, modified or remixed others, and tied the music to a
remarkable DVD art film in surround sound called ATLAS DEI,
produced with digital artist and filmmaker DANIEL COLVIN.

The film is described as "a lyrical journey through time and
space into the mystery of our cosmos...weaving the strands
of science, myth, and poetic vision into an eloquent tapestry
of the human enigma."

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, Robert Rich's
elegant electro-acoustic music from ATLAS DEI.

PGM 671R : "TRANS-TRIBAL EXPRESS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : ambient electronics meet tribal rhythms
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 7-06-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: What's in a "tribe"? The word returned to popular culture
in the 1960s and has been in and out of fashion ever since.
Of course, in most of the so-called "third world," it's not fashion:
tribal societies are still the day-to-day reality, and musicians
from sophisticated Western countries have been finding
inspiration and vitality in tribal music for hundreds of years.
It makes sense: all of us have roots in tribal culture somewhere.

On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a report from the
intersection of ambient electronics and tribal rhythms called
TRANS-TRIBAL EXPRESS.

PGM 807 : "GOSSAMER"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : refined textural-melodic spacemusic
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 6-29-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Texture in music is not something you hear much about.
Yet it's fundamental to the sound of music and the musical
experience, a result of instrumental combinations, rhythms,
timbres, harmonies, and how you put it all together. Today
we have almost total control of musical texture in the studio.

The much-reviled new age genre is full of artists and composers
who create amazingly sophisticated textures in their recordings.
Like most things, it's worth taking the time to find the good ones —
their refined sounds can take you emotional places worth going.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space we'll try to do just that,
on a textural-melodic journey called GOSSAMER.

PGM 806 : "INDIAN SUMMER SOLSTICE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a warm weather raga
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 6-22-07
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The buttery softness of the bansuri flute is a good
indication that we're headed into the dreamy, sensual world
of Indian music this time. When it comes to quietly ecstatic,
subtly skillful music making, Indian classical music is hard to
beat; these days it's often enhanced by electronics and a bit
of studio magic. And here at the official beginning of summer,
it's just the thing to get you in tunE and flowing...with
the season.
