Quite a journey today, through genres, countries & continents, emotions and BPMs. This is how we do it in the house of Utility Fog.
Tonight at the top of the show I featured tracks from two big compilations of incredible Lebanese experimental music released by Tunefork Studios on Bandcamp to raise money for the millions of people displaced by Israel's invasion & now occupation of southern Lebanon. Land 01 came out in 2024, and now Land 02 and Land 03 have come out simultaneously. They're jam-packed with amazing music. There's a discount for getting all three, and it will go directly to supporting people in immediate need.
Utility Fog teeters on the cusp between acoustic and electronic, organic and digital. Constantly changing and rearranging, this aural cloud of nanotech consumes genres and spits them out in new forms.
Peter Hollo curates each episode around a narrative of genre-plasticity, deep-diving into artist histories, side projects and influences. Challenging sounds are contextualised within musical movements, surprising connections are uncovered, unfairly overlooked works are revisited.
Come on a journey through music in all its ugly beauty.
