Part listening session, part audio essay, Edward George’s now legendary series explores the strangeness of jazz, drawing on critical theory, social history, and a deep and a wide cross-genre musical selection. A feast for the ears and the brain.
This episode - 'Impressions II' - acts as a loose counterpoint to the first 'Impressions' episode from George's Strangeness of Dub series, and will take the works of John Coltrane as a jumping off point, alongside special guest, Seymour Wright.
Edward George is a writer and broadcaster. Founder of Black Audio Film Collective, George wrote and presented the ground-breaking science fiction documentary Last Angel of History (1996). George is part of the multimedia duo Flow Motion, and the electronic music group Hallucinator. He and hosts Sound of Music (Threads Radio), Kuduro – Electronic Music of Angola (Counterflows). George’s series The Strangeness of Dub (Morley Radio) dives into reggae, dub, versions and versioning, drawing on critical theory, social history, and a deep and a wide cross-genre musical selection. Edward George lives and works in London.
Seymour Wright's work is about the creative, situated friction of learning, ideas, people and the saxophone – music, history and technique – actual and potential.
