This is my third-to-last 95bFM Morning Glory show! Thank you so much to all the listeners, The Tuning Fork, and all the guests I have had over the years <3 On today's show I jump into a brief overview of one of my fave movements to come out of club culture - Deconstructed Club. In the age of web 2.0 ~ anything goes ~ with music/design/and art. If you're looking for sounds that respond to this hyperconnected and hybrid environ - deconstructed club is for you. As promised - some further reading/watching:
Another week's end, another show from Lucia. She plays some old favourites including a hark back to her first ever Morning Glory show, a Courtney Barnett version of Chastity Belt's Different Now, as well as some brand-new vinyl including Nina Simone's beautiful live album You've Got To Learn recorded at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1966.
