Friendly Potential Radio

We air selections from two crucial Dunedin artists. Millie Lovelock performs solo as Repulsive Woman, and with Isaac Hickey as Astro Children. Millie was a recent alumnus of the Red Bull Music Academy in Berlin, and has just completed a tour of Europe and the UK. She has kindly put together an amazing mixtape of songs that have accompanied her on tour, while sitting in a cafe in Oxford. Following that, we hear from Maxine Funke. Maxine broke the silence this year with the Eternity and Lemonade 7"s, and an album called Home Fi. She also has a new album, Silk, due in mid-December on Feeding Tube. These new releases are beautifully skeletal yet transcendent, in the vein of her earlier releases Felt and Lace. Maxine compiled some of her home-listening for us, and we're so grateful to share it with you.

Notes from Millie:

- selection of tracks I've been listening to since heading out on tour in the EU/UK following RBMA in Berlin

- my time in Berlin opened my mind and ears to more electronic music and encouraged me to see the similarities between the music I make and music that might be better suited to dancing. The continuity in the songs I picked out is a visceral sense of corporeality. Each of the artists is pretty introspective, but you can hear they're very conscious of how music passes in and out of them, both emotionally and physically, and for me that's the most important quality an artist can have.

- being on tour is also a weird and liminal experience, you move so much and do so much but spend a stupid amount of time incredibly static in between action. Before tour, I spent two weeks doing nothing but making music-i didn't really listen to anything- so once we got on the road I wanted to keep my brain moving at the same pace as it had been going in Berlin even though I was out of the studio. I've listened to these artists a lot in transit to do that, each song has such a strong sense of purpose.

- NB: Jam City and Planningtorock both gave lectures at RBMA, and Sneaks was a participant.

- the passions German film star song is one of my favourite songs, i used to listen to it on a cassette mixtape in my dad's car. spending so much time in the car you have to build little worlds for yourself, and that song is such a complete scene, it used to drive me wild as a kid. Every other song on the playlist I think does a similar thing, you feel the song so deeply it's like you're actually inside it.

This time we're joined by Hame DJ, a Perth-based DJ and producer. His debut Dog Swamp EP, out now on Vulcan Venti, is a hot spin at FP HQ. Hamish made us this mix while preparing for his set on the Good Company (Records) stage at Freedom Time in Perth on NYE. Their brief of 'dark digi dubby' & 'dub influenced music that isn't dub' informed the mix, which he recorded at his 3rd home of Eton Street, North Perth. Simon recorded the last hour in Invercargill while the sky was falling.

Geneva Skeen is a Los Angeles-based artist and composer, whose music explores the contrast between the depleting resources of the physical world, and the apparent relentlessness of digital representations. Her latest release, A Parallel Array of Horses, is her first for Lawrence English's Room40. The album melds recordings of voice and the environment alongside various electronics, in order to toy with time, and embody some form of mutant consciousness. Her mix for us tonight is more upfront - at times confrontational or comforting. Simon ties together some new and old threads to close.

Enjoy a ragged wall of banging kicks and hard edged synth lines, & keep the fire extinguisher handy. On a similar tip, FP DJ Scarlett works it till the end of the show.
