JUNIOR ASPIRIN RADIO SESSION 13: EXERCISES IN STYLE

'It doesn't seem to me that anyone has discovered much that's new since the Illiad or the Odyssey'Raymond Queneau

'The audience, which consisted largely of bikers, was unusually hostile, and Iggy, as usual, fed on that hostility, soaked it up and gave it back and absorbed it all over again in an eerie, frightening symbiosis. "All right," he finally said, stopping a song in the middle, "you assholes wanta hear 'Louie Louie' we'll give you 'Louie, Louie.'" So the Stooges played a forty-five-minute version of 'Louie Louie'"Lester Bangs

JUNIOR ASPIRIN RADIO SESSION 12: EXPLAINING SUCCESS AND FAILURE

On the occasion of the 2010 Men's World Cup Steeplechase in Wimbledon, South Africa, Junior Aspirin Radio look under the bonnet of audience expectations surrounding notions of receiving Chinese rugs, the possibility of having actually read Pierre Bourdieu, and interrogating performative gesturalities in relation to the idea of being a total fucking A-1 loser. Devised and selected by Dan Fox and Andy Cooke. Presented by Dan Fox.

JUNIOR ASPIRIN PODCAST 11: "EXPLAINING LIMBO"

The UK is in limbo, frozen in time, being kept "alive" in cryonic support at −273.15°C. Andy Cooke presents a collection of tracks hanging in a suspended animation, a kind of activity schedule for purgatory. More or less pagan, but all virtuous, some of these cuts are noisy, some are contemplative - some will survive for minutes, others might keep well for centuries. The plan is to replace all the organic elements with synthetic hardware in preparation for a cybernetic crisis free future, probably without a banking system.

JUNIOR ASPIRIN PODCAST 09: THE HUMORS, in FOUR PARTS....

Four reflections on medieval humorism. Like Rick Wakeman said of his "Six wives of Henry VIII" , these are not meant to be taken as literal representations of the four medieval temperaments... rather a contemporary redressing of an imbalance of humors.
Devised and selected by Patrick Gibson.

Part One - Sanguine.
Laughing the loudest and wearing the flashiest outfits, a courageous selection of tracks. Ultimately lending themselves to sketches, life drawings, and rustic scenes. The humor of Sanguine is usually treated with leeches. PODCAST HERE

Part Two - Choleric.
BILE BILE BILE a fiery YELLOW grouping. There is nothing I love as much as a good fight. A natural superabundance of the choleric. PODCAST HERE

Part Three - Melancholic.
Semper Dowland, semper dolens. Melancholy Dane. Indolent dreaming wistfulness. Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain? PODCAST HERE

Part Four - Phlegmatic.
Get up late in the morning; Dorian mode on C; Take a nap; Eat; In this case the mode is the Phrygian; Take another nap; Go to bed. Hey Mr Pharmacist!
This is one for those availed of a superb set of headphones - frequency spectrum junkies, medotists, nanologicians, monkish gong ritualists - communicate with the insect kingdom: Phenomenon, certainly but without the Iron Maiden. PODCAST HERE
