Cashemere Radio Compilation (Berlin)


Featuring: James Hazel – dirtstripnasalgrasslandroot. For working-class voice, alto saxophone, double bass, and field recordings gathered in Budapest, dirtstripnasalgrasslandroot

https://cashmereradio.bandcamp.com/album/miga-vol-2


Almost one year in the making, Berlin’s beloved Cashmere Radio is proud to announce the release of its second mega-compilation in the MIGA series, coinciding with the celebration of our 10th year on air and in the studio.

The compilation is a survey of the variety and intensity of the scene surrounding the radio station, and the vital work it produces. Cashmere Radio sidesteps the prevailing big-room-techno stereotypes of the city and instead provides a comfy virtual and physical space to host a community of truly experimental radio makers, their guests and an occasional live audience.

Comprised of just a small slice of the intensive output of the group of DJs, musicians, sound artists and community members of all other descriptions into a dizzying 103 track compilation, MIGA Vol. 2 builds on MIGA Vol. 1 with almost double the amount of tracks, and a growing sonic diversity that’s somehow been sequenced into a flowing transmission which gently drifts the listener from one unexpected place to the next.

Well known acts and Cashmere Radio mainstays, performing as themselves and under aliases, rub shoulders with friends of the station in a tracklist that largely defies genre but covers territory from crooning-outsider-electro-pop to radio-play and Hörspiel; softly-spoken-word to wav-ish-industrial; rubbed-out-motorik to birdless-field-recording; and of course with 103 tracks there’s always more.

As with MIGA Vol. 1, the compilation is part of Cashmere Radio's ongoing fundraising campaign.

All proceeds from this release will go directly towards keeping Cashmere Radio on the air. Operating completely on small donations, goodwill and the enthusiasm of committed volunteers gives the station a resilience and independence that’s not reliant on arts, government or corporate funding. This is especially important in light of this year's oppressive cuts to the cultural budget and the increasingly harder to navigate landscape for artists in Berlin.

Please consider supporting us by buying the album or leaving a donation, so that our radio station can continue to be there for YOU and the many individuals and communities that pour so much passion into this project.

Thanks to everyone who donated a track and to all who supported this gargantuan endeavour.

GEORGE PATON GALLERY:
Structural Listening; Surplus Vocalities : a workshop with James Hazel

WHEN: Tuesday 23 September, 1-3PM
WHERE: Meet at the Arts Lab, Level 1, Arts and Cultural Building, Monash Road, Building 159 (MAP), next to the George Paton Gallery.
RSVP NOW

https://umsu.unimelb.edu.au/news/article/7890/Structural-Listening-Surplus-Vocalities-a-workshop-with-James-Hazel/

How can we better understand experiences of precarity and social class within late-stage capitalist institutions?

Facilitated by artist and sociologist James Hazel, this workshop will focus on creating a series of ‘structural listening’ scores aimed at exploring the social practices, experiences, and embodiments rendered invisible by neoliberal governmentality and administrative logics. Through the lens of song, music, sound, and the sonic arts — and drawing on Brandon LaBelle’s idea of poor acoustics — we will explore what it means to attune to the barely audible and pre(care)ious thresholds of under/heard socioeconomic experience.

By engaging with auditory knowledge(s), we ask how listening might open up new ways of understanding and attending to soft-lives lived in precarity.

CLASS ACTIONS X LIQUID ARCHITECTURE WORKSHOP: 
CLASS WORK; CLASSED VOCALITIES:
POLY-RYTHMIC: MUSIC//TALK//EATS #5


In May, @class_actions members - @kaztherese and James Hazel  facilitated the 'Class Work; Classed Vocalities' workshop with Liquid Architecture @liquid_architecture for the Poly-rhythmic: Music//Talks//Eats series.

In this, we explored what intersectional, lived, class experiences mean in contemporary so-called 'Australia' via working/under-class vocalities, poetics, text, singing, movement, and Queer Underclass Joy.

It was such a joy and honour for us to share the space with all those involved (a beautiful group of creatives) – sharing stories, poetry – some deep class-work pedagogy across differing classed modalities, whilst holding and making real space for sacred, lived, low-socioeconomic stories.

A highlight of the workshop series was to premiere the films we made with our co-founder Gadigal/Bidgigal/Yuin Elder Aunty Rhonda Dixon Grovenor interrogating the hauntologies of gentrification in so-called Redfern, on Gadigal Land, to a Naarm audience.

The workshop was generously catered, with lunch and Arabic coffee by @knafehnabulseyeh.

Thanks so much to the generosity and support of LA Director Kristi, Rohan, and the Liquid Architecture team for the support. xx

More @class__actions work to come this year.

Notes contributed by James Hazel to text by leading experimental Italian composer Renato Grieco, published in Sound Chapters; Voices of Sound Experimentation in Italy (2025)










Sound Chapters: Voices of Sound Experimentation in Italy is a hybrid volume dedicated to the sound arts scene in Italy. Using textuality as an intimate form of sound, the book reproduces the temperature of the voice in writing. The word acts as ventriloquism and imitates remote vocalities. In the chapters, stories, essays, research, poems, scores and songs sound without hierarchies, highlighting plurality. Intertwining contributions that escape the habits of writing, the project amplifies a fluid and inclusive bibliography on the subject. The authors of this book are artists, researchers, curators and cultural organizers who, in the last ten years, have played an active role in the experimental sound arts scene in Italy. The book is not only a theoretical reflection on the Italian sound scene, but also the catalogue of Mezz'aria. The strange opening of sound research , a collective that explored sound research in the exhibition context of the Museum of the Twentieth Century and Contemporary Art of Palazzo Fabroni in Pistoia (20.05-15.08 2023). Artists and researchers: Marco Baldini, Elena Biserna, Luca Boffi, Andrea Borghi, Mattia Capelletti, Francesco Cavaliere, Stefano De Ponti, Nicola Di Croce, Giulia Deval, Alessandra Eramo, Paolo Gabriotti, Giulia Gonfiantini, Renato Grieco, Riccardo La Foresta, Enrico Malatesta, Chiara Pavolucci, Leandro Pisano, Diana Lola Posani, Radio Papesse, Francesco Toninelli.

Score by composed for
COMMON PLACE  in That’s Two, Thank You, FORM’s new annual dance festival celebrating the art of the duet.


Omer Backley-Astrachan and Jana Castillo
presented by
FORM Dance Projects, Riverside Theatres and That’s Two, Thank You






Common Place by Omer Backley-Astrachan is an exhilarating dance duet featuring two seasoned Sydney-based performers. It tells the story of two individuals coming together through a rite; a ritual; a celebration. Together they ride the edge of chaos. Reaching, swiveling, gripping onto dance as a monumental force of life.

“At its core, Common Place celebrates fearlessness. The power of folkloric dance lies in its humanity- its ability to reflect our shared histories and reveal the topography of experience through our emotional and empathic capabilities. In this work, we come together, fully devoted to the simple yet profound act of dancing together.

I am honored to collaborate and share the stage with the exceptional dance artist Jana Castillo. Together, we look forward to offering this work to the eyes, ears, and hearts of Sydney audiences and sharing this meaningful moment with the community here.” Omer Backley-Astrachan.

Common Place is presented in That’s Two, Thank You, FORM’s new annual dance festival celebrating the art of the duet.

CASHMERE RADIO

Poor Opera(tions) / James Hazel with Jeremy Coubrough

MIlitant Dilettantes (Sonja Hornung & Daniele Tognozzi)

Live online and in the studio
Cashmereradio.com
DM for location details

INCLOSURE ACTS refers to the process of privatizing the collectively owned lands of Britain, a process that mirrored and informed the dispossession of Indigenous peoples in its colonies. Acts has a double meaning here, both legal and performative, and this program presents works that speak to land, class and the law through performance and sound.

Poor Opera(tions) / James Hazel's work as a composer and researcher is informed by experiences living in the social-housing system. James presents works such as '(under)scoring the commons,' developed with the Gosford community – a gentrifying, working-class neighborhood north of Sydney. He also performs with saxophonist Jeremy Coubrough on 'extended transcription no. 2 (dirtstripnasalgrasslandroot).'

In May 2020 the mining company Rio Tinto destroyed the Jukaan Gorge caves, sacred sites of the Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura peoples in Northern Western Australia. Nathan Gray presents manipulated field recordings of the automated kilometer trains that remove tons of iron ore from the site every day, a horror sound track for an extractionist world.

Militant Dilettantes (Sonja Hornung and Daniele Tognozzi) present The ESG Shit Show or The Tragedy of the Horizon (2023), a radio melodrama about the greenwashing, artwashing and social impact washing of finance, and what happens when representation is reduced to the management of risk.

Like pt.1, pt.2 of Dialogue for Liberation responds to Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza and the West Bank with a call for decolonial liberation. As Ijeoma Oluo put it in a a post from a few days back, “Free Palestine is Black Liberation is Indigenous Sovereignty is Queer Liberation is Anti-Capitalism is Disability Justice is Gender Justice is Prison Abolition is Collective Liberation. Free Palestine is how all empires fall.” 

With huge thanks to contributors for the following, original material:

Sabeen Chaudhry — “G.” (from Rimming the Event Horizon, 2023)

James Hazel — On Pre(care)ity (or underclass love) (2023), w/ guitar by D.M. (James’ dad)

Joshua Jones — “Money”; “Speech”; “Shores” (poems from the upcoming pamphlet, Deconstructions)

Svetlana Rakocevic & Justin Katko — None of This

 **This piece was based on Suheir Hammad’s poem “What I Will” (2013), here interwoven with protest chants in Arabic from a recent London protest (thanks to streetsoundsystem crew!); a section of the BDS food list; and Pasolini’s line “This is a different landscape. There is a desire to kill here” quoted in Sean Bonney’s collection Our Death (2019)

NEW ANUAL FESTIVAL: CATAPULT DANCE; RHAPSODY



Catapult Dance Choreographic Hub presents: Rhapsody, a one-of-a-kind cultural experience. Rhapsody is a radical new dance work by accomplished choreographer Omer Backley-Astrachan that takes the audience beyond the familiar theatrical setting and onto the fifth floor of a parking lot in Newcastle's West.

This mesmerizing performance consists of a series of virtuosic movement-poems that explore the tensions between two bodies, interwoven to create an intense and uplifting cultural experience. Rhapsody is performed twice, back-to-back, by different duo casts with varying gender identities, granting viewers the opportunity to relive the work and gain alternative viewpoints on the dynamics and dramaturgy in the work.

Accompanied by music by groundbreaking composer James Hazel, Rhapsody celebrates intensity of expression and invites the audience to embark on a powerful and exhilarating journey through dance.

Recommended for audiences 15+.

AUGUST 2022: ‘(DE)GHOSTING THE ARCHIVE; PUBLISHED BY CARRIAGEWORKS JOURNAL



Was a privilege to write about Kaz Therese's recent show 'Sleeplessness' a few weeks ago. Thank you to Carriageworks Journal for publishing this essay."Sleeplessness invokes many such questions around what it means to inhabit a traumatised and classed body. How can theatre and institutions be reworked and rewritten for these needs? These are persistent questions that the work is attempting to address through particular (in)formal devices – a means to redetermine the very structure of theatre as an alternative to a format, which is arguably engineered for the linear, teleological European patriarchal Master-narrative, underpinned by the cultural myth of having-it-together –an inherited format we still revere all too disproportionately to other modes of knowledge production.To perform one’s disrupted lineage of subalternity against the received template, as Kaz does, demands an ethical under-working of performance – potentially leading towards a prescient, bodily-led process of feeling over form. For rather than surrendering to the professional dictates or traditions of this tendency to contort one’s voice, corporeality, and identity, Therese and director Anthea Williams have retrofitted drama to work for them. An approach made apparent when Kaz interludes: “[Stage Manager] Anastasia is gonna help me tell the story. They have my back. Anastasia will operate the show and when I don’t want to talk about something they will sort it out for me, because sometimes, I don’t know…” In both the rehearsal and opening performance, Kaz relied on Anastasia to take over the narration (with a voice recording) during the section about Mel’s disappearance – a portion of the story that discloses an eerie mimesis of their grandmother Lenke’s plight; a wound that will probably never resolve."

JULY: INSTRUMENTALISING YOUR DESIRE:
SCREENDIVE: GAUDEAMUS COMISSION


Instrumentalising Your Desire; Effective Meditations Protocol® is an audio-visual program developed via the Social Practices Association (located on the 18th Parallel of Adminicity). SPA produces ‘effective meditational’ instructional modules which can be adapted to calibrate the employee-affect-relations (EARS) of nearly every industry.

Developed from Director James Hazel’s patented SURVEY-SCORE© technology, we turn to the realm of the sonic as a medium that can reveal employees’ deeper machinic-desires, both in and out of the work-play-space. This offers an innovative solution to the previous ocular-centric, market-based approaches to management and logistics.




JULY: ADSR ZINE:
SPECIAL COLLECTION EXHIBITION:
SYDENHAM CONTEMPORARY GALLERY



"James Hazel and Elia Bosshard of ADSR ZINE invite you to our next archival exhibition, of works drawn out and extended from digital to material forms; a provisional library which includes texts of special value, from the personal collections our contributing artists; a space wherein we can spend long durations with those writers/thinkers that have influenced our thinking and practice. In building this library, we are interested in the ways a text might betray a sense of having been lived with and alongside;

notes / comments / folded pages / signs of wear and tear /of treasured and pleasured annotations; those intimacies and proximities that index the ways in which ideas and words never expire on the page, but permeate all facets of experiential syntax."





JULY: CLASS-ACTIONS COLLECTIVE
COMMUNITY WORKSHOP: CARRIAGEWORKS




As part of Kaz Therese’s SLEEPLESSNESS public-program, Karen Therese, Aunty Rhonda Dixon-Grovenor, and James Hazel invite artists who have experienced involuntary poverty to participate in a workshop program. This workshop will extend the conversations around themes of SLEEPLESSNESS @carriageworks.

Info available on the Carriageworks website.

The workshop will explore our shared and lived experiences of class via labour, trauma, love and care in an era of radical change.

The workshop will be organised around a three-part collaborative approach comprising Kaz Therese’s Radical Kindness method; Gadigal and Bidgigal Elder Aunty Rhonda Dixon-Grovenor’s First Nations Cultural Leadership; and Composer James Hazel’s pre(care)ious listening exercises.

The objective of the creative process of Class Actions is to prioritise the mental, spiritual and cultural safety of artists and participants.

CLASS ACTIONS is a collective focused on better understanding how poverty, class and identity intersect within an era of radical change/crisis - guided by

the lived experiences of the CLASS ACTION founding members (Karen Therese, Aunty Rhonda Dixon-Grovenor and James Hazel) across three generations.
