Record label list updated

Updated and added a few labels (mostly cassette ones) to the Swedish record label list.

More radio and sound art

Here are some assorted links mostly related to radio and sound art:

• The radio art seminar I attended last week was mentioned by Jesper Olsson in Svenska Dagbladet: Brechts visioner för radion är nära ("Brecht's visions for radio approach reality"). He also referred to the October issue of The Wire, Noise in the ether, devoted to creative broadcasting.
• The Wire also sponsors Cut & Splice: Transmission, an annual experimental music and sound art festival produced by Sound and Music and BBC Radio 3.
• Leftob is a netradio project of the Petcord netlabel. By the way, when will Electroacoustic Sweden, the webradio from SEAMS/Elektron, be available again? We miss it!
• Resonance is a new European sound art network based in the Netherlands.
• Hydrophonia is a festival "dedicated to hydrophonic sound art and raising public awareness of how man-made ocean noise affects marine life."

And now for something completely different:

• Canoris is a new web platform/API for sound/music analysis and voice synthesis.

Record label list updated

I've finally found time to update the record label list. There are about ten more labels, for a total of 52. Additions are of course welcome. Labels must be based in Sweden, and release electronic, electroacoustic, contemporary classical, experimental, free improv and related genres.
