hello alternative malta, how about an alternative to the alternative.... wire magazine have a weekly radio program called THE WIRE PRESENTS ADVENTURES IN MODERN MUSIC ON RESONANCE 104.4 FMresonance is a london only radio station. they have a website. all sorts of what i like to call "out" music is played on the program... but they also give some time to sonic youth and other mainstream stuff... some of the music played is just plain experimental dead end nonsense, but a decent percentage of it is superb, and very difficult to hear anywhere else, unless you buy every single release advertised on the magazine. insomma, here's the link: www.thewire.co.uk/web/air.phpi also highly recommend the wire's four part series about THE STATE OF THE SONG, which dealt with how far the envelope can be stretched in music while still calling the resultant thing "a song"... an excellent selection of tracks is played... you can find it here: www.thewire.co.uk/web/airextras.phpenjoy

This weeks counter culture show was fantastic! In fact i purposely take thursdays off so that I wont miss this show. New indie bands, Grass roots country, singer songwriters, some post punk, rare reggae brilliant - like a super cool mixtape.And Simon Reynolds (kind of the head of Rough Trade shops) has a sweet mellifluous voice
