The Guitar and Other Machinesleverages the freeform format of noncommercial FM radio to get the music and sounds created by underrepresented and lesser known artists into unsuspecting ears as an ongoing audio art project always erring on the experimental.
This week we start off with a love letter to 577 Records out of New York celebrating their 25th year before moving onto a new release from Shabaka Hutchings, some Norma Tenega, and a track from this radio show’s namesake Durutti Column.
