[Repeated from Wednesday 11pm.] A series of late night deep listening soundtracks presented by Robin The Fog. Tonight's episode opens with a spool of tape containing the sublime composition 'Reflections' by composer Phil Ellis, purporting to date from the late '70s to early '80s. We're playing it partly as an appeal, in the hope that somebody can help us track Phil down as this may be the first time the work has been heard in 40 years! We also hear tracks from 'Eleven Fugues For Sodium Pentothal', the new solo album by former Stars of the Lid member Adam Wiltzie, plus recent works from Will Gardner and Field Lines Cartographer. To close, a second Phil Ellis piece, 'Unquiet', followed by four extracts from Maryanne Royle's installation 'Look at this Land, Look Around You' at Gallery FRANK in Littleborough. Come drift into the night with us... Further details at: robinthefog.com.
