Difficult Listening

Taking its name from a tongue-in-cheek moment in Laurie Anderson’s “Home of the Brave”, Difficult Listening is your place to experience sounds from the margins, and work out for yourself what you make of them.

Founded in the late 80s by Bryce Moore, the show is a space of total permission on the airwaves. Here, free jazz burners crossfade with microsonic field recordings, glittery avant-pop, electroacoustic fantasies, noise walls, outsider songwriting, and just about anything else that dwells well outside the norm.

Whilst sometimes nodding directly to the traditions of the European avant-garde and North American experimentalism, Difficult Listening presenters spend most of their time investigating pockets of exploratory curiosity all over the world, including the thriving local scene.
