We’re\u00a0absolutely chuffed to learn that the Shortwave Radio Audio Archive (SRAA)<\/a>\u00a0has made the pages of\u00a0the October 2015 issue of the British alt\u00a0music magazine,\u00a0The Wire<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0Following\u00a0are two excerpts\u00a0from the brief but powerful column by Richard Thomas:<\/p>\n

Thomas continues in this vein, his descriptions of the varied content\u00a0inviting\u00a0readers to immerse themselves\u00a0in the SRAA’s static-infused\u00a0depths.<\/p>\n

Finally, Thomas\u00a0concludes by describing in terms no less than\u00a0lyrical exactly why he\u00a0responds\u2013as so many do, myself included\u2013to\u00a0the\u00a0recordings found in the archive:<\/p>\n

Wow…what a testament to the power of sound. \u00a0Thanks, Richard and The Wire<\/em>\u2013we’re humbly\u00a0grateful that someone shares our passion for this growing project.<\/p>\n
