The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

"NWK-WTC resuming normal service. The earlier incident with a disruptive passenger has been resolved at NWK. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused."
The same impersonal message each time. Even though this week we have not had those Blade Runner orange skies recently, for some reason today I imagine the worse regarding what actually happened and the resolution
