RELEASE DATE

Third volume in Discrepant's irregular split series. This time, they pair two artists at the top of their "collagist" game:
People Like Us
and
Porest
. "The Parallel Broadcasts" presents Porest's recordings from the covert sector of his archives. Culled from shortwave and FM broadcasts, these selections were intercepted via prepared radio -- finely tuned to receive what is known in certain circles as parallel broadcasting. Content explores the trauma of emerging global consciousness, acute cultural antipology and the urgent placement of democratic music today. Recorded on location in January and February, 2016. Featuring contributions from
Paul Staufenbiel
and
Michael DarrAll
, "All On A Beautiful Day" was recorded in Spring 2016 by People Like Us for "Optimized!", a week-long online a/v radio station programmed by
Vicki Bennett
, housed on WFMU's website which experimented with ideas of what radio might be in the world of high-speed internet broadcasting. The content included 26 new a/v artist works, including both this and Porest's "Parallel Broadcasts", where people were invited to respond to the word "optimized". RIYL:
