isol: transmission01 begins a five part aural mapping of New Zealand, with a 50 minute journey through the monumental granular hum of electrical energy, the skittering frequencies of disrupted AM radio, and carved out by the frozen glass structures of slow moving sonic glaciers. Interwoven into the drone fabric are rare aotearoan audio traces: test transmissions, bird cries, enigmatic poetics, crashing storm winds, and natural radio harmonics.

The transmission features a new work, Tunnel Radio: Autours Detour, by Bruce Russell.
The programme also includes tracks by his other musical projects, A Handful of Dust and Dead C, and tracks by artists realeased on his label, Corpus Hermaticum.
