On this episode of Sonosphere we highlight the life and compositions of composer Margaret Bonds. So many people who made invaluable contributions to classical music have been nearly lost to history or are underappreciated in their time. Bonds is one of those characters. We learned more about her when we covered one of her mentors, American composer Florence B. Price earlier in 2021 - be sure to check out that episode. Bonds like Price is lesser known in the field of classical music - being both female and African-American - often not covered among classical European-based composers dominating the history of classical music. One of Bonds' largest and perhaps most important works–Montgomery Variations, written in 1965 during the Selma-to-Montgomery Freedom March and dedicated to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. On this MLK Day we celebrate composer Margaret Bonds.

This episode Sonosphere visits Dirty Socks Studios, which is the base camp for Unapologetic. The studio is a sanctuary for those who dare to commit to their craft. The theme is dedication to yourself and your mission. Unapologetic is a collective that looks to push Memphis forward. The collective is a cast of characters that are as odd as their aliases. Lead by IMAKEMADBEATS, Unapologetic has put the city on notice. Memphis has the reputation that you have to leave to make it in most industries especially music. Non-Memphians tend to capitalize on the “Memphis Sound,” Unapologetic is changing that notion. This starts in Dirty Socks Studios where we will pick up our conversation.

Welcome to Press Play, a monthly interview and mixtape from record labels, musicians, and bands from around the globe and in our own backyard! This month's Press Play mixtape comes from a Toronto-based label called Adhesive Sounds (A/S). Sonosphere connected with A/S creator, Kel. When did you create Adhesive Sounds? The winter of 2014 was a time when I was basically housebound with an illness. I was forced to find some kind of creative outlet to keep me active and ease any symptoms of cabin fever. During my imposed confinement, I started listening to more ambient and freeform music. Film scores were big on my listening menu as well as modern composers. I studied graphic design, and have an enduring interest in the relationship between sound and imagery and its packaging. Music has always been a huge part of my life and starting a label had been a pipe-dream. The label developed from this period of isolation. A blessing in disguise. For more on our interview with Kel and a complete track listing visit sonospherepodcast.com
On June 24th and 25th of 2017 an interesting experimental electronic music fest descended upon the MidSouth with artists primarily from Memphis, Mississippi, and the southeast. "I wanted to take electronic music back to its roots," said creator Robert Traxler. His inception for the fest came from the experimental spirit of the original electronic music artists like Delia Derbyshire, Karlheinz Stockhausen, John Cage, Pauline Oliveros, Suzanne Ciani, Pierre Schaeffer, and many, many more from the 1940s, 50s and 60s. But musique concrete is not all we found at this festival. Harsh noise, techno, ambient analog improv sets, and a live score of Forbidden Planet were a few of the performances found at Memphis Concrete. Take a tour through the fest with Robert and some of the talented artists that participated in the Memphis Concrete Festival in the latest episode of Sonosphere. Thanks to: Robert Traxler Dominic Van Horn (Aster, manualcontrol) Luis Seixas Ben Bauermeister Kim Rueger (Belly Full of Stars) Connor Brown (Cheap Spirits) Kane Blanchard (Tatras) Kole Oakes (Pas Moi) The live Memphis Concrete sets heard here by Belly Full of Stars, Aster, Cheap Spirits, Pas Moi, Ben Bauermeister, Tatras, manualcontrol, and Robert Traxler were captured and edited by Robert Traxler. Two other tracks used by participants in the fest are "#2" by NEPTR and "Viginti Quintuplet" by Ben Ricketts. Thanks to all the artists for sharing their time and work.
In this special, bonus episode of Sonosphere, we present An Evening with Wu Fei in collaboration with Crosstown Arts. This is Fei's live performance at the Crosstown Arts gallery on Cleveland Street in Memphis, TN on June 30, 2017. The intimate space lent itself to an interactive performance between the audience and Wu Fei, as she showcases what the guzheng can do through its thousand-year history. Wu Fei is a composer and guzheng player. She is a native of Beijing and a current Nashville resident. She is a master of the guzheng, the ancient 21-string Chinese zither. At this performance Fei told stories of her upbringing in Beijing, her relentless practice with the guzheng and how she found improv at Mills College and through her time in New York's improv scene. She mixes her Western and Chinese traditional sensibilities with a contemporary, experimental dialect that only Fei can convey in her "down-to-earth," personable way. We thank her and Crosstown Arts for an amazing show!

Louisa Firethorne (maiden name McCuskey) earned her Bachelor's degree from Western Washington University in Bellingham, Wa with a self-designed major from WWU's Fairhaven College, with minors in Physics and Materials Science. The Sonosphere began as her senior thesis project, and the culmination of her self-designed degree (concentration) entitled, 'Transducing Human Consciousness Through Science, Art and Music.'Louisa's deep interest in physics, art, geometry, music, and particularly, the science of resonance, prompted her initial ideas about the Sonosphere as an integrative installation art piece, a 'strange attractor', and a vehicle for the exploration of one's own consciousness. Subsequent physics explorations into the science of cymatics prompted her most recent iteration of the Sonosphere project, a deep plunge into the concept of sound as medicine, and the transition of the Sonosphere as a Vibroacoustic Therapy device.With 2 decades of self-funded research, Louisa's inspired Sonosphere vision integrates everything from 80's sci-fi, to the ancient art of sound healing. Dipping into a deep well of creative mojo, Louisa aims to combine the aesthetic, and the functional into her invention of the Sonosphere and Sonosphere Cymatic Immersive Experience.With the determination to help others on their healing journey, she has relentlessly sought to expand her invention into a more powerful version. The Sonosphere 3.0. is a sonic massage that goes deep into the bones, and resonates the whole body, setting off harmonic fluctuations of standing waves, uniting every cell in vibratory harmony. Louisa has chosen a lifetime of vision, direction and purpose. Louisa lives on Fidalgo Island with her husband and two daughters, who are very much a part of bringing this vision to life.LINKS: WEBSITE: http://www.thesonosphere.comTIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@lady_sonosphereINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/the_sonosphere/FACEBOOK PAGE: https://www.facebook.com/SonosphereEMAIL: louisa@thesonosphere.comResource Links Food Forest Abundance OPUSManifestors Guide.com/ExpandingRealityPromo code EXPANDINGREALITY for an additional 10% off.Start Your Own Podcast HERE!!!
