For a "REMIX TREE" of the DURBAN SINGS rough radio mix,
please see: http://www.creativeafricanetwork.com/...
Travel-log of a remix
The DURBAN SINGS rough radio mix was first published on http://www.archive.org in Oct. 2009 (12:47) as part of a "call for contributions" to the project. It tells the/ a story of the DURBAN SINGS audio media & oral history project, a story of local content production: the collective production of history & of media.
project blog: http://durbansings.wordpress.com
"We want the voices to explode all over." The composition makes parts of the process, vision, idea & realization of the DS project heard by re-mixing from the archives uploaded by the participating collectives & from other related on-line archives; while, being at once a precursor, a "rough mix" of the very story it tells. The vision of "free air", audio radio correspondence & collective media productions among people at "grassroots level" are to a large extend still to come and to take place; but -- they are on the move, literally, on the road, growing stronger already "underground". Trained ears may hear the message; and, perhaps, respond.
The soundtrack of the AV trailer is a re-worked & extended version (13:33) of the earlier edit, completed in Durban & Windhoek in Dec. 2009. The trailer owes its name to the audio track it hosts. Video footage of was recorded on a mobile phone at the time of re-editing the mix; it captures a West/ East continental crossing from Swakopmund on the Atlantic Ocean in Namibia, across Botswana and South Africa, via Johannesburg to Durban on the Indian Ocean.
The second editing process began with the London artist Terry Mac (Trunkstore http://www.creativecaribbeannetwork.c... ), a friend & co-producer of the NO-GO-ZONES audio radio project, sending me the audio file of a BBC 4 programme to Durban: "The Reunion"; a special edition produced in Capetown; "Nelson Mandela Release", broadcast in Sep. 2009. Terry Mac asked me in his e-mail what I think about the programme. As an answer, I sent him a "Reunion Mix" which then became a "preface" (first 3mins) & starting point of the re-worked "rough radio mix".
Explore & Use the Archived Audio:
Original, full-length recordings featured & re-mixed in the soundtrack can be accessed, downloaded & used under creative commons share-alike license. They are archived on www.archive.org as part of a conversational journey & audio media "road-work-shops" in the streets of Africa, which began in 2007 with the NO-GO-ZONES audio radio project in South London, continued in Durban South Africa, & recently (2010) in Kenya & Uganda. The clips are archived in series of playlists linked to the projects & their producers with the invitation to global listeners to explore & use the archived recordings. Comments, responses & questions of listeners - in writing or audio - can feed the fire of the conversations & the on-going work of the producer collectives where ever they are. Re-broadcasts or re-mixes can become a starting point for correspondence.
Do get in touch if these words & songs strike a common cord.
Thank you for listening!

info:
An interview of Amanda Wright who is living in Brakpan.
I am interviewing my mother because I want to know a little bit more of her as I don't know so much of her. My mothers name is Amanda Wright she is turning 60 years old on the 31 August 2011. I also want to do a tribute on here because of what she did in her life for us. It's also a way for me to remember all her stories when she is not here. I would like to do an audio CD of her life. Starting from the first memory that she can remember. I find it interesting when she was talking in the past, her experiences as a teacher, hotel slave and as a child running a competition. In the end I am just a spectator of her life.
