Radia Show 269 | Klinkende Stad - Sounding City

RADIA

This show from XLAIR  is an impression of the Flemish ‘HAPPY NEW FESTIVAL VAN VLAANDEREN KORTRIJK’ and more precise an impression of the sound walk ‘Klinkende Stad / Sounding City’ (The Finest in Flemish sound art).

The HNF Festival is the successor of the renowned Happy New Ears festival that started in 1996 and came to an end last year.
It has grown into one of the most prestigious sound art festivals around. In 2008 The Wire magazine called it “one of Europe’s premier sound art festivals.”
This year the festival took place from the 24th of April until the 9th of May. Klinkende Stad is best described as a sound walk and consists out of 12 different sound related works by Flemish artists, listed below. Since the works are very dependent on specific locations and are very difficult to record or grasp for radiophonic purposes, we tried to make a mix of information, description and sound suggestion.
