"This tiny coronavirus has showed us in a painful way that humanity is a single organism and that human existence is possible only in relation to other living beings. The notion of “relationship� should be understood as a maxim, as the ability to love."
Arvo Pärt
"Good Vibrations changes lives through music. We work with some of the most vulnerable and hard to reach people in the UK, in secure settings and in the community. We are best known for using the Indonesian gamelan, a magnificent set of brass gongs, xylophones and drums. Our courses support participants to grow in confidence, deepen their communication and social skills and develop more positive self-identities.
We have been running the Resonate project in Glasgow since 2016. We run weekly gamelan music sessions at Campbell House at Gartnavel Royal Hospital for people with: mental health needs; chronic health conditions; and/or disabilities.
To find out more about what we do and how you can support us, please look at our website "

A back to the roots selection from Tenement Sounds - we will be digging through some of our favourite roots, ska, rocksteady and early dubwise records.
Today Subcity Radio is taking part in a media blackout in solidarity with Black Lives Matter protests going on around the world.
We urge our listeners to take part in this blackout and use the time to donate, educate and take action.
We have compiled a list of petitions, fundraisers, educational resources and which is linked here.
Broadcast on Subcity Radio!
For now, we are apart, but radio can bring us together! While our studio is shut, we are still able to broadcast both pre-recorded and live shows while you remain in the comfort of your bedroom. If you don’t currently have a show, we are also going to be accepting selected requests from people that wish to broadcast one off pre-recorded and live broadcasts. The programmes team will have the final say if a one-off show will go ahead to ensure our station content remains as diverse and wide-reaching as it currently is.
All types of broadcast from podcasts, live performances and mixes are encouraged. No radio experience is required, and we will provide as much technical support as possible if you have a good idea for a broadcast.
We have made a short guide to help you put together your own broadcast which can be found in the 'News' tab on the website. Live broadcasts are also equally possible – please contact [email protected] to find out technical requirements for this.
Requirements for pre-recorded shows:
- Shows should ideally be 1-2 hours. Shorter and longer broadcasts will still be considered
- Files are to be 320kbps MP3
- Send files using We-Transfer, Google Drive or Onedrive links
- Email these links to [email protected]
How to record a show:
First create a folder on your computer with all the music or other audio files that you would like to include in your show. There are many ways to download music – Bandcamp, Beatport and Google Play are all good places to start. There are lots of options if you wish to record your own voice or other audio including using a mobile phone microphone. Most phones have a voice recording app already installed. If you have access to a microphone and an interface, here is a guide to record audio into a computer.
To arrange, combine and edit your audio files to create your show, you will need a Digital Audio Workspace (DAW). There are loads of options for DAWs both free and paid for. Audacity (download here) and Reaper (download here) are both free and are a good introduction to audio software. Ableton (download here) offers more advanced features but is paid for (although there is a free trial offered). FL studio or Fruity Loops (download here) is another popular DAW but this is better suited for music production.
There are YouTube tutorials available for each of these programs, but the basics are broadly similar. Each audio file is represented as a waveform that can be arranged in a track on a timeline. Multiple tracks of audio can be added to a timeline to enable sounds to be overlaid. Once the files have been arranged you can then export (or “bounce�) your masterpiece as one MP3 file to be sent to us. Make sure you export the file in the requested format above. Again, tutorials for each of the specific DAWs are available that can help with this.
Feel free to contact our tech team if we can offer any additional assistance at [email protected]
