African Sonic Research

African Sonic Research is a multimodal project aiming to explore the relationship between sound, identity and experimentation throughout the African diaspora. The project currently holds a residency on Oroko Radio, an internet radio station broadcasting from Accra, Ghana.

Through focused selections, African Sonic Research aims to create a space for listening & reflection. The show’s bi-monthly broadcast includes a variety of ambient and jazz-focused compositions, as well as field recordings, improvisational music and more. African Sonic Research is guided by an exploration of sound, text, and visual media, with the intent of connecting the many strands of Black and Afrodiasporic sonic expression.

Tracklists, show recaps and more can be found on this site, and Instagram.

The show’s archived mixes are available on oroko.live and Soundcloud.
