Product details
Airwaves celebrates 100 years of radio history through great and not-so-great broadcast speeches, featuring many key figures of the 20th century. Their spoken intonation and rhythm drives the melodies and rhythms of the music, which frames each speaker as if they were singing, without altering their recording. This is a journey back to 1901 through the monumental events of the noisy century.
