XMTR Festival 26: Radio Limbo Hastings
Limbo Tapes/ Pete Hazell (UK 2026)
Limbo Tapes aka Pete Hazell (UK, 2026)
46 min
This atmospheric and darkly playful show celebrates radio as a shape-shifting escape from reality. Radio Limbo presents alternative listening experiences by recycling and remixing audio plunder from a range of broadcast styles and eras. Hosted by Pete Hazell, the listener is guided through a signature montage of imaginary scenes, live sound, and audio curios that reflect, parody and warp familiar signals. At times surreal and dreamlike, other times satirical or theatrical, the show takes themes associated with the venue and treats them as threads to pull at.
