OFF: Mixing It

[Chris Gibbs]

Hi ya,

If you are not in the UK don't despair...  All this is (or will be) on
the BBC's web site together with RealTime videos of past performances.

I guess not too many people on the disscussion are regular Radio Three
listeneers;-)
So maybe you don't know about Mixing It.

Mixing It airs 11:00pm - 12:00 Sunday nights and concists of live
experimental/electronic music.  If you want weird its here!  Not just
weird but good live improvisation, past programs have even included Jah
Wobble (also on the bbc web site)

Tonight seems to be mainly provided by Icelandic freaks:
