Take 5

• Take 5 with TV On The Radio

  Hearing TV On The Radio talk about music is as fun as it sounds. When the New York band first emerged they were like nothing we’d heard before. A mash of genres and sounds and for many, the sound of tomorrow, today.10 years on from their last album, the band are back on the road again. And on their first visit to Australia in a decade, they joined Zan Rowe to Take 5. It’s the only interview they gave while here, and they really went in on the theme of 'future sounds from the past'. Want to dig into the brains of Tunde Adebimpe, Kyp Malone, and Jaleel Bunton? You’re about to fall into a wormhole. This is a wild and wonderful ride with three of the most intriguing and passionate music minds of our time.TVOTR's song choices:1.Suzanne Vallie – 'River of Angels' Wings' (unreleased)2.Pharoah Sanders – 'Izipho Zam'3.Sun City Girls – 'The Flower'4.Hildur Guðnadóttir – 'Melody of Not Knowing'5.Jehovah’s Princess – 'F(X)'00:00 Introduction to the Podcast00:35 TV on the Radio: A Decade Later02:07 Reflecting on the Past and Present04:57 Take 5 theme: Future Sounds from the Past05:05 SONG 1: Suzanne Vallie – 'River of Angels' Wings' (unreleased)11:13 The Influence of Pharaoh Sanders11:33 SONG 2: Pharoah Sanders – 'Izipho Zam'17:59 Sun City Girls and Their Impact20:06 SONG 3: Sun City Girls – 'The Flower'25:15 SONG 4: Hildur Guðnadóttir – 'Melody of Not Knowing'30:59 SONG 5: Jehovah’s Princess – 'F(X)'35:18 Conclusion and Farewell
