HEY, VENUS! RADIO is an analog sound collage chronicling epiphanies in music, literature, scientific phenomena—and everything in between. 

Each episode concludes with a mixtape from the archive; from Ethereal wave to Czech pop-rock, jazz, classical and Ethiopian funk.

Ingredients: lava-moss sanctuaries, daffodils on a train, behavioral traits explained, love myths & methodologies set ablaze, and the lost art of spontaneity. Headphones recommended —for optimal auditory surrender. 

A HISTORY OF…

What began as an obsession with Indonesian trees and the translating of antiquarian miscellany, Hey Venus Radio took shape —during the early spring of 2019 an ever so curious archivist took her cassette tapes full of research and started to transfer…one by one. What slowly erupted was a collaboration with teachers and writers who were also on the search for a place to confess. And, a place to call home amidst a crumbling world.

Hey, Venus! Radio offers playful methodologies for all over-thinkers out there; whirling around the Ethos of life’s brazen melodious abyss. Meticulous vignettes invite vegetal affections (or a deliberate proboscis).
