The Invisible Shelter

The Invisible Shelter is a monthly Sunday morning show that explores music singularities and boundaries from the globe, pointing to certain parts of the map; maybe a calendar event or a particular instrument; perhaps some ephemera record label that is off the radar. Expect all kinds of music you would like to hear on a Sunday morning: folk songs, ambient explorations, cosmic sonorities, contemporary soundscapes, field recordings, ethnographic and the branches that might come out of that categories
