DOG FM is the London-based duo of field recordist Oliver Chapman and poet Phoebe Eccles. Combining Chapman’s seemingly banal snapshots of a family car journey with Eccles’ fantastic, reflective spoken verse, DOG FM deftly transports the listener through a series of uncanny and oft-times bizarre audio travelogs where tension and expanse alternate to disorientating effect. By exploring the dynamics of a typical close-quarters family exchange, and with repeated use of ‘canine’ annotation, Chapman reimagines the car as both a confine and a means of escape, with Eccles’ verse acting as thematic glue, bonding memory, dream and textural reference to the road map. DOG FM brings a multifaceted lens over a commonplace event, exploding our expectations, and allowing us to surrender the wheel —and our fate— to kismet outcomes.
