Anachronism is a new program on ASSOY Radio, dedicated to the album as a complete work.
In a listening culture shaped by skipping, playlists, and acceleration, the album can feel out of time—too long, too slow, too demanding. Anachronism leans into this condition. Each episode presents a full-length album played from beginning to end, accompanied by the artist’s own spoken introductions, reflections, or annotations.
Rather than breaking music into fragments, the show treats listening as a durational act and the album as a narrative, spatial, and emotional arc. The artist’s voice does not interrupt the music but moves alongside it—adding context, memory, and process, while allowing silence and continuity to remain intact.
As part of the wider sonic and discursive landscape of ASSOY Radio and the sōydivision platform, Anachronism proposes radio as a shared listening situation: unhurried, attentive, and resistant to the logic of optimization. It is an invitation to stay with a work, to listen in one sitting, and to experience music as something that unfolds over time.
