Greetings Travellers of SCG Receptor Interrolyst and Chrono Receptor ranks and higher,
Greetings Traveller,
in this instalment we’re fleshing out the S that stands for ‘speculative’ in ‘speculative fiction’, as our poem and short story show us opposite sides of the great divide between life and death.
Also as a special treat we’re proud to present you with a sonic experience that’s well worth cracking out your posh headphones for. Our audio drama, Republic of Davidpresents a scenario akin to hell, or possibly heaven if you’re extremely far along the narcissism scale.
Our music this week is a dark synthwave piece that serves as the closing music to both the audiodrama and the podcast itself, so perfectly does it lend itself to both situations.
If you appreciate the extra effort of the podcast, could I encourage you to look at the Soundwave specific levels on our Patreon?It’s less than a big cup of coffee.
In fact, why not go to your favourite coffee shop, listen to this with a brew, and marvel at how comparatively inexpensive our Soundwave Patreon levels are compared with what you’ve just ordered? Perhaps even become a Chrono Receptor or Receptor Interrolyst while you’re there and know you can head back the next week and make it a tradition… mmmmmmmm coffee and sci-fi…

Welcome, Traveller, to this first proper episode of the Shoreline of Infinity podcast Soundwave.
In this opening episode we’ve got superior science fiction from across the art forms.
Our spoken word this week is linked by death and starlight.
We’ve got the haunting and poignant story The Starchitect, written by Barry Charmon and narrated by Sue Gyford.
That’s followed by some sci-fi poetry in the form of the deceptive Starscape by JS Watts, narrated by Debbie Cannon.
Sonic Space makes its debut, hosted by me, RJ Bayley, in which I’m interviewing the award winning author Anne Charnock.
We’re also rounding the episode off with some Japanese SF inspired music as we open the Nuclear Blast doors and listen to one of the giants of symphonic metal.
However you choose to listen to this episode, I hope you love it as much as I do. Probably won’t though, I put it together.

Welcome traveller, to Episode Zero of Soundwave, a science fiction podcast brought to you by Shoreline of Infinity.
We thought we’d give you a Christmas treat before the first season kicks off proper in January.
In this episode you can hear what will be backbones of the podcast with audio stories, as well as a festive audio drama by our own dramatists, the Infinitesimals.
I your host, RJ Bayley, invite you to strap on your very finest pair of headphones, pour yourself your favourite drink and pull up your comfiest armchair next to the most questionably large fire you can build, and join us for the start of something most excellent.
If you celebrate Christmas, have a very merry one, and if you don’t, please accept our wishes with the sentiment which they’re meant, from your new SF friends, Soundwave.
~ RJ Bayley
