Today, Radio Dada is very pleased to unveil an original experimental audio piece, titled, “Cross a River”, featuring Oskar Söderberg, Laurel Schuster, Alex Clark, and Jake Gonnella. Written and created by Oskar Soderberg with further edits by Jake Gonnella.
Featuring distorted voices, commercial audio recordings, and captured sounds and noises of all natures, “Cross a River” captures perfectly Radio Dada’s approach to creative and experimental radio theatre that utilizes technology and performance to tell a non-linear story imbued with emotion.
