Shella Invites Infame Radio

Language accessibility: English

The word “shella” comes from Egyptian Arabic slang and means “a group of friends who do things together.” Shella Radio is a Prague-based community radio rooted in the fertile club scene but expanding into public discourse through political talk shows, panel discussions, and more. The audience is invited to join one of the live events with DJ sets or relax in Shella’s listening station at the National Gallery.

As part of the Biennale program, Shella Radio invites you to a number of special music-and-discussion events. On June 21, Shella Radio will host Infame Radio in its Planeta Za garden studio, inviting a special program of lectures and musical performances. Infame Radio is a community radio station from Brno, which, as they state, was created “as an independent response to the need to create a dedicated cultural platform in the city.” To begin, there will be a set by a key member of Infame, elli2ot, followed by a lecture by Julie Dudová. Martin Hudák will then join, speaking about his Brno hardcore label South Moravian Utility Tapes, abbreviated SMUT. The lectures will close with Infame Radio taking over Shella’s broadcast, and the day will end with further sets—live sets by producer Yan and a final b2b set by oolongbru, co-founder of the YUKU label, and Alberta Wawraczem, a community organizer and a key member of Infame Radio.
