After 28 months on-air, the Big Sound-Live Train live music recording project is getting a makeover.

The final edition of BSLT (Boy & Bear) will play 6/8. Following that the program is changing to more of a retro format, retaining its focus on Australian music, and changing name to "Recorded Live".

Initial Recorded Live content:
13/8 - Sunnyboys (power/pop); 20/8 - Hermitude (dance/hip hop); 27/8 - The Waifs (folk); 3/9 - Big Scary (rock); 10/9 - Powderfinger (rock); 17/9 - Paul Kelly and The Dots (rock); 24/9 - Something for Kate (rock); 1/10 - Hoodoo Gurus Early 80s (rock); 8/10 - Those Bloody McKennas (rock); 15/10 - Cat Empire 1 (rock/world); 22/10 - Cat Empire 2 (rock/world)

We hope your station will continue to use these high-quality music inserts (approx 15 mins per edition).

Recorded Live will play in the current Big Sound-Live Train timeslot of Wed 17:40 EST, and be available for DDN capture. Order Big Sound-Live Train at the DDN site to ensure capture - the program title will change to Recorded Live for the first edition (13/8).

Abstract
While community broadcasting has been documented for aiding development in the Global South, communities in Uganda engage in narrowcasting and share information using Community Audio Towers (CATs). This challenges our understanding of communication for development media since CATs employ both the one-way and the two-way approaches to ensure survival. Among the crucial areas of CATs that have not been attended to by academic scrutiny is the issue of how CATs sustain themselves financially. To cover that gap, the CAT processes of information gathering, processing and dissemination, are discussed below. The discussion comes from data collected using 10 key informant interviews to show how CATs, platforms that are economically non-viable, are able to survive in myriad economically-oriented media systems in Uganda. Implications of CATs for local community development are herein highlighted.
