For the Obsessives.
The Purists.
The Ones Who Dive Deep.
No algorithms. No compromise. No shallow ambient.
From La Monte Young to Holly Herndon.
From Darmstadt School to contemporary electroacoustic experimentation.
This is where the real sound lives.
OUR LISTENERS
Who This Is For
THE EXPERIMENTALIST
You crave the ambient, the ethereal, the obscure.
You know what you like. You want artist names and movements, not algorithms.
The "What was that?" moment is your hit.
This is your space.
THE CREATIVE PROFESSIONAL
You compose, design sound, create music.
Use Frozen Cottage as research. As sonic vocabulary. As soundtrack to deep focus.
Deep Listening Sessions (3-6 AM): Perfect for focused work.
Electronic Sculpture (6-9 PM): Research and synthesis.
THE CURIOUS NEWCOMER
You're new to experimental sound. Maybe you've heard of La Monte Young.
Maybe you've listened to Eliane Radigue and wondered what else is out there.
You're in the right place. No gatekeeping. No pretension.
Start with Monday 6-9 AM (Morning Resonance) or Tuesday 9 PM-12 AM (The Long Fade).
OUR MISSION
Why We Exist
Frozen Cottage FM exists because the deep listeners deserve better. Not playlists assembled by engagement metrics. Not "ambient" that sounds like a spa lobby. A station built by an obsessive, for obsessives — where every programming decision is made by ear, not by data.
Every Track, Intentional
56 distinct programming blocks. Drone, ambient, neo-classical, sound art, avant-garde. From La Monte Young to Holly Herndon. Nothing is here by accident.
168 Hours. Zero Interruptions.
No ads. No sponsors. No algorithmic insertions. Just continuous, uncompromising experimental sound — every hour of every day.
Every Detail, Audible
320kbps streaming with no compression compromises. You hear what the artist intended. Built for critical listening.
The Discovery Moment
That instant when an unknown artist stops you mid-task and demands your full attention. We program for that moment. Every block is designed to deliver it.
THE CURATOR
Who's Behind the Curation
"I built this station because I spent 20 years searching for one that played what I actually wanted to hear. It didn't exist. So I made it."
Curated by Duncan Hendy, artist-composer with 20 years of experience in experimental music, audiovisual installations, and sound design. His work includes BBC-licensed planetarium installations, collaborations with BAFTA/Emmy-winning filmmakers, and performances broadcast across 19 countries.
Frozen Cottage Records brings independent experimental works to the global audience. The radio station curates from this archive and beyond, maintaining editorial integrity as curator first, label owner second.
