Audio Archives

Celebrating independent music and the expansive cultural impact of community radio.

Audio Archives marks over 15 years of Carhartt WIP Radio, celebrating independent artists and labels, while honoring the deepening cultural impact of community radio today. Built from a desire to foster connections through music, the project brings together 17 radio stations from across the globe that have built their own local and global community. The release includes a 1,200-page book, also titled Audio Archives, featuring a comprehensive collection of Carhartt WIP Radio broadcasts since 2008, alongside in-depth interviews with the 17 independent radio stations. Accompanying the release is a capsule collection comprising a hooded sweatshirt, two long-sleeve t-shirts, a record bag, and a Teenage Engineering OB-4 Magic Radio.
