A decade of adventurous music

After a decade writing about music, Jennifer Lucy Allan surveys the defining moments in adventurous music of the decade and looks forward to the best to come in 2020.

As we stand on the edge of a new decade, Jennifer Lucy Allan looks back at the defining moments in adventurous music over the last ten years. We take a trip from the Chicago footwork of DJ Rashad and RP Boo to Newcastle鈥檚 finest Richard Dawson via the pioneering music of West Africa on the Sahel Sounds label. Elsewhere we feature under the radar field recordings you may have missed, including the sound of Adrian Rew鈥檚 Slot Machine recordings and Enst Karel鈥檚 Swiss Mountain Transport Systems as well as the medieval radicalism of Laura Cannell.

Produced by Alannah Chance.
