Oren Ambarchi鈥檚 Mixtape
Verity Sharp invites open-eared musician Oren Ambarchi to assemble a mixtape and we explore the sound of 鈥楩ar East鈥� reggae, developed by the Chinese-Jamaican community in Jamaica.
Oren Ambarchi is a guitarist, composer and musical polymath with a reputation for deconstructing genre; combining elements of free jazz, rock and contemporary composition. His work hops from modern electronics to minimal improvisation; blistering noise to hushed songwriting, with an open-eared approach that he also brings to his label Black Truffle. For this mixtape he hand picks the most surprising cuts from his collection.
Elsewhere we shine a light on a particular form of 鈥楩ar East鈥� reggae from Jamaica which was developed by Chinese-Jamaican producers on the island, we hear the sounds of forests thinking as devised by Norwegian string duo Vilda & Inga and 鈥榠maginary island music鈥� by duo LAGOSS.
Produced by Alannah Chance.
A Reduced Listening production for 大象传媒 Radio 3.
