Afrodeutsche’s Listening Chair

Elizabeth Alker presents eclectic music by a new generation of composers. This week, Afrodeutsche is in the listening chair with a track that transports her to another place.

Elizabeth Alker presents eclectic ambient music by a new generation of composers, moving through electronic and post-classical recordings – and relishing the spaces in between.

This week, she invites Afrodeutsche to sit in the listening chair, select a track that transports her to another place and describe how it takes her there. A future-thinking composer, producer and DJ based in Manchester, Afrodeutsche’s own music combines playful melodies and techno beats with a deep appreciation of film soundtracks.

Also in the show, Elizabeth features a new single from the Scottish post-rock band Mogwai and an expansive and meditative new piece by the singer-songwriter Peter Broderick.
