The Two Supers
Verity Sharp explores two of the UK’s most exciting experimental music and arts festivals, reflecting on Supersonic 2022 and looking forward to Supernormal taking place in August.
Verity Sharp celebrates the experimental edges of the UK’s summer festival season. Verity reflects on the Birmingham-based experimental music and arts festival Supersonic with live tracks recorded at this year’s festival from Divide and Dissolve and Richard Dawson. We also look ahead to the 10th edition of Oxfordshire festival SUPERNORMAL taking place in August with a lineup including the likes of Kenyan rapper MC Yallah with producer Debmaster, viola player and vocalist Alison Cotton and French trio Société Étrange.
Elsewhere in the show, a searing high-speed gqom, techstep and footwork-inspired production from London-based producer Okzharp and more field recordings sent in by Late Junction listeners capturing the sounds of summer.
