KMRU's Listening Chair

Elizabeth Alker shares new tracks from the world of ambient music, and KMRU is in the Listening Chair to select a favourite piece that transports him to another place.

Berlin-based Kenyan sound artist KMRU, known for his visceral ambient sound-worlds that are both soothing and arresting, sits in the Listening Chair to select a track that transports him to another place. Elsewhere, in a show first broadcast in November 2022, Elizabeth Alker shares live recordings from the enigmatic Sarah Davachi who teases out new textures from a church organ; plus the playful and subversive music of Pierre Henry, and the time-shifting sound-layers of electronic producer Stefan Betke.
