Tapestries and Transformation

Elizabeth Alker presents the latest sounds from the ambient and experimental music worlds including new music by Dave Okumu, Elizabeth Cottern and Martin Heynes.

Elizabeth Alker presents the latest sounds from the ambient and experimental music worlds, including a track from London guitarist, producer and singer Dave Okumu's new album I Came From Love, a record which delves into concepts of transmission and transformation in the context of Black diasporic experience.

Okumu writes: 'As I consciously stand before my ancestors through the medium of this sound world, I proclaim that ‘You survived so I might live.’'

Plus intimate and introspective solo guitar work from Berlin-based composer Martin Heynes and screams of feedback and oscillator pulses sculpted into dissonant forms by Elizabeth Cottern.
