Dirges, ghosts, nightingales
Jennifer Lucy Allan serves up 90 minutes of ear-bending sounds for adventurous listeners, from psychedelic dirges, electronic odes to nightingales, and poetic reflections on loss.
Jennifer Lucy Allan serves up 90 minutes of ear-bending sounds for adventurous listeners. There’s obscure heavy dirges from a new compilation of rare psych rock by Los Angeles label Now-Again Records, and fresh rudimentary machine rhythms from Osaka-based electronic artist Kopy. There’ll be new work from Bristol sound artist Kathy Hinde made to draw attention to the declining population of nightingales, released to mark the hundredth anniversary of a 1924 ´óÏó´«Ã½ broadcast of a wild nightingale singing with Beatrice Harrison’s cello.
Plus an exclusive chance to hear Ghost Dance, a new collaborative polyvocal piece made by poet Emily Berry and composer Owen Duff, in which radiophonic textures offer explorations into memory and grief.
