Geometry of Sound

Elizabeth Alker with a late-night journey through new music from today’s most exciting genre-defying artists.

Join Elizabeth Alker with a selection of fresh music from genre-defying artists as we journey through landscapes of ambient and experimental sounds. This week, she shares the gorgeous new track Pearl Cloud Song from Norwegian artist Juni Habel; new work form Andrew Wasylyk featuring the unmistakable voice of Stuart Murdoch from Belle and Sebastian; and for dog lovers, a special treat - a track from Ann Eysermans built around the barks and whimpers of her own pet dog. Elsewhere, Elizabeth offers the most exciting new music from emerging independent producers whose work plays with orchestral textures and classical form as well as the latest sounds from a new generation of contemporary composers who look to embrace the spirit of rock, pop and electronica.
