An experimental focus tonight, with a lot of contemporary jazz that slides into electronic experimentalism, contemporary classical and almost-pop songwriting. There are a few beats of the very leftfield sort, and some abstractly beautiful sound-art. I’m premiering two tracks from saxophonist & sound-artist Caroline Davis from her incredible album Fallows, which is out on Ropeadope on March 27th.
Utility Fog teeters on the cusp between acoustic and electronic, organic and digital. Constantly changing and rearranging, this aural cloud of nanotech consumes genres and spits them out in new forms.
Peter Hollo curates each episode around a narrative of genre-plasticity, deep-diving into artist histories, side projects and influences. Challenging sounds are contextualised within musical movements, surprising connections are uncovered, unfairly overlooked works are revisited.
Come on a journey through music in all its ugly beauty.
