Join Elizabeth Alker with a selection of fresh music from genre-defying artists as we journey through landscapes of ambient and experimental sounds. We’ll hear an ‘undefinable’ medley of sounds; from Saxophonist Alabaster DePlume's expressive and mysterious new project to the marching rhythm and deftly layered samples of choral singing on the latest from Tara Clerkin Trio. Elsewhere, there's tactile and meditatively repetitive soundscapes from Berlin’s Jungstötter and haunting euphonies inspired by crop circles, clairvoyants and standing stones from Bath's Jody Prewett. Produced by Alex Yates A Reduced Listening production for BBC Radio 3 To listen on most smart speakers, just say “ask BBC Sounds to play Unclassified”.
