Small details

Verity Sharp focuses in on the finer points of experimental music, sharing ear-bending sounds from today's most adventurous musicians.

Verity Sharp is at the helm for another spin around the world of experimental music and adventurous listening on BBC Radio 3. This week, the enrapturing ‘pseudo-audiobook’ stylings of Natalia Panzer's new project entitled ‘The loss of small detail’, in which spoken word and poetic fragments interweave with loops and synth samples. Martyna Basta’s latest release, meanwhile, is ‘Winged in Collapse’, a fragile and genre-spanning release which takes in everything from dream pop and sacred music to operatic gestures. And there's music from Lucrecia Dalt and Alex Lázaro, who disassemble the pop idiom, doing strange things to time in the process.
