Industrial memories and free-wheeling jazz

Available for 28 days

Verity Sharp shares sounds and words from Abandon Normal Devices, a nomadic, site-specific experimental multimedia festival that is held in Barnsley at the end of September. Among the highlights are a newly commissioned work from Berlin-based 4D spatial sound collective MONOM (excavating the acoustic memory of Barnsley's industrial past) as well as an extract from Egyptian electronic producer ZULI, who has scored a film documenting the shifting landscapes of the Nile Delta. Elsewhere in the programme: a resurfaced recording from “afro nu-wave muzic” outfit Jon Waine: free-wheeling spiritual jazz courtesy of Finnish group Fågelbörs; and occult music from Thorn Wych, made on instruments carved from the branches of a tree. Produced by Silvia Malnati A Reduced Listening production for BBC Radio 3 To listen on most smart speakers, just say “ask BBC Sounds to play Late Junction”.
