Sonic Horizons

Join us on a journey through landscapes of ambient and experimental sounds as Elizabeth Alker offers up a selection of fresh music from genre-defying artists. Expect to hear from emerging independent creators whose work plays with orchestral textures and classical form as well as the latest from a new generation of contemporary composers whose output is infused with the spirit of rock, pop and electronica.

This week: poet Moor Mother intones over a patchwork of minimalist textures woven by marimba and vibraphone-player Masayoshi Fujita; Australian drummer-composer Lawrence Pike reimagines Orpheus’ trip to the underworld; seasoned rockers Seefeel return with another peerless stretch of shoegaze; and L’Rain soundtracks a horror film.
