Elizabeth Alker with a late-night journey through new music from today鈥檚 most exciting genre-defying artists.

Join Elizabeth Alker with a selection of fresh music from genre-defying artists as we journey through landscapes of ambient and experimental sounds. This week, we鈥檒l travel back in time via the dungeon-synth textures and medieval ambience of Graham Reynolds鈥 album 鈥楾he Portcullis'; music from an exciting collaboration between acclaimed songwriter Eliza Shaddad and the composer Daniel Sonabend; and another chance to hear the brilliant piece composed and performed by Carmel Smickersgill especially for Unclassified, marking last year鈥檚 centenary of Eric Satie鈥檚 death.

We鈥檒l also hear, of course, music from emerging independent producers whose work plays with orchestral textures and classical form as well as the latest sounds from a new generation of contemporary composers who look to embrace the spirit of rock, pop and electronica.
