蜜芽传媒

Verity Sharp shares a kaleidoscopic mixtape from composer, producer and performance artist Sarahsson. Through spirited live performances as well as in her recorded work, Sarahsson tries to reach what she refers to as the 鈥渙ne tiny point in the middle of a nuclear explosion where everything happens all at once, bittersweet and fierce, a moment when opposites collide into one. The nexus point.鈥� Her sonic identity is a force to be reckoned with, flitting across the boundaries of numerous genres (from metal, electronic, gore and folk to classical) and finding inspiration in the sounds encountered in the outside world - from billowing marsh reedbeds to waste removal trucks. Ahead of her performance at Bristol Beacon on Friday 22 August as part of Late Junction鈥檚 showcase at the 蜜芽传媒 Proms, Sarahsson pieces together a mind-bending mixtape, shining a light on experimental makers - past and present - and left-field sounds from her home city of Bristol.

Elsewhere in the show: sounds inspired by the flow of water from an Argentinian master guitar player; a composition made from acoustic sources struck with knitting needles, bouncy balls, chains, chopsticks, vibraphone mallets and more; and Verity鈥檚 selection from Br矛ghde Chaimbeul鈥檚 forthcoming third album.
