Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith's Listening Chair
Elizabeth Alker invites Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith to the Unclassified Listening Chair to select a track that transports her elsewhere.
Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith is a perfect fit for the Unclassified Listening Chair, with a training in classical composition at Berklee that led her into a Buchla-fuelled career in electronic and experimental music. Shifting tone and tempo so that dissonance, transcendence and pin-sharp pop playfully overlap, she鈥檚 never content to stay in one sonic space for too long. The track that she for the Listening Chair that has the power to take her elsewhere is a classic from Four Tet that she played on repeat at a point of personal discovery.
Elsewhere in the show, Elizabeth offers up a vibrant selection of fresh music from genre-defying artists who take us on a journey through landscapes of ambient and experimental sounds.
