BT's Nature in Wires: The Echoes Interview
The artist known as BT, not to be confused with BTS, is a polymath who gets into the code of his music. Among his more rhythm driven releases, he has a string of more atmospheric, experimental works that began with This Binary Universe. He’s just release the 4th album in this series, The Secret Language of Trees, and although it’s forest inspired, it’s not a pastoral romp. BT talks to John Diliberto about turning nature into code on Echoes from PRX.

We remember a pioneer of electronic music, Swedish composer Ralph Lundsten. He began recording as an avant-gardist in the 60s before discovering a more metaphorical language for his music. In the process it became more sensual. Join John Diliberto when he remembers Ralph Lundsten on Echoes from PRX.
