It’s Women’s History Month. We’ll survey women electronic musicians from pioneers like Wendy Carlos, Delia Derbyshire & Suzanne Ciani to contemporary artists like Lisa BellaDonna & Rena Jones.
March brings us a CD of the Month from Falling You, the project of John Michael Zorko who has been crafting deep, moody dream pop tracks with a bevy of different singers for 3 decades.
On a Slow Flow Echoes, music by Klangwelt from his album, Second Nature. The German electronic artist sheds some of his space music, sequencer roots in an exhilarating release.
Music by London Grammar. The British duo, fronted by the incredible voice of Hannah Reid, have an album called The Greatest Love. It takes them in a more cinematic, John Barry direction.
On the next Echoes, music from New Age diva, Marya Stark. She teams up with multi-instrumentalist Daniel Berkman playing Kora, Cello and Ondomo. Their album is Underground River.
Settle in for another night of Long Tracks on Echoes. We’re going to hear a modular exploration from Steve Roach, an ambient track by Pantha Du Prince, and something from Lisa BellaDonna.
On the next Echoes music from the psychedelically-inclined artist, Washed Out. That’s Ernest Weatherly Greene Jr, and his album is Notes from a Quiet Life. It always seems quiet on Echoes.
Music by Trentemøller. This release took a less electronic turn and features singer Disa Jakobs from Iceland. The album is Dreamweaver. We weave your dreams on Echoes.
We go on a Quest for the Runestone on the next Echoes. That is the tile of David Arkenstone’s album returning to his fantasy-laden orchestral sound with a lot of Celtic touches.
Julianna Barwick and Mary Lattimore come together for an album of harp, voice and synthesizer that draws inspiration from cathedrals and improvisations.
