BBC Radio 3 Late Junction: Dream on …!
Late Junction’s month-long season traversing the world of dreams continues as Verity Sharp shares a unique commission from producer, vocalist and DJ Coby Sey.
In collaboration with the artist Sam Potter and his AI dream machine, Late Junction is spending June delving into our communal subconscious. Having been fed the dreams of Late Junction listeners, the AI has created new texts which we’ve given to a selection of composers to transform into new music. This week, south-east London’s Coby Sey shares his interpretation of one of our communal dreams.
Elsewhere there’s plenty of new releases, from the frenetic hip hop of Niger’s Mamaki Boys to the meditative minimalism of the Powers / Rolin Duo from Ohio. Plus, a brand new reimagined soundtrack to the 1972 Soviet sci-fi film Solaris from Kevin Richard Martin, aka The Bug.
