BBC Radio 3 Late Junction: Loraine James’s mixtape
Verity Sharp presents a mixtape of cutting edge electronics by producer Loraine James and we bring the outside in with field recordings from around the world.
Cutting-edge producer Loraine James takes on the Late Junction mixtape, showcasing 30 minutes of radical electronics to rouse the spirits. James’s latest album For You And I drew on the sounds of London’s nightlife, fusing grime, jungle and dub into a series of woozy juxtapositions. For this mixtape she throws the net wide with dark industrial club music from Manchester, juke from LA, and Belizean punta from Chicago.
Elsewhere Verity Sharp brings the outside world in, with a field recording of a 100-year-old windmill in Sweden recorded by Graham Dunning, a cacophonous murmuration of starlings recorded on a lawn in Ahmedabad and the sounds of people singing from their balconies in Rome.
Produced by Alannah Chance.
