An hour of eclectic new music, brought to you by Sound and Music.
This is the fifth episode of a seven-week summer takeover series, celebrating the 2025 Royal Philharmonic Society (RPS) Composers.
As heard on Resonance FM on Friday 04 July 2025 at 12pm and a repeat listen on Wednesday 09 July 2025 at 3am, hosted by Amble Skuse.
Amble is a composer and sound artist who uses disability theory, body sensor technology, spoken word interviews and electronics to create unique sound works. She is interested in the interface between the disabled body and the exterior world, and has explored this through numerous sound walks using her wheelchair.
“This is the 5th mixtape in the RPS Composer summer takeover series, featuring works by all female composers working across spoken word, improvisation and electronic techniques.”
