The Sound of British Electroacoustic

A deep dive into the world of British electroacoustic music, this playlist brings together pioneers and contemporary artists who blur the lines between electronic manipulation and acoustic sound. From the foundational work of trailblazers like Delia Derbyshire, Daphne Oram, and the BBC Radiophonic Workshop to today’s leading figures like Natasha Barrett and Lucy Railton, it’s a curated snapshot of the UK’s rich and experimental audio landscape.

You’ll find everything from lush acousmatic textures and manipulated field recordings to orchestral collaborations and sound-sculpted compositions. Pieces like "Four Aspects" and "Pulse Persephone" highlight early innovations, while tracks like "Neptune's Children" and "Daily Rituals: III" explore modern electroacoustic expressions. At turns cerebral and immersive, ambient and dissonant, this collection offers a wide lens on the evolving sounds of British experimental music.
