Jlin reimagines Beethoven

Verity Sharp presents an exclusive remix of Beethoven’s Fifth by electronic artist Jlin. Plus Cameroonian disco, sounds of a post-AI world and a tapdance with a sewing machine.

Verity Sharp presents an exclusive Beethoven remix from electronic musician and producer Jlin. To mark Beethoven’s 250th birthday, the Â鶹ԼÅÄ is asking listeners to remix a new recording of his Symphony No. 5, as well as commissioning influential and acclaimed musicians to do the same. Late Junction’s very own remix is by Jlin the Innovator, one of electronic music's most exciting players. A former steelworker in Indiana, Jlin’s sound is grounded in forceful percussion, often credited with bringing the Chicago genre of footwork to a wider audience. An in-demand remixer who has worked with the likes of Björk and Max Richter, her latest release saw her soundtracking a dance work by choreographer Wayne McGregor.

Elsewhere, there’ll be experimental disco from Cameroon’s Jo Bisso from a recent compilation of his dancefloor fillers from the 70s. There’s selections from the new soundtrack to film-maker and multimedia artist Lawrence Lek’s debut film AIDOL, set in a post-AI world where a fading superstar attempts to make her comeback at the 2065 virtual Olympics. Plus, the sounds of a collaboration between Bristol-based producers Eliza Lomas and Sam Francis, who improvised together using a sewing machine and Eliza’s tap-dancing feet.

Produced by Katie Callin.
A Reduced Listening production for Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 3.
