Lucy Liyou’s mixtape

Verity Sharp shares a mixtape from Philadelphia-based sound collagist Lucy Liyou, alongside bells that chime with the tides and previously unreleased music from Ali Farka Touré.

Verity Sharp shares our latest Late Junction mixtape, which this time comes courtesy of Philadelphia-based musician and sound collagist Lucy Liyou. Bringing together field recordings, audio samples from memes, text-to-speech generated audio, synthesizers and acoustic piano, Lucy Liyou’s work captures snapshots in time, channelling their Korean-American lineage and personal experiences of familial relationships into distinctly-original musical offerings. The results are often disorienting and surreal sonic patchworks, taking inspiration from a range of sources such as Korean TV dramas, audiobooks and Pansori, a minimalist style of Korean folk opera.

Elsewhere in the show, we hear a recording of bells that chime in accordance with the rise and fall of the tides, and a previously unreleased track from a new posthumous album by Malian musical pioneer Ali Farka Touré.
