New Sounds

#4959, Some Songs

Episode Summary

Listen to a song from English musician, singer, and poet Benjamin Clementine along with a piano and vocal version of Peter Gabriel’s song, “Here Comes the Flood” from Robert Fripp’s Exposure. There’s also trio music from Anglo-Polish singer and composer, violinist and pianist Alice Zawadzki, together with long-term collaborators Fred Thomas (piano, drums, vielle) and Misha Mullov Abbado (double bass). Listen to music, recorded in the studio from New York singer and pianist Ed Pastorini, whose eerie ballads and more aggressive works walk the line between popular song, art song, jazz, and improvisation. Then, hear Montréal’s Black Ox Orkestar, who connect current issues with the legacy of modernist Yiddish poetry and song. Plus, a song with swirling strings from Grenadian-Canadian musician Kaia Kater's latest album, Strange Medicine, along with a song by Anohni and the Johnsons, and more. - Caryn Havlik Program #4959, Some Songs (First aired 12/17/2024) ARTIST: Benjamin ClementineWORK: I Won't Complain [1:00]RECORDING: At Least for NowSOURCE: Universal MusicINFO: Available at Spotify, AppleMusic, YouTube, Amazon.com ARTIST: Ed Pastorini WORK: Strange Lures [3:28] RECORDING: Live, 4/12/2018 SOURCE: This performance not commercially available.  INFO: The song appears on the record, Strange Lures. edpastorini.bandcamp.com ARTIST: Gabriel KahaneWORK: Underberg [4:16]RECORDING: Gabriel KahaneSOURCE/INFO: https://gabrielkahane.bandcamp.com/album/gabriel-kahane ARTIST: Robert Fripp / Peter GabrielWORK: Here Comes the Flood [4:07]RECORDING: Exposure (First Edition)SOURCE: EG RecordsINFO: Available at Spotify, AppleMusic, YouTube, Amazon.com ARTIST: Benjamin ClementineWORK: I Won't Complain [4:40]RECORDING: At Least for NowSOURCE: Universal MusicINFO: Available at Spotify, AppleMusic, YouTube, Amazon.com ARTIST: Anohni and the JohnsonsWORK: Hope There's Someone [4:21]RECORDING: I Am a Bird NowSOURCE: Rough TradeINFO: Available at Spotify, AppleMusic, YouTube, Amazon.com ARTIST: Black Ox OrkestarWORK: Viderkol (Echo) [5:34]RECORDING: Everything ReturnsSOURCE: ConstellationINFO: blackoxorkestar.bandcamp.com ARTIST: Lee FeldmanWORK: Me and My Sara Remaining [3:54]RECORDING: I've Forgotten EverythingSOURCE: Urban MythINFO: leefeldman.bandcamp.com ARTIST: Alice Zawadzki, Fred Thomas, Misha Mullov-AbbadoWORK: Gentle Lady [4:44]RECORDING: Za GóramiSOURCE: ECM RecordsINFO: ecmrecords.com ARTIST: Ebe OkeWORK: To Feast at Night [3:04]RECORDING: ValorSOURCE: https://soundcloud.com/ebeokeINFO: https://ebeoke.be/ ARTIST: Kaia KaterWORK: Often as the Autumn [3:43]RECORDING: Strange MedicineSOURCE: Free Dirt RecordsINFO: https://kaiakater.bandcamp.com/album/strange-medicine ARTIST: ClogsWORK: Last Song (feat.
