To celebrate International Women鈥檚 Day, Stuart looks back on the avant-garde composer and vocalist鈥檚 epic and emotional 1981 album Dolmen Music. The American performer, producer, and all-round unclassifiable artist鈥檚 record centres around ritualistic beats and repetitive wordless phonetic sounds that explore the voice鈥檚 elasticity, fragility and ability to change. Sounding at once ancient and modern, the strange visceral sounds of Dolmen Music has been described as 鈥渇olk music for the whole world鈥�.

Elsewhere on the programme, playful and mellow Taiwanese math rock, eerie and foreboding saxophone arrangements and ethereal experimental electronic and pseudoclassical piano mutations. Plus, tracks from Freak Zone鈥檚 favourite Nico, Laurel Halo and Laurie Anderson amongst others.
