Words we are going to hear: Susan Howe with orchestra, Taiwanese poet Hsia Yü mumbling a “Bad Trip”, Norwegian musician and novelist Jenny Hval's prose over cold synth, and John & Yoko calling each other's names, over and over.
We will travel back to an early song by the Canadian indie rock band Destroyer, who are known for their poetic lyrics, and later, a wind song by another Canadian musician, Feist, sung to a bird. There will be the most beautiful Björk accompanied by harp, the latest single by the experimental electronic musician claire rousay, Stereolab’s founding member Lætitia Sadier’s own project, and the forever classic Sade, and more.
In the track played in this episode, Destroyer repeated for 17 times: "(you've got the spirit) don't lose the feeling".
