impulsradio #2 - electronic music
Sendetermin 14.02.2025 06:30 bis 07:30The second episode in our series features electronic and electroacoustic music by young composers from the impuls academy 2025 in Graz. Due to the growing popularity of easy-to-use tools and home-producing audio technology, creating electronic music or blending electronic sounds inta composition today is accessible and popular for music creators of all ages, and it is common to mix a lot of different styles and approaches. In this episode you will hear five pieces by students of the impuls academy that show the diversity and richness of electronic composition today: from short aphorisms to long froms, from electroacoustic works that use purely synthesized sounds, to glitchy and noisy soundscapes, acousmatic musique-concrète-like pieces and compositions that use acoustic instruments and live-electronic sounds. Tune in and enjoy!
