Happy new year! This is our first show of 2023 and the 52nd episode of AIR, an interview podcast series with a different theme each episode.  This month I'm joined by American composer, producer, and vocalist @kaitlynaureliasmith.

Kaitlyn has put out countless well-loved albums which feature her explorations in synthesis and voice, including the famed 2017 record The Kid, 2020’s atmospheric Mosaic of Transformation, and her most recent album, Let’s Turn It Into Sound. Throughout her sonic journey, listening, both with her ears and with her body, has been at the heart of what she does as a musician; hoping that by listening in different and more intentional ways, she can more deeply connect with sound.

In this conversation, we delve into Kaitlyn’s love of deep listening and somatic hearing, and how these rituals help to enlighten her artistry, her creativity and her performances. 

Kaitlyn's EU/UK tour is starting in April 2023, check out her website for more details: https://kaitlynaureliasmith.com/events/

AIR 052 / Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith

Among others the amazing acts of Third Coast Percussion, Pavel MIlyakov and the Estonian duo  Puuluup as described by Robin Danselow (The Guardian)
""There is also room for the quirky and unexpected. Puuluup are an elegantly dressed male duo from Estonia with a gloriously deadpan sense of humour playing the talharpa bowed lyre treated with loops, creating delightfully slinky songs about “agriculture and cross-country skiing”.

AIR is an interview podcast series with a different theme each episode. 

Created in 2017, AIR aims to be something different in the wide world of music journalism. Tired of the usual promotional fluff, host Emma Robertson invites artists, DJs, and musicians to get deep on one topic that inspires them — everything from nature, to film, to spirituality — in the hope that it inspires you, too.

NTS is a global radio platform broadcasting music from over 50 cities around the globe, live 24/7.
