Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 1 EnglandLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 1 Wales

In part two of The Art of Noise, Dev from Radio 1's early breakfast show steps right out of his musical comfort zone to explore the live experimental music scene, by heading off to one of the UK's most alternative music festivals - All Tomorrow's Parties.

Held at the Butlins resort in Minehead, All Tomorrow's Parties has just celebrated its tenth anniversary. Featuring bands from Shellac to Sunn o))), Afrirampo to Lightning Bolt, Dev finds himself confronted by a line-up he's never heard of, and sounds he never knew existed.

Follow him on his journey into the weird and the unknown as he explores what makes a band experimental, and at what point music stops being music and just becomes noise.

Featuring interviews with legendary producer Steve Albini, bands including Battles and F*** Buttons, and Kelley Deal from The Breeders. Show less
