Laraaji - Day Of Radiance

BBC Radio 6 Music - Stuart Maconie's Freak Zone, Laraaji - Day Of Radiance

Ambient zither music produced by Brian Eno tops the bill.

Stuart has angular rock from Theoretical Girls, jazz covers of Aphex Twin, a track from family duo Frank and Moon Unit Zappa, and ambient zither music produced by Brian Eno.

General Freakmaster Maconie guides you through a wide range of delightfully not-normal music. The playlist includes angular rock from Theoretical Girls and jazz covers of Aphex Twin. There's also a track from the family duo Frank and Moonunit Zappa, in honour of Stuart's interview with Frank's other offspring Dweezil on this week's Freakier Zone. 

This week's featured album artist was discovered by Brian Eno busking in New York's Central Park on a homemade electronic zither. He loved the music so much they subsequently made an album together. The result is Ambient Three: Day Of Radiance by Laraaji, a hypnotic, shiny, gorgeous record of softly moving ambient music that was the third of four amibent records Eno released at the time.
