Crucial Listening #14: Shiva Feshareki

Ever-ascending love, walls of bass, deep listening on the Northern line. The London-based composer/experimental turntablist discusses three important compositions.

Shiva’s picks:

1) James Tenney – For Ann (Rising)
2) Pauline Oliveros – Rattlesnake Mountain Proving Grounds
3) Photek – Ni Ten Ichi Ryu

You can check out Shiva’s work on Soundcloud, and keep up to date with her latest happenings on Facebook. Be sure to tune into her excellent New Forms radio show on NTS too.

Crucial Listening is also available as a podcast.
