BBC - Late Junction 2026 - by Gabriel Francis

"Verity Sharp presents a new improvised encounter, bringing together saxophonist John Butcher and turntablist Mariam Rezaei live in session.
Saxophonist John Butcher began playing free jazz during his university years, before he left behind his academic endeavours in theoretical physics to pursue music. In the years since, Butcher has become a seasoned composer, improviser and collaborator, recognised for his emphasis on a sense of place, explorations with feedback, and unusual acoustics.
He meets turntablist Mariam Rezaei in the Late Junction studio, known for her work across experimental new music, free improvisation, mutant club music and hip-hop. In addition to her mastery of classic turntablist skills, she has pioneered several techniques of her own, manipulating an expansive range of samples in real time."
