While listening through my massive backlog of Radiolab podcasts, I came across one story where they interviewed this awesome cellist named Zoe Keating. Basically, she uses her cello and a laptop to compose looping, intricate pieces of music. Be sure to check out Sun Will Set.
Ever find yourself listening to NPR, wishing you could find out what music they’re playing as they transition between stories? Fortunately, they list everything on their Music Interludes page. It helped me find an awesome acoustic guitar album, Notes From Celtistan.
