The first episode of June featured mostly new music I learned of since I started producing XEN RADIO — Elk Minister, Veli Kujala, and Elaine Walker are recent additions to my own awareness of xenharmonic music. And they complemented the music I had known about for a while, such as Cage’s Solos for Voice and the King Gizzard tracks.
