Nova on Lyric FM

Ever since RTÉ lyric fm's Nova broadcast Boxcutter live session we've continued to tune into the show every Sunday at 8pm.

Nova is RTÉ lyric fm's contemporary music show. It chronicles what's radical and what's conservative, who's established and who's in the avant garde of todays music.

It has a huge range featuring a blend of contemporary classical, electronic, experimental music. On any given night you might expect to hear a Brian Eno, Aphex Twin, Kraftwerk, a Fourtet remix of Steve Reich or older/more obscure names you may not yet have encountered.

We recommend this show for anyone interested in the origins/pioneers of electronic music or perhaps for artists looking for new inspiration. Related to this is "Electrolight", a six part series by Lyric FM which explores the changing face of electronic music over the last 60 years, decade by decade.

The Boxcutter set itself is a dreamy and experimental blend of new and old material. While our gig will be slightly more dancefloor oriented, it nevertheless gives you an idea of his extraordinary range and ability.
