    Mixtape #61 : Gold

    by 5:4 July 1, 2021 • 07:12
    July 1, 2021 • 07:12

    When i first started putting together the new 5:4 mixtape, my intention – inspired by the sunshine of summer – was to focus on the colour yellow. However, i also allowed gold and orange onto the shortlist as well, and in the end, completely by chance, gold has almost completely…

    by 5:4 March 21, 2021 • 05:00
    March 21, 2021 • 05:00

This attraction to nature extends throughout…

    It’s week 13 in my series of Isolation Mixtapes, which means we’re now halfway through the alphabet. When i began this series it seemed possible that the prospect of 26 mixtapes, unfolding weekly over the course of six months, might well be in keeping with the length of time of…

    February 1, 2018 • 08:22

    As part of 5:4‘s tenth anniversary celebrations, i’m going to be putting out a new mixtape each month throughout 2018. While they’re quite time-consuming to curate and create, they’re also a lot of fun, and it’s been clear for a long time that the mixtapes are a popular feature on the…

    To bring this first Estonia in Focus weekend to a close, some excellent CDs of Estonian contemporary choral music have been released in the last few months. Together they admirably demonstrate the considerable range and richness of compositional thought typical of the country’s new music scene.

    i’ve recently got back from a few days in Tallinn, attending Eesti Muusika Päevad, the Estonian Music Days, the country’s annual celebration of contemporary music. Coming away from my first encounter with the EMD last year, and reflecting on the experience after, left me with mixed feelings. Estonian contemporary music…
