Fifth World w/ Ian Kim Judd - Live from Nowadays - 22nd October 2025

A riff on Jon Hassell's _Fourth World_ series. Where Hassell focused on creating ritual music of potential societies that _didn't_ exist; Ian Kim Judd seeks to evoke the notion of potential utopian societies that _could_ exist. In these times of global instability and uncertainty, Fifth World seeks to posit an alternative, with scenes from an optimistic future.

From the host: "Live from my set at Nowadays in NYC on October 16, 2025. Greatest club in the world. Shout out to Naff and Car Culture for having me. Thursday night ambient party <3"
