First Light's Third Space #8 - KMRU & Beau Beaumont - 16th May 2022

Each month, First Light Records invites two artists to take an unplanned journey with a microphone around their city to curate an hour-long mix. Each show captures the unique sounds of a city from each artist's perspective, through music and found sound.

This month's very special episode of Third Space pairs two forerunners of the contemporary ambient scene, Nairobi-born, Berlin-based KMRU and Liverpool's Beau Beaumont.

Prodigious and fast-rising star of the underground electronic community KMRU takes the reins for the first half of the show, exploring the sonic character of Nairobi through his vast library of field recordings and luscious synth meditations.

Meine Nacht curator Beau Beaumont (fka Breakwave) takes over for the second hour, premiering a piece called 'L8' - a journey into the vibrant city of Liverpool through the lens of her fine-tuned creative practice.
