Italian composer Caterina Barbieri is growing on me. She has spent the best part of a decade breaking apart the rigid structures of electronic music, using advanced, idiosyncratic techniques to build bridges between academic experimental, dance and pop landscapes. Barbieri’s music sounds as if it has a life of its own, endlessly expanding and transmuting until it’s able to develop its own rules and gestures. Her latest album, ‘Myuthafoo’  teases an ecosystem where technology and biology are intertwined, and where the past, present and future are part of the same essential narrative.
