Jan 30: Tariz Jazeel's Soundscapes

Tariq Jazeel, who works in the Geography Department at UCL has also served on the Governing Body of the Geographical Association and the Council of the Royal Geographical Society. 

On this page he shares a soundscape. This includes references to his favourite pieces of music about which he has written in an academic way.

One of them is the Talvin Singh track 'Butterfly'.

I came across a BBC history of British Asian Music artists.

Tariq Jazeel gave an excellent session at the 2020 GA eConference on this topic, and referred those watching to a Talvin Singh track called 'Butterfly'.

If you haven't heard the track it is here....

Also check out his article from 2005 in Area.
