There have never been so many initiatives fostering marginalised talent in electronic music and sound, and one such platform is the UK’s Oram Awards. Established in 2017, the Oram Awards is a partnership between The Radiophonic Institute, PRS Foundation & The Daphne Oram Trust, and elevates the work and voices of women, Trans and Non-Binary music creators working in sound innovation, music and related technologies.

Inside this episode, Isobel gets the chance to chat with 2022 winners Kelly Jayne Jones and Amble Skuse to discuss their artistic practice and what winning an Oram Award means to them as women in music. Isobel is also joined by judge and Senior Lecturer of Sonic Arts at Goldsmiths University, Iris Garrelfs, who shares why Daphne Oram is such an inspirational figure and how you can apply for the 2023 awards yourself.
