Future Pop: O Nata LUX
21.11.25On this week’s Future Pop show, titled O Nata LUX, I use ROSALÍA’s ‘classical pop’ record as a starting point to explore other music written about or related to female saints from my experiences as a child & teenager studying classical music. Rather than giving a deep analysis heralding the record via the means that most other publications are doing right now, I use it as an opportunity to explore the ‘anti-algorithmic/dopamine’ inspired elements of her record within classical, choral and religious traditions, given I’m still unsure of how to make sense of the record and how much I agree with everyone else on its overt radicalism. Expect music from Thomas Tallis, Hildegard von Bingen, Caroline Shaw, Benjamin Britten and more.

Future Pop
Future Pop explores how popular music and experimentalism combine in nuanced ways to create sonic worlds informed by rich cultural tapestries and visions of the future. Spanning the work of Stockhausen to SOPHIE, Future Pop is dedicated to showcasing radical pop music across history and shining a light on a style of music that is regularly disregarded by critics due to its existence within commercial spaces.
