NPR Music profiled experimental musician and composer Lucrecia Dalt.

Dalt has become one of modern music's most fascinating chameleons. Across a series of albums released since 2005, the musician has occupied many forms, from creator of off-kilter indie pop (released under alias The Sound of Lucrecia) to purveyor of esoteric Colombian field recordings. A pair of records on Human Ear Music solidified an avant-electronic sound before her move to New York-based label, RVNG Intl. prompted more reinvention — spoken word poetry on 2018's Anticlines, atmospheric horror on 2020's No Era Sólida. On ¡Ay!, which translates as "Oh!," Dalt has recorded her most dramatic transformation yet: an album of lushly arranged "bolero sci-fi," one that fuses tropical music, jazz and electronics but which — she makes clear — is no "fusion" record.

Ernaux’s triumph marks the London-based independent publisher’s second Nobel prize win in four years, after Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk won it in 2019. As Fitzcarraldo also now publishes Elfriede Jelinek and Svetlana Alexievich, that’s four Nobel-winning authors who are published by this small press, with its team of six full-time employees who all “do a bit of everything” from an office in south-east London that used to be a warehouse and nightclub.
