The winter solstice is here and we're marking it with a world exclusive: an EP of new music by Roger Robinson and Richard Skelton, available immediately to Sound & Vision subscribers. Darran Anderson talks to the artists about their unique collaboration

Ahead of performances at Aldeburgh's Faster Than Sound and the North East's AV Festival, he speaks to Joseph Burnett about place, poetry and the glacial evolution of his musical practice
