dangerous sounds

Dangerous Sounds is a podcast series in 8 episodes telling the story of how American music impacted the world and has helped shape society and the music we listen to today. From the time when banjos and saxophones were a threat to the bourgeoisie, leading up to the time in the 50s and 60s where the small state of Denmark became a world center for jazz.

The Danish version of Dangerous Sounds named "Farlige Toner" won the Prix Audio Award for best music program of 2021.
