If anything, Dawn of Midi’s sets are as red-blooded and rhythmic as a seamlessly mixed DJ set, casting spells on crowds in the same way the group’s favorite experimental and electronic acts have for decades.
KALI Trio: The Playful Abstract

by David Bruggink
Nik Bärtsch's Ronin Rhythm Records has become a go-to label for hypnotic groove enthusiasts. Established in 2006, its artists share a focus on uncommon time signatures and post-minimalist composition but interpret them in strikingly different ways.

Foremost among the current roll call, which includes Frenchwoman Eve Risser, Spaniard Agusti Fernandez, and ...

But then again what is music? As defined by Merriam-Webster: it is a science or art of ordering ...
