Fall Music Preview ~ Experimental
The creative spirit provides energy and a sense of forward motion in a time of perceived stasis. During the last eighteen months, these sonic innovators have been locked in their labs like Tony Stark in Iron Man. What better time than

Midori Hirano ~ Soniscope

Mirla ~ Solitaire
Solitaire is a glorious and life-affirming album. Mirla (Emily Mirla Harrison) addresses issues of isolation, separation, loss and hope, documenting a period that might be mistaken for 2020-21, but is in fact 1942-44. Drawing sustenance from the past, she uncovers lessons
