ALARM Magazine | Issue #36

ALARM Mag ALARM Magazine #36 is out now, and in it you’ll find my feature on Loop 2.4.3, an experimental percussion duo from Brooklyn. Their album, Zodiac Dust, is a very sedate, subtle exploration of the potential in a drumkit. Rather than revel in explosive pounding, they opt for a smoother, more melodic approach. I have a few more pieces pending for ALARM, probably coming out in the next issue: a feature on Chicago-based jazz vibraphonist and bandleader Jason Adasiewicz and a review of Lightning Bolt’s tremendously awesome Earthly Delights.
