Welcome to Episode 2 of Radio Resistance: Tennessee Experimental! This hour features the music and story of guest artist Michael Hix. Michael Hix is a composer whose music incorporates synthesizers and electronics to build dynamic structures that evolve over time, delving into the human condition and the metaphysical dimension. His work draws upon classical minimalism, sacred music, analog techno & house as well as popular music. In this episode, Hix talks about the profound influence William Basinski and his artist collective Arcadia had on his personal creative journey– as well as the unique culture of collaboration and experimental “jamming” in Nashville.
Plus music by Michael Hix’s creative influences: Pep Llopis, Ryuchi Sakamoto and Carl Stone.
