Adam Rudolph
In the liner notes to the album Turning Towards the Light, Adam Rudolph comments on one of his compositions, explaining, “a triple-diminished cosmogram is explored.” Of another track, he notes, “In this orchestral narrative, entities of macro or micro electro-magnetic formulations glow.” Lost yet?
Josh Block
