BACKGROUND
Murcof blends rich orchestral samples with the starkest of digital percussives/crackles - Kimmo Pohjonen stands alone (OK sometimes) onstage with an accordian and a battery of electronics, but it's the soul that comes through - Erki Sven Tuur seems to be doing the same as Murcof and Kimmo Pohjonen, making sounds for today. Imagination, creativity and modernity :-)

I think this is a great three track playlist, showing artists pushing the limits of what we regard as traditional with modern concepts.
