Composer Mikel Rouse emerged from the downtown Manhattan scene of the 1980s, making multimedia "song cycles" that mixed the minimalist styles of Philip Glass, Michael Nyman and Steve Reich with music inspired by the pop and roots music that he heard on the radio in his youth.  His newest exploration, Gravity Radio, tunes in to the zeitgeist, mixing kaleidoscopic multichannel video with sounds from the AP Newswire, a string quartet, short wave radio frequencies, and songs by Rouse’s band to create an otherworldly environment.  Describing the culture we live in, Rouse communicates its complexity and, like the force of gravity that keeps us grounded, evokes its intangible mystery.  

“A composer many believe to be the best of his generation.” – The New York Times
