Quadeca makes genre-defiant music that bends experimental hip-hop, neo-psychedelia, alternative R&B, pop, bossa nova, and more to his whims. Over the years, he transitioned from a career in content creation to a more personal artistry. He started out making videos where he replicated the styles of various popular rappers, eventually parlaying this viral online content into attention for his own original music. Quadeca replaced the trends and tropes of commercial rap that made up his earlier work with a sharpened focus on musicianship, melody, and atmospheric songwriting on his 2022 album I Didn't Mean to Haunt You. The critically acclaimed 2024 mixtape Scrapyard continued in this experimental direction, touching on everything from Björk-indebted electronica to shoegaze to emo rap. Quadeca's fourth proper studio album, Vanisher, Horizon Scraper, appeared in 2025.

Edda Glass and her long-time collaborator Max Hatt have “forged a unique sound,” says NPR’s Larry Groce. Their alternative musical universe stretches effortlessly from award-winning original material to reinventions ranging from “Wichita Lineman” to “Girl from Ipanema” to “Falling Grace.” Edda’s unmistakable voice and evocative lyrics draw audiences into the immersive textures of Max’s guitar and compositions, creating a cinematic soundscape that resonates like folk, harmonizes like jazz, and grooves like bossa nova.

Ann Powers of NPR Music tags it “Beautiful… #chills” while Nels Cline (Blue Note, Wilco) finds it “subtly poignant, elegantly funky, and haunting without trying to be.” They have been presented by NPR, PBS, NYC’s Lincoln Center, DC’s Kennedy Center, and Wilco's Solid Sound Festival.

“Here’s to life” Fans around the world can be found singing the chorus of the Roger Clyne-penned fan favorite “Mekong” and toasting their glasses in unison to celebrate life through rock-n-roll. But the inspiration for the song dates back to the time Roger went to Taipei, Taiwan, as a college student to teach English during the day and busk with his guitar at night for money.

Today, as Clyne prepares to release his 11th studio album, he continues to transform his life experiences, inspirations, observations and his own muses into timeless music. And whether he’s wearing his Converse high tops, boots or sandals, Clyne’s blend of punk rock, americana, indie-pop and mariachi influences have made him, drummer PH Naffah, guitarist Jim Dalton and bassist Nick Scropos — collectively known as Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers.

“The music…fitted the guitar so well that, if you didn’t know better, you would have sworn they were written for them. They fitted the instrument absolutely beautifully in these transcriptions and Feuillâtre played them with such a lovely sense of legato and an understatedly gentle dynamic that, by the time the interval began, I found myself in something approaching a state of zen.”
