...band, elements of both dance and pop music inflect their work. Songs such as “Atlantis to Interzone” and “Forgotten Works” feature repetitious, heavily rhythmic sections and infectious dance beats provided by live guitar and drum work, all reminiscent of techno and rave. Yet on songs like “Golden Skans” and “As Above, So Below,” the band follows the tradition of melodic pop with their catchy “oohs” and “ahhs” and sugary...
RYAN PRESSLER MIGHT BE described as a techno-Hessian. Don't misunderstand. He likes contributing to what he considers "the technology that is revolutionizing how people access entertainment and media."

...work for Australian Dance Theatre in Adelaide. The new artistic director had opted for a contemporary version of Swan Lake, and when a video screen on stage displayed the word begin, nothing could have prepared the audience for the dance explosion that ensued as the worlds of ballet and techno music collided. Stewart's dancers deconstructed the story of Prince Siegfried and his dying swan Odette in T shirts wittily printed with words such as doom, lust, sieg and fried. But more amazing was the way they moved, break-dancing from en pointe to contortionism in a choreography that really...
