    Marty Quinn (he|him), Bass

    Musician Diego Melgar (he|him) reflected on the music that has moved him to action in the past–it is electronic music. The passion and dedication he has seen in communities—both for music and for social justice—continues to inspire him. Drawing influence from Chicago Footwork, gospel, sacred steel music Melgar offers this reflective meditation on the original version of Over My Head, using isolated samples. He uses improvisation, layers of lush guitars and drums—even the imperfections and oddities in his performance—as landmarks to create a sense of propulsion early in the track. Despite the shifting tempo, Melgar maintains a consistent rhythm using a wooden rim sound, anchored by rhythmic mathematics.The intentionality behind every part of this production is evident, showcasing techniques Melgar has learned over recent years in full bloom.
