2 hour bi-monthly excursions into sound and dissonance. Music label with John T. Gast. Regular guest selections from friends and affiliates.
For someone who wasn't born there, Kenny Dixon Jr. aka Moodymann might be the most Detroit guy to ever exist. Moving to the motor city from LA at only three weeks old, he has never "truly" left since. His music channels the musical legacy of Black Detroit – transplanted Delta blues, gospel, Motown and Fortune, Stevie Wonder, the Electrifying Mojo and the Belleville Three – with an unassailable verve. His dust-spackled opus "Silentintroduction" has hummed continously in the background of house music since its release in 1997, inspiring generations of producers. Two hours of Kenny Dixon Jr. aka Moodymann, selected and mixed by LDLDN. Photo: Donavan Glover

John Kannenberg creates quietly reflective works in both image and sound that blur the boundaries between intention and accident. Incorporating techniques derived from free improvisation, musical composition, field drawing, minimalism, cubism and abstract expressionism in their construction, his works deal with a variety of themes including primal natural forces, spirituality and mindful contemplation, melancholy and nostalgia, abstracted narratives, and the confluence of sonic and visual art.
John's work has been presented in the United States, Europe and Australia, including appearances at the FILE 2007 conference in Rio De Janeiro, the 2006 Soundwalk festival in Long Beach, the 2005 John Cage Musicircus at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, the 2005 so.cal.sonic festival in Long Beach, the 2004 International Symposium on Electronic Art in Tallinn, the 2004 Biennale of Electronic Arts in Perth, the 2003 Placard Festival in New York, the 2002 MAXIS festival in Sheffield, the 2001 Outer Ear festival in Chicago, and several broadcast appearances on Resonance 104.4 FM in London. He has released recordings on the Crouton, Topscore, Grain of Sound, Retinascan, Earlabs, Cohort and Why Not LTD labels, and has been a co-presenter of the Something Else radio program on WLUW 88.7 FM in Chicago.
Since April 2002, John has served as the creator, designer and curator of Stasisfield.com, an experimental music label and interdisciplinary digital art space presenting works by a diverse collection of artists from around the globe.
