This loose group is the most exciting thing going on in creative music today in my opinion. (Kate Gentile's Find Letter X was my favorite album of 2023.) Thank you for bringing more attention to it, and to the names I didn't know yet! And I always love those score excerpts. It's amazing how different music can sound when you know how the musicians were thinking about it while playing.

Adding a late comment just to say thanks for this! I feel like it's good enough if you were to say "These are the cats, check them out" but the extra steps of appreciation + explanation... this was very exciting to read. Now gonna dive in & support these artists

Thanks for an exquisitely curated ________ read. Loved it!

...apparently separate, yet fractals of an underlying scene...

acquiring Okazaki; love discovering Kate Gentile.

Grateful for 'clips, notation, links', (re-activating my music notation reading as a result, my curiosity is piqued to perceive more shades of the "juicy" information). Reading some of your sentences out loud, nice to read someone having fun.
