Greetings,

In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <https://www.furious.com/perfect/index0823.html>, you'll find (among other things):


 
 WILLIAM BASINSKI
  "Disintegration Loops" revisited/reconsidered by Thomas Spargo
"Sitting on the rooftop balcony of his Brooklyn apartment in the early afternoon on 11th September 2001, the experimental composer William Basinski was to witness first-hand the catastrophic attacks on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. Although he was just one of many that experienced the attack first-hand that day, Basinski's experience was particularly unique."


 DANE RUDHYAR
  Dissonant harmony composer by Daniel Barbiero
"In contrast to the essentially linear approach to post-tonal composition with which the ultramoderns, and in particular Seeger, were associated, Rudhyar's compositional concept was based on what he called "dissonant harmony." "Harmony" was the key quality here, and it in turn was based on the foundation of Rudhyar's particular concept of tone, or "Tone," as he often liked to spell it."


We also have a Spotify playlist with most of the artists above here:
