The Sonic Circuits Festival is dedicated to providing the DC community with opportunities to sample experimental and avant-garde electronic music that emphasises improvisation and the artistic use of new technologies.
Check out Magma, one of the most influential of all French bands. There are many things that make this group unique: the deep "vision of humanity's spiritual and ecological future" of founder and "drum hero" Christian Vander; the actual invention of a constructed language, "Kobaian", in which most lyrics are sung; the fascinating talent of linking the story of a new civilization to a musical experimentation never heard before; the eclectic musical inspirations (Carl Orff, Béla Bartók, John Coltrane). From its creation in 1969, to its latest albums and shows, the adventurous and imaginative spirit of Magma has left a legacy of music that defies standards and convenient classifications of rock.
