Miami based artist, bleeech, fuses elements of pop, synth drones, and the nature that surrounds them to create heavily textured ambient realms one can get lost in. These humidity soaked collages allow the listener to completely disengage with the world around them.

The New Music Ensemble is a venue in which performers and audiences alike explore the newest music by today’s best composers, as well as by those of the recent past. The style of music ranges from the classics of High Modernism to the eclectic and energetic works of Postmodernism. Encompassing the full range and variety of contemporary concert music, from acoustic to electronic to electroacoustic to the uncategorizable, one will discover music that can be serious, often sublime and sometimes even silly. A forum for all that is fresh and daring in today’s music, the New Music Ensemble offers a variety of riches for the inquisitive ear.
