NX35

Summer of Glaciers makes tracks marked by hypnotic themes that give way to step-lightly beats, a blend of space and rhythm that can only be served with the term “shoegroove.” Based in San Francisco, Ryan Wasterlain does the loop scientist thing onstage with a guitar, pedal board and a computer, stopping between tracks for no one, DJ-style. An expat of the hardcore scene, Wasterlain gained clout as a post-rock solo artist when “Migratory Birds” and “Plus Equal Minus” from his first EP, These Last Days, were picked up by the PBS series Roadtrip Nation.
