'The Moderns' features the world’s great electronic, ambient, new classical, jazz, noise and other artists.
BADD PRESS announces the launch of The Moderns, a book dedicated to the world’s great avant-garde artists. Featuring more than 100 reviews, profiles and interviews and authored by music journalist Kevin Press, the book introduces readers to established and emerging music leaders from around the world.
“This is a golden era for the avant-garde,” says Press. “But it’s a difficult thing to navigate. As music has become increasingly easy to access, the best–truly innovative–work has become more difficult than ever to find. The Moderns is a kind of guide book for lovers of serious music.”
The book is focused on currently active artists. Featuring sections on electronic music, ambient music, new classical works, jazz and more, readers are presented detailed, easy-to-read descriptions of the artists and their remarkable work.
“My goal is to connect people who care about these styles of music with the most exciting artists in the world,” says Press.
