Myrtle Vermillion (David Wunder-Bragger & Susan Platz) perform "The Vermillion Vocal Menagerie, Pts. 1-4," an extended ambient music sequence of "tape-looped" vocal cycles with electronique drones, swirls, and tickles on various Buchla, Moog, and Make Noise apparatus...
---
Best known for their traditional old-time fiddle/banjo music and fiddle duets, the duo moonlights in the experimental musical realm on occasion. They delve into old school electronic sounds via oscillators, control voltage, filters, frequency shifters, sequencers, knobs, sliders, and beautiful randomness.  (These explorations are not entirely related to their folk music obsessions.)

"Bragger and Platz’s contrapuntal, droney playing winds through crooked, mysterious, and deeply groovy, minimalist jams that are just as likely to get you dancing as trancing." --Dusted Magazine
