The Body Electric Podcast is hosted by jazz guitarist Nathan Hiltz and features musician to musician in interviews. The show airs  Thursdays. We play a few duets and discuss where they come from musically and what they've been focusing on lately. 

Hi, thanks for checking out my music. I make electronic music with modular synthesizers and live guitar in Reason 10.  I like creating many genres of music ranging from breaks or house and techno to chill downtempo and ambient soundscapes. ...or combination them.

I like to mix it up! You can't put creativity in a box ;)  

I'm always interested in collaboration. Hit me up anytime.

Thanks for listening!

"It's been a long haul down a short road for Vocalist/Guitarist Julia Crawford, who despite 3 years of performing as a member of garage-rock band The Cosmic Eye, has readied herself for Toronto's Indie-Pop main stage with her newest project, VONELLE. 
Set within deep grooves of oscillating riffs and fuzzy-peach jams, VONELLE's first offering, the self-titled EP watches the enduring Toronto quartet sway in and out of the electric canopy. These mindful migrators are poised at the front of their flock. The recent release of their debut EP has alt-blog Grayowl Point confiding,  "So long as they keep combining Crawford’s great vocal range with unusual song structures (as well as the killer keyboard sounds) the band will have a great niche for themselves."
A packed EP release party at Toronto's Cameron House, and an opening spot alongside Captured Tracks band Dignan Porch are recent stamps in VONELLE's passport. Moving into 2013, building on the success of "VONELLE", Crawford has found her stride. With a growing fan base eager for the kind of Offend Maggie prog-pop that gave life to much of the late 2000's alternative scene's, and a devotion to their frantic-yet-polished live show, VONELLE seem to be very aware of their crowd, community, and future."
