Set 1: Roots Magic play the music of John Carter, Julius Hemphill, Sun Ra, Olu Dara, etc.- Like listening to someone you've just met describe a close friend; all the lavish love of newfound comraderie.

Set 2: Frick/Reiter/Frodl/Stempkowski - An Austrian string quartet demonstrates what a lifetime of caring about what you do can bring about: something personally fulfilling and, even more importantly, something that makes other people care about things way beyond themselves.

Set 3: The Elks - Homemade electronics meet acoustic instruments like a kiss that started way before it began.
