P(x3) is the electrifying brainchild of two of Connecticut's most dedicated and dynamic musicians: drummer Rob Madore and keyboardist/saxophonist Isaac Young. What began as a bold exploration of improvisational music has evolved into a powerhouse duo that shatters the boundaries of modern dance music, funk, hip-hop, and beyond.
Madore and Young share an unparalleled musical chemistry, creating a seamless connection that transforms their live performances into something truly otherworldly. Together, they conjure an intense, two-headed musical beast, delivering jaw-dropping, mind-bending sets that leave audiences in awe.
Both members have made waves across regional and national music scenes, carving out impressive reputations through collaborations with members of Tauk, Consider the Source, Lespecial, Goose, Eggy, and Twiddle. Px3 also contributes to the groundbreaking musical collective Mono Means One, further cementing their role as innovators in the live music scene.
Their latest release, Piano Percussion Planet, showcases Px3's limitless creativity and features the exceptional talents of Thomas Xavier Kenney from Doom Flamingo. The album is a genre-defying journey that highlights the duo’s unparalleled versatility and cements their place as trailblazers in the modern music landscape.
Coop a Loop is the solo project of Philadelphia bass virtuoso Eric Cooper. After years of bringing tight bass and deep pocket playing to ensembles across Philly, Coop a Loop has brandished a looper and become the ensemble himself, maintaining a focus on melody and electronic bass guitar music that defies any expectation from a “looping bass player”.
Sure, you hear the hallmarks of contemporary bass-forward excellence: ultra-clean slap and double-thumb techniques, smooth and tight fingerstyle work, and enough funk to give anyone a serious case of Stank Face. Focus on that too much, however, and you might miss the driving rhythms, synthy laser beams, and ambient textures generated through a series of cleverly-utilized effects. Coop a Loop’s music is a blend of electronic, funk, jam, indie, and ambient music.
His sound is not only unique, but the visual aspect of watching loops being created and hearing these soundscapes take shape is exciting to witness, whether solo or with his band. Coop a Loop’s live performances are electric, igniting the crowd with high-energy grooves and irresistible rhythms that keep everyone dancing all night.
After dropping his new album “The Sequel” in April 2025, this is shaping up to be the biggest year for Coop yet!
