MAHI MAHI
-This dance duo consisted of V.Von Ricci (Keyboards/vocals) and Sir VIZIO (Drums+Electronics) has influences of Kraftwerk, Yello, and Joy Division to their sound. All samples are triggered live and on the fly at their shows, no sequencers or backing tracks used at all.

In the beginning...
This blog will be a resource for my radio show "Fear Of Music" on WRIU with some articles focusing on Providence/Rhode Island/New England local music. Its goal is to help these bands find people, even if it's just one or two, that will appreciate their music. Expect record reviews, blurbs, show reviews, photos and general musical musings. Also, I will post play lists from each one of my shows.
Be sure to check back every week.
