About the Summit

This is the 3rd year for the Summit featuring some of the most creative and exploratory music of our time by the community of die- hard DIY self-motivated musicians of the West Coast. Heading this endeavor is saxophonist and sound artist Rent Romus.

Romus not only administers Edgetone Records, one of the many artist run new music labels in California and part of U.I.R.C., but also curates the S.F. Luggage Store Gallery New Muisc Series, The S. F. SIMM Series, Outsound Presents...(an artist collective for live performance), the production board member for the SFAlt Festival, advisor for Big Sur Experimental Sound Shift, and founder and head of U.I.R.C. (The Ultra Independent Recording Coalition), an all artist run label distribution network.

All the artists performing on the 2004 Edgetone New Music Summit reflect a wide range and genre busting exploration of new music from up and down the California coastline.
