Milwaukee-based multi-instrumentalist, composer, painter, and filmmaker Max Devereaux explores the tactile, physical potential of the turntable on Aguja. Through fragmented vinyl manipulation, layered improvisation, and sonic collage, Devereaux transforms noise and decay into structured chaos, echoing the experimental minimalism of artists like Oval and Alva Noto.
