Milwaukee’s husband and wife trip-hop duo, Will It Burn think of their music as “upcycling for the ears.”

Featuring “Em” on the vocals and “Eight” on the beats, Will It Burn make it their art to take snippets of forgotten musical history and refashion those snippets, recovering lost words, poetry, phrases and decades-old culture by searching for gems on neglected wax.

The duo’s snippets and gems go to also fashion a sound that recalls moments of modern electronic bands such as Purity Ring and Broods as well as older moody offerings from Propellerheads and Massive Attack.

Coming right off of the release of their new album, In Other Circumstances, Will It Burn is getting set for a string of fall shows and beyond.

Tune into WMSE on Tuesday, September 29th to hear Will It Burn WMSE.org to stream live or in the archives, or simply tune your radio to 91.7 FM at the 6 o’clock hour.

Local/Live on WMSE is sponsored by The Garage.
