In this episode, we reconnect with Ruthie and Andrew—whom we first interviewed back in 2018 —to discuss their ambitious new 2026 album, Cycles I , created in collaboration with the acclaimed Friction Quartet . The project marks the fifth album from Negative Press Project and expands their musical vision into a stunning chamber-jazz experience that blends post-bop jazz , postmodern classical music , and fearless contemporary composition. Andrew joins us from Bend, Oregon , while Ruthie checks in from California's East Bay . Together, they discuss the creative process behind Cycles I , surviving the COVID era, composing in America today, and continuing to evolve as artists in an ever-changing musical landscape. The result is a bold, cinematic recording that balances sophisticated composition with improvisational freedom, making it both the group's most adventurous and most accessible release to date. Enjoy this fascinating conversation with two outstanding composers and innovators.
