Piano Magic

Post-rock
Post-rock

Piano Magic is a Post-rock act. Their sound grew out of This Mortal Coil, Cocteau Twins, Life Without Buildings, Tram and Vashti Bunyan. Those roots explain a lot about how Piano Magic arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Gravenhurst, Disco Inferno, Low, Stereolab and Blonde Redhead, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into 009 Sound System, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 29 connections around Piano Magic, reaching back through This Mortal Coil and forward to 009 Sound System.
