Air Space

Air Space is a musical duo between Brian Shankar Adler and Mike Effenberger that explores site specific new music.

Their expansive sound comes from Effenberger’s keyboards and tape delays, pitted against Adler’s genre-defying use of percussion from South America, South Asia and the sewers of Brooklyn. Blending Indian raga, post-Cageian minimalism, and lo-fi nostalgia with an occasional field recording, tiny sparks fly while the music retains a deceptively serene appearance. In 2024, Air Space released its debut album, Cricket Cipher (Adhyaropa Records).
