In the tenth episode of Soundscapes NYC, host Ryan Purcell expands upon previous episodes to consider the various musical styles that emerged in New York City during the Seventies alongside punk rock. In dialogue with music critic Will Hermes, author of Love Goes to Buildings on Fire: Five Years in New York that Changed Music Forever (Farrar, Straus, and Giroux, 2011), and Lou Reed: King of New York (Farrar, Straus, and Giroux, 2023) we contextualize cultural creators in the city during the decade who spurred a tide of experimental music including hip-hop, salsa, techno, and new styles of jazz within the context of New York City's fiscal crisis. Will Hermes is a senior critic for Rolling Stone and a longtime contributor to NPR's “All Things Considered.” His work turns up periodically in The New York Times; he has also written for Spin, Slate, Salon, The Believer, the Village Voice, City Pages, The Windy City Times, and other publications.

Named Best Songwriter of 2020 by City Pages, her music touches upon archetypal themes of the human condition: love, loss, survival, dreams, and the natural world. A longtime student of yoga and psychology, Mary weaves sacredsubject matter into her songs, seeking of deeper levels of consciousness, and concern for the environment mixed into oft-crass, real-world hue. Mary released her 9th album The Wildness of Living & Dying in February 2025.   Check Mary out here:  Patreon: Mary Bue  Website: Marybue.com  IG: Marybuemusic  Facebook: Mary Bue
