Sylvan Esso's Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn, Alexis Taylor of Hot Chip, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith and Overmono's Ed Russell discuss how they make their music.

Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn are the electro-pop duo Sylvan Esso. They鈥檝e been nominated for a Grammy, played some of the world鈥檚 biggest festivals, and worked with the likes of TuneYards, Flock of Dimes, and Robert Glasper 鈥� all of whom have been on previous episode of Music Life.

Alexis Taylor is the lead singer, keyboard player and guitarist in synthpop band Hot Chip. He鈥檚 also a solo artist in his own right, having released his latest record Silence earlier in the year. Ed Russell is one half of the most talked about electronic duos this year, Overmono. His love of electronic music came from eavesdropping on his older brother, who was mixing in his bedroom next door, and listening to his records that he鈥檇 鈥減inched鈥�.

Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith is an ambient composer, performer, producer and sonic explorer. Last year, she released the LPThe Mosaic of Transformation, an 鈥渆xpression of love and appreciation for electricity鈥�, and followed it with this year鈥檚 I Could Be Your Dog (Prequel), a collaborative project with LA composer Emile Mosseri.
