Massimo Magee é um multi-instrumentista australiano que possui como foco a improvisação livre e o experimentalismo. Utilizando-se de inúmeros instrumentos, objetos diversos e espaços acústicos (como o eco gerado pelo local em que ocorreu a gravação, por exemplo), Massimo nos remete a sons extremamente diversos dentro do sopro na música contemporânea.

Altamente recomendado para os admiradores de Anthony Braxton, Evan Parker, Kaoru Abe, Ken Vandermark, Mats Gustafsson, Peter Brötzman... enfim, com a galera ousada dos metais que flerta com inovação e improvisação livre.

Palavras do próprio Massimo em relação ao A Fundamental Interconnectedness:

(...)improvised according to a general process developed through prior improvisations. This process involves the spontaneous composition of a series of concepts, related to a general theme (itself spontaneously composed), which are then combined in various permutations and arrangements (developing individually with each successive reiteration), which give them different meanings in relation to their changing contexts. The result is the 'Fundamental Interconnectedness' of the title. It was played (improvised) as one continuous piece, recorded in real time with no alterations, and is presented in its entirety, as one track.
