Stax Records and the Soulsville Foundation are saddened to hear of the passing of Steve Cropper.

A founding member of Booker T & The MGs, Cropper’s distinctive guitar work, production, and songwriting helped shape the Memphis soul sound. A trusted songwriting collaborator for artists like Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd, and others, Cropper played a vital role in countless Stax recording sessions throughout the 1960s and into 1970.

As the co-writer of “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay,” “Knock On Wood,” and “In the Midnight Hour,” he leaves a legacy that stands with the legends of 20th-century soul music.

When the lights gone out and the food run out
All we have is just the music. Ziggy Marley

Late avant-garde composer Alvin Lucier continues to "compose" music posthumously through a pioneering art-science installation called "Revivification" at the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Collaborating with artists and scientists, Lucier donated blood in 2020 to grow lab-based brain organoids from stem cells. These organoids, connected to a 64-electrode mesh, produce real-time sound responses using parabolic brass plates and transducers. The installation blends neuroscience, AI, and experimental music, raising deep questions about creativity, consciousness, and whether artistic expression can transcend death.
