    Jason Lindner - aka flymyspcshp - is a contemporary electronic musician, composer, producer and sound healer from Brooklyn, NY, best known for his post-jazz/hybrid electronic band Now Vs Now and for his keys and synth work on David Bowie's final Grammy-winning album ‘★’ (blak-stär). With an artistic identity spanning genres, cultures, formats, and technologies, Jason frequently performs and collaborates within the New York underground electronic, dance, experimental, jazz and performance art communities, exploring the cross-sections of live electronic music and spontaneous improvisation for immersive sonic journeys both on and off the dance floor, from raves to meditative work. Lindner’s active collaborations include the groundbreaking Moment Machine with digital drummer/producer Currency Audio and the North African futurist ensemble Saha Gnawa. Jason’s talents and skills have also served in collaboration with a broad spectrum of visionary artists including Lauryn Hill, Meshell Ndegeocello, Mulatu Astatke, Angélique Kidjo, Salami Rose Joe Louis, Nikki Nair, JKriv, Toribio, Greg Paulus (No Regular Play), No Eyes, LNDFK, Nu Jazz, Maiya Blaney, Sidra Bell, Poncili Creación and the Hybrid Movement Company. "Jason brings a fearless sense of improvisation to not only rhythm, melody, and harmony, but also to sound.” -- Dave Smith, electronic instrument inventor and MIDI pioneer "Jason Lindner is a musical universe!" -- Chick Corea
