A boxkite's construction is so simple yet it has the ability to do something humans have only dreamed of since the dawn of time: it can fly. This is what we strive for with our music; simply constructed but capable of soaring into the sky.

From a musician's point of view, the internet allows instant access to a potential world-wide fan base. Touring and radio are no longer the only tools available to introduce a band's music to potential fans.
From a music listener's perspective, the internet allows listeners to experience and support music from artists they might never have heard of without the internet.

"One step beyond is the direction by which creative man has been moving since time began." - Jackie McLean, jazz musician.


BoxKite experiments with form rather than without form, as a kind of experimenting traditionalism or a progressive conservatism. BoxKite does not strive to defy or ignore musical boundaries. Instead, they explore the details and implications of those boundaries; bending, twisting, and finding relationships between seemingly disparate musical elements.


"In the spirit of Tortoise and The Sea and Cake, BoxKite stews up a feast of electronic rockjazz, coined by these guys as,"The Kinks meet up with the mid-60's Miles Davis Quintet and Boards of Canada." With the chilled out, looping qualities and rich atmospheres so associated with electronica captured with a rock attitude and jazz-type harmonic intelligence, Boxkite satiates the most expansive sense of aural hunger."

"(Soundings is)... watery, atmospheric, and mellow, while not boring. It’s not all waterfalls and clouds floating by, though. There are industrial elements throughout, with metallic sounds and repetitive beats interspersed with more organic sounds, from acoustic guitar to the sound of cicadas. Nine tracks with titles such as "Moon Observers Handbook" and "1000 Chairs" seem varied while the tracks actually play well as a whole piece." (Reviewer: Anne Tangeman, The Lawrencian)
