From chocolate chip cookies and penicillin to Play-Doh and the microwave oven, many breakthroughs stem from serendipity. The latest is Trusselina, the experimental musical duo of Mikaela Oppenheimer and Hayden McGarvey, who weave field recordings, coding-influenced melodies, and intricately layered production. McGarvey found his direction when he played a recording of “Rev” in reverse. Their debut EP, The Point’s A Truss, My Trusselina, is a glitchy indie rock patchwork that ventures from spoken word to Auto-Tuned yodeling. —Margaret Farrell
