0 Heading to Atlanta
I’ll be heading to Atlanta in the morning to spend ten days collaborating with Kevin Haller, Klimchak and Duet for Theremin and Lapsteel (Scott Burland and Frank Schultz).
Should be a great time of music making and hanging out. There’s even a rumor “Music from last Thursday” will be broadcast from Atlanta on Nov. 15th.

0 New Release – ‘The Sound of Thunder’
MCSD NetLabel and onomastic
are very happy to announce the release of
‘The Sound of Thunder’
by onewayness and dRachEmUsiK
A unique blend of Binaural Theta Drone, Ambient, lowercase and Glitch.

The Sound of Thunder is a collaborative effort by onewayness and dRachEmUsiK that was inspired by the final movement of T.S. Eliot’s ‘The Waste Land’, ‘What the Thunder Said’; and also by the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, from which it draws heavily. Each movement is based on one of the four concepts from the Upanishad, as used by Eliot: Datta (Charity), Dayadhvam (Mercy), Damyata (Restraint), and Shantih (Peace). With the exception of Peace, which we have allowed to stand alone, the movements are intended to represent the conflict and resolution between these virtues and the ‘undesirable’ qualities that they are meant to keep in check.
0 Time Drone Halloween & “The Sound of Thunder”
Select tracks from The new release “The Sound of Thunder” by onewayness and dRachEmUsiK will be featured on the Halloween edition of Time Drone, Wednesday, October 31st. The show will be broadcast from noon til 9pm CT and will feature new music from Mark Mosher, Shane Morris, Grove of Whispers, Peter DiPhillips, The New False Gods, The Sound of Thunder, Silvercord, Cousin Silas, Space Rock: The Compilation, Magnetic Wind, and much more!

SurrealEstate
http://www.surrealestatemusic.com
Surrealestate is a musical experience that utilizes visual and sonic textures reminiscent of the Old Berlin style of electronic synth music.
Surrealestate was formed five years ago with original members Kelly Sheets, Bunny Sheets, and Randy Schwartz. After Randy’s departure, long time friend and associate Jim Curry has contributed his musical creativity to Surrealestate. Surrealestate evolved from Kelly and Bunny’s collective band experiences which included Gravity Hill and Interstellar Electric Gnomes. Jim Curry has been involved in multiple genres and played with bands with tastes ranging from
Kelly Sheets on moogs, seuqencing, and other digital synths, vocals.
Bunny Sheets on keyboards, minimoog voyager, vocals.
Jim Curry on synth percussion, guitar, hand drums, various moogs, vocals.
Surrealestate enjoys playing Old School Berlin using restored Moog vintage synths and other vintage equipment collected over the years. When required, styles include upbeat techno, psychill, ambient, and trance. Lighting and stage props are occasionally utilized to add to the experience.
Faux Pas Quartet
http://www.fauxpasquartet.com
Faux Pas Quartet is a free form improvisation ensemble whose sole purpose is the spontaneous expression of the unconscious.
The resulting music, quite literally, comes from the same stuff of which dreams are made. Archetypes of the psyche rising unfettered through the medium of the unconscious and becoming manifest in the shared conscious reality. The music is soothing, agitating, floating, rhythmic, funny, scary, sad, angry, melodic and atonal – aka ‘nerd hop.’
Relax, open up and take the time to flow with the music. Above all, give yourself permission to explore the irrational.

In July of this year I did a dRachEmUsiK show at pHresh! and had a great time! Kelly and the staff at pHresh! are wonderful people. The food, atmosphere and people are all great. So this time I’m headed back to Kokomo with Faux Pas Quartet and Surrealestate.
pHresh! is less then an hour north of Indianapolis and well worth the short trip so come out on Oct. 27th for good food, good people and good music and video.
