  • electro-music festivalcollage-3

    For over a decade, people have gathered together to listen to and perform experimental electronic and electro-acoustic music, to swap gear and ideas, and to find like-minded life-long friends under the umbrella of electro-music.com. These gatherings have fostered an eclectic and diverse community of musicians and makers, improvisers and composers, amateurs and academics. The strangest thing about the electro-music community? That this might be the first time you’ve ever heard of it.

    For the past six years, the annual electro-music festival has been held in Huguenot, NY. As of the last day of 2016’s electro-music festival, the upstate New York days have been uploaded to the archive.

    ELECTRO MUSIC IS MOVING TO THE MIDWEST

    2017 will be the first e-m held in Indianapolis, Indiana. August 4-6 (instead of MEME, the Midwest Electro-Music Experience).
    The Irving Theater will host experimental musicians from the United States and all over the world.
    This year’s lineup includes but is not limited to 44 performances, 70+ musicians, and 5 video artists.

    Irvington is home to a variety of culinary options from handcrafted pizzas to Mexican seafood to caribbean cuisine.
    Additionally Sun King beer and nonalcoholic beverages will be available for purchase at the show.

0 WPS presents: Presidential Head Sculpture Live Stream

  • February 16, 2022
  • by Charles Shriner
  • · Blog · Walmort Portrait Studio

February 17, 2022
8:00 PM EST
Binky and Big Steve make their first appearance on Bandcamp via livestreaming from Ithaca, NY and Indianapolis, IN. Come get your head sculpted!
Chat room opens at 7:30 PM EST, Tune in and say hello!
https://wpsmusic.bandcamp.com/merch/wps-presents-presidential-head-sculpture

As you may have heard, unless you’ve bought merchandise from the artist whose show you’re watching, you’ll be asked to pay for access to the chat room.   Reports are that the minimum contribution is $1, with a $5 suggested amount – essentially a tip, or the price of a drink or two at a live venue.   If you have a PayPal account linked to Bandcamp already, you can pay via PayPal; otherwise you’re likely to see a credit-card form pop up.  

Binky and Big Steve will be donating all proceeds from the chat contributions to the Tompkins County Creative Recovery Fund.  It’s a fund that supports artists in the Ithaca, New York area whose ability to work has been impacted by COVID and the resulting limitations on live events and gallery shows. The Fund has been doing this for over two years now, and you’d be surprised at how much difference a bag of groceries or an afternoon of child care can make for a working artist.   Please do join the chat, and give generously.  We’ll be taking questions there after the show (if at all possible – we haven’t been able to test that yet).

0 New embral live release

  • August 16, 2018
  • by Charles Shriner
  • · Blog · embral · Performance

When embral (Adam Holquist and I) went on the road last November, our intention was to play no existing music, and to essentially treat the tour as a mobile R&D lab for the next studio release, recording every night and seeing which bits began to take shape.
This is not the next studio release. This is a ‘calling card’. It gives some hints at where the new music is heading, without (we hope) giving away too much.

Speaking of “the next studio release”, the music for the new studio release has been recorded and I’m in the process of mixing and mastering it. The plan is to get the music out in the Fall with a support tour in November.

In the mean time, enjoy a very cold night in Kansas City.
THIS WAY FORWARD:

0 D. Miñoza & dRachEmUsiK at Elder Brew tonight.

  • December 14, 2017

  • · Blog · dRachEmUsiK · Performance

D. Miñoza & dRachEmUsiK will be at Elder Brew tonight.
12-14-2017, 8pm, 24 6th St., Bristol, TN

Guitarist D.Miñoza https://dminoza.wordpress.com/ is a sound artist working primarily in the areas of drone, noise, minimalism and free improvisation.
“Deep, majestic sound design combines with eerie drones and what I can only describe as esoteric melodies, forming a moody yet beautiful sonic melange.”
-Darrel Burgan (StillStream Net Radio)

dRachEmUsiK http://drachemusik.com/
dRachEmUsiK combines a plethora of nuanced techniques in order to create groovy and meditative soundscapes; giving structure to improvisation.
This style manifests itself into an organic and natural composition of a free flowing design resulting in improvisations and structured pieces ranging from ambient to glitch-groove, noise to nujazz.

vol 1 cover
vol 1 inner

The last 6 years have been all about live improvisation for me. I finally came to the realization I will never take the time to recreate studio versions of the music.
Musically, I’m changing directions and it was important to document the period between 2011-2017. The plan is two release Vol. 3 & 4 in March. The recordings are unedited. Download includes album art, formatted and suitable for CD creation.
The music is free to download. Please consider making a donation.

As always, thanks for your support!
