0 New WPS release- First Job
New Music from Walmort Portrait Studio
Wowy zowy, Binky & Big Steve are back with new Walmort Portrait Studio music
0 New embral live release
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:

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.”

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.

dRachEmUsiK
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.

0 Week 1 of new dRachEmUsiK music
Today marks the end of the first week of actual work on the new dRachEmUsiK release. I’ve been contemplating this music and improvising for almost a year and it’s exciting to actually begin the process of bringing it to life.
Right now it’s all about core sound design for the instruments. My primary sources for the sound design are coming from what I call my “textural workstation” (first image below) which consists of four MarSynths, horndog, MFOS Sound Lab, and Koma electroacoustic field kit and my live performance rig (second image). It’s been slow going but that’s to be expected.
The sound design and instrumentation is particularly challenging for this music because I’m creating the music for real time, multi-speaker performance consisting of 16 discreet channels and 16 speakers. So I’m bouncing back and forth between sound design, composition and experimenting with the arrangement of speakers, routing and instrument placement within the speaker array.
More as things progress. Hope to have some audio examples next week.
Peace

0 Music for the Tacopocalypse
Tacopocalypse - Live improvisations by urbster1, dRachEmUsiK, onewyaness, jmtta
SOMEHOW I figured now was a good time to get the Tacopocalypse music out into the universe.
Tacopocalypse was recorded on 5-19-2012 at Bela Dubby in Lakewood, OH. Bela Dubby was a wonderful art, music, food venue that closed the day after this recording. It was replaced by a Taco place. At some point during the night the closing of Bela Dubby was referred to as The Tacopocalypse.
The two tracks on the release are group improvisations done by Aaron Urbanski aka urbster1, Adam Holquist aka onewayness, Charles Shriner aka dRachEmUsiK and Jason Breitigan aka jmtta.
This is a free download.
