Luftmensch Psymphonik - Musician in Albuquerque NM

ABOUT

I might not be a real musician, though I have been considered by others to be functional as one who creates music. Without any formal music education, I learned through the years from many a "live humiliation" and some musical spoon feeding from those I consider completey masters in music. Yay my friends, and be. However, I do know what it is I don't know and I can with confidence utilize the rest. If that is even a thing (Socrates?). To note, there is the chance I am completely and brilliantly underqualified on paper, and frequently dabbling in and seeking out my other rhythmically unhinged brothers and sisters. It can be a challenge. I can be a handful. I can count.

Never really had much of a bad review other than the self loathing gift of ruthless judgement, and a few short stints as the designated weak link in a number of cover bands. A humbling experience. Fun at its worst. Awkward at best. Hoping to get back to a long functioning self, anytime now. And as I close in on what some consider retirement, all I can speculate and say is "Soon enough, but not today.".

Most of my artistic output has been in the endevours of music in its instrumental form. Either well thought out, the product of improvisation, natural occurance, just one afternoon, or freak industrial earworm accident, here it is. Perhaps I have just run out of words I might feel a need to convey to anyone anymore. All I ever needed was a drummer, a bass instrument, an academic or two. Then I, the best worst guitarist can interject the best tone and the most incredible cacophony and piercing sonic paralyzation. A sneaky way to keep an audience in place. Live or otherwise. And hardly a musical microfiche of the overall collection I have been lucky enough and/or privaleged to have been involved with.

Otherwise (I might be pretending to do, or be a/an):

Musician. Performer. Songwriter. Producer. Useful. Useless. Alien. Human. Studio Engineer. Guitarist. Bassist. Drummer. Keyboards. Voice. Noise. Artist Development. Tech. Embellishment. Soundtracks. Commercials. Beats. Sessions. Consulting. Luthier. Composer. Couch Potato. Jumper. Inventor. Expert. Amateur. Yes Man. No Way Dude. Genius. Idiot. Bouncer. Observer. Lucky. Cursed. ADD. ADHD. Practitioner of "Richcraft"? (Ooh. Spooky.)

In any recording heard here, one may encounter the music "electroeccentrikinetic" (all words are made up) through the talents, capacities, directions, guidance, audio smatterings, and/or genius of:

Joseph Kolkovich (composer/keys/bass/guitar/musical superhero/#1 genius), Robert C. Lee (drums/percussion, post production, author), Grant Garner (bass guitar/more), Joe Padilla (keys/drums), Greg Johnson (keys/guitar), Daniel Axelrod (guitar/keys), Daniel Sandweiss (drums), Clive J. Logan (drums/confidence), Steve Gouveia (vocals/guitar/composition), Robert C. Brock (drums/percussion), Harry "Gus" Hache (bass guitar), Jim Wimberly (drums/percussion), Tim Rende (bass guitar), Theo Ernest Goode (bass guitar), Ari Muñoz (guitar/composition), Jarrett Barboa (vocals/composition), Sam Negri (keys/audio engineer), Emiliano Montoya (bass/keys), Ed Been (vocals/bass/guitar), Scott Bates (composition/guitar/vocals), David Chris (drums/attitude), David Dayton (vocals/composition), Brian Wiggins (drums/percussion), Charles Byrnes (drums/percussion), Aaron Lupardis (bass/vocals/composition), Chris Cowman (drums/evil technologies), Chris Martin (competitive drums), Tony Johnson (bass guitar), Melissa Fieck (drums/"she got the power"), Lawrence St. Ours (drums/percussion), Kimberly (vocals) and Tony Chavkin-Moreno (bass guitar), Shawn Robinette (military grade/weaponized drums), Troy Stellman (composition/guitar), Scott Gifford (composition/guitar), Brett Kennedy (celebrity drums and concussions), and perhaps more... The list is growing. Musicians in the "alumni" are also growing. I know there is the possibility that I have (unfortunately) obviously forgotten to add at least one or more musicians (from areas of accomplishment).
