I sing/play in the local Denver band Caltrops. Also have a solo project Tantrik Nihilist. Looking for collaborators, or to be a collaborator. It I’m open to any thing from doing shows with bands as a guest. Open to offers to join bands, but unlikely that I’ll take it. Definitely open to doing one-off collaboration projects with people, who even getting a free-improvisation collective together.
starting an avant-garde, classical, minimalist, or jazz ensemble, wouldn’t mind having a collaborator to mix grindcore and power electronics. Anyone who maybe into ambient, drone, and minimalism feel free to reach out as most my solo recordings are something like this. I’d really love to mix electronic with extreme metal, and punk and would love to do a guest spot with your band with me doing this. Also always really wanted to start a heavy roomy, but with experimental psyche/prog/jams.
I’ll update this bio more later, but I’m pretty open to all sorts of ideas. Especially relative to doing something experimental, and most importantly stylishly, or being influenced by those below
