Artist Bio
Influences: classical music from Perotinus to music composed today, Heavy Metal (Iron Maiden, Blind Guardian, Nightwish [with Tarja Turunen], Van Canto, Dream Theater, Dimmu Borgir), some Goth music, people who have seen Earth from outer space, and my friends the incredible Singvoegel
FAWMer since 2011. My pronouns are they/them.
New album "etudes for cpu" here: https://emergent.bandcamp.com/album/etudes-for-cpu
Classically-trained mezzo-soprano, musicologist by training, guitar dabbler, maker of weird electronic sounds (#supercollider), composer. Genres? What's that?
Willing to infodump on music theory if you tag me.
I'm committing to #no-apologies-no-excuses this year - you're welcome to remind me of that if you catch me self-deprecating or making excuses for imperfect demos. I'm feeling self-conscious about a lot of things, but FAWM is not the place for that :)
re: comments - please don't be offended if I don't post a "thank you" on your soundboard. I just can't keep up with it, and I certainly don't expect you to do the same for me. Also, not commenting on my songs is OK if you can't quite figure out what to say.
2022-02-22 I wish I could be more active... but I guess I'm limited at the moment. Work is busy as hell, and I have had a bout of debilitating migraine in the last week. I hope I can put at least some of my many ideas into music in the coming days.

Thanks ryuu for your kind words on "The Mouse Just Ate My Peanut Butter". The title is what I came up with in the very second I needed to save the song and is a reminiscence of an encounter with mice on our attic. We prepared a live trap back then with peanut butter and the mice just loved it (we could rescue 5 of them). :)

Hey Ryuu! Happy FAWMing! Freue mich schon auf Deine Werke und die vielleicht entstehenden "weird electronic sounds". :)

SSA?? Can't wait!

@elainedimasi Jan 2022
Hey! Not sure the forum at-ing is working yet, so I'll type it again here: I think you are absolutely right about SSA(A) writing being underserved. The close harmonies you depend on when writing for adult SA range voices make for blends unheard anywhere else, really. Look forward to hearing what you come up with, for sure!
