DRKMBNT live at Sonic Sound December 6th 2021
TIME: Dec. 6th from 9pm (CET - Vienna)
drkmbnt is a live act that performs its music with self-soldered sound tools.
I love improvisation, those moments when orderly things break into disorderly ones, when I no longer know how things will continue. And then, purely by chance, another possibility opens up.
Most of the releases are recordings of jams, gigs or online performances. I love small sound tools, with simple synchronisation or none at all. The sound has to inspire me, then I solder the device. Now and then I modify a device, but I don't develop it myself. I want to make music. But with simple tools that encourage improvisation and make playing difficult.
My favourite sound tools are: Chaosz (Uwe Schüler), Flip Floater Delay, Dual-Pitch Synth (Claude Winterberg), ATiny Punk Console, IOIO, AtBase (Noisio), Grains (Ginkosynthese) and the Dude (Bastl Instruments) as mixer.
At the moment I'm working on a setup where I can use my sound tools (all from FlipFloater) midified with an Arduino Nano.

music with self-soldered sound tools
DRKMBNT is a live act that performs its music with self-soldered sound tools. The sound tools were mostly developed by friends with whom DRKMBNT regularly meets privately or at soldering festivals. From time to time, DRKMBNT modifies these tools, as in the “Tiny Techno Orchestra” project. The orchestra consists of 10 circuits, each made up of a CMOS chip, a few resistors and capacitors and photovoltaic panels. Lamps are used to make the orchestra sound.
The music of DRKMBNT is improvised, from time to time a video or a live recording is published on the band's homepage, only very rarely are records produced.
DRKMBNT loves improvisation, loves the moments when the orderly turns into the disorderly, when he doesn't know how things will continue musically and technically. But fortunately, new possibilities constantly arise, musically, aesthetically and technically.
