New album - NŪN
The Alternating Currents are from Oakland, California. The band consists of Ruben Diaz as key songwriter and vocalist, Augustus DeVandry Lead Guitar, Eric Park Bass, and Joe Miller Drums. 
Beginning in 2016, as a cumulous group between Diaz and Miller, The Alternating Currents have cemented their sound with DeVandry and Park to become a band cutting a distinctive style from their contemporaries with a diverse & visceral cannon of songs. Fans describe the band as “post everything,” a thread between popular/traditional/experimental music.
Diaz applies a caustic but controlled lyrical performance and rhythm guitar with a bedrock of Park and Miller’s intricate and bubbling rhythm section, torn open by DeVandry’s gnawing guitar lines.
 
The Alternating Current's forthcoming album, NŪN, was recorded in Oakland California. Engineered by Alex Laipenieks of Owl Sight Recorders. The album is a textural statement of blistering production and raw energy, warping songs through a psychedelic funnel of tasteful affect that is cemented by earnest and foundational songwriting through Diaz & Laipenieks production partnership. Early reviews place NŪN among comparison with classic albums that also defy comparison and genre. The Alternating Currents have sculpted a unique vision of what a Rock structure can do in contemporary popular music.

Swiss Alchemist of Music since 1988.

Swiss alchemist of sound Balduin, born in Bern 1978, has quietly released a string of albums and EPs since 2001, the contents of which run the gamut from dreamy electronica and lo-fi experimental pop to self-composed harpsichord recitals. Balduin plays all the instruments himself. Since moving to Sunstone Records (UK) with the sold-out EP „The Glamour Forest“, released in January 2014, he mines the deep well of whispy, paisley slice of 60s psychedelia baroque-pop tinged with Beatlesque melodies and Barrettesque whimsy. Dainty keyboards, soothing sitar, nostalgic harmonies and tinkling music boxes. On his latest Sampler „Post From Mars“, released in May 2014 on the Active Listener Records, Balduin grabs the ineffable vapours of vintage psychedelia and runs away with it in inspired directions. He nicely pulls off some more modern, indie-baiting electronic sounds with an impressive listen informed by both the insular bedroom studio as well as the orchestra capacity 1966 studio. The tunes bear a slew of influences ranging from the Electric Prunes, to Donovan, to the Magnetic Fields, but the sound is not mere re-creations as this artist ultimately defines his own psychedelic visions.

There’s music you hear and there’s music you see, the best kind achieves both. ISMAY creates intimate folk/Americana songs that transport you straight to the land where they were  written - deeply rooted in the heart of Sonoma Mountain. Melding the experience of taming wild horses, escaping wildfires, and birthing lambs with warm guitars and delicately graceful vocals, it is an original soundscape that is a delight to the ears as well as the imagination.

Driven by singer/songwriter Avery Hellman, ISMAY released their debut full length album Songs Of Sonoma Mountain in 2020, to widespread acclaim. It was named one of the 10 best Albums in the Bay Area and garnered features in American Songwriter, No Depression, Sonoma Magazine, and more. Blending field recordings and intricate melodies with live, guitar-based inventive composition, it is a proper introduction to the old-world charm of ISMAY. 

In March of 2023, Ismay was featured as one of a select group of artists from around the world participating in the Apple TV+ Show My Kind of Country, produced by Kacey Musgraves and Reese Witherspoon.

Hellman’s musical talent is no surprise, growing up backstage at their grandfather’s Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival, where they were inspired early on by artists such as Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, and Hazel Dickens. Since then, ISMAY has appeared throughout the West Coast at music festivals such as Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, Strawberry Music Festival, The National Cowboy Poetry Gathering, The Lantern Tour, and at renowned venues such as the Great American Music Hall, Slim’s, the Golden State Theater, and the Mystic Theater. They have opened for acclaimed artists including Steve Earle, Watchhouse (fka Mandolin Orange), Justin Townes Earle, Robert Earl Keen, John Doe, and Chuck Prophet.

A lot of us live in our head, disconnected from our feelings and intuition. This podcast touches on releasing insecure attachment, accepting your authentic self and getting “unstuck” by connecting to how you FEEL instead of how you THINK. I’ve been there, and discuss sensitive subjects using my own experiences with a lot of laughs and even more empathy… because we’re all flawed humans.

Uploaded, I have rough musical sketches that I hope will provide of you with a sense of my skill set and musical range.  I am here on Soundcloud to find artistic collaborators and instrumentalists, in order to create polished recordings.  While many of my tracks are Experimental, Cinematic and Avant Garde, I would like to also record Pop, Rock and Jazz styles.
