jmdkm – Red Sea
'Red Sea' is jmdkm’s 2nd audio release and is based on electro-acoustic improvisation. jmdkm likes to present an almost soothing notion of sound. This collection tries to capture a more beat-driven gesture. The arrangements are edgy, eerie and somewhat overwhelming perhaps. The general idea is to perform and represent true ambient.

Behind the release
jmdkm ↗
jmdkm has been active in the arts since 1994, particularly in painting, photography and sound. He has been in a self-centered experimenting mode which has possibly gone into a naive approach.
This is related not only in lacking an academic context, but especially with the presence of ‘a hysterical purpose’ of creating and re-arranging. The emphasis always lies on collage, the material is being fragmented and re-arranged.
jmdkm is trying to find a line of purely structural forms in a grotesque but systematic artistic perception.
jmdkm is trying to create lyrical archetypes.
