U-Atrocity

About Me

This digital realm is maintained by me(Charley Schoolmaster) for shedding info and sounds concerning my solo(U-Atrocity), duos , and any other bands I play in. I flew through the atmosphere, over the Pacific Ocean and landed here, in Japan, a sonically fertile land and culture, six years ago to find myself playing music among the ever so kind Japanese folks. There are some great musicians over here in Japan, and so I am indulging in composing sounds with a variety of people while in Japan. Riding atop a personal belief note, I am very much interested in the collage aspect of everyday life, visually and aurally in particular, every moment is a pastiche of sorts, for example, when walking down the street really tune-in to what you are seeing and hearing, it is an amalgamation of fragments we are seeing and hearing and smelling at all times, mixed-up with memories, and mass-filth inundations filtering through our selves ; and so I am very much intrigued by the idea of constructing or de-constructing music which draws from that reality, sonic collages. That is the main aim with the solo pieces. For how much longer? I am not too sure, but these days I don't want to live back in the states under an obviously fascist plutocracy,or Bushocracy....I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
