MOMU, my breakbeat project with Mark Musselman, has a new release out on Beatport. From our publicist:
The release glides open with Momu’s original, subtly dissolving you into a rich tapestry of vivid harmonies and instrumental layers before ushering you into a sophisticated downtempo breakbeat groove – with the enveloping melodies modulating around it perpetually. This latest contribution from Momu further cements the duo’s status as one of the industry’s most diverse and artistically unlimited acts, capable of shaping timeless electronica with succinct nods to on-trend sonic nuances and a new-age feel.
The release is also available on Bandcamp with a second, alternative alias_j remix exclusive to that site.
Writing Update
TBH, I’m in the midst of a publishing drought. My most recent novel and short story were both published in 2021. But it’s not for lack of writing or submitting.
More than two years ago, I had a novella accepted by The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. Unfortunately, that particular publication has been in a slump, with a dearth of recent issues and apparent financial difficulties. So my novella has yet to see the light of day. However, F&SF was recently acquired, so there’s still hope.
Publishing troubles aside, I’ve been busy. Since 2021 I’ve completed two screenplays, three novels, and half a dozen short stories. Some of those works still need revision, but some are currently in submission. Something will get the green light eventually, and you’ll be among the first to hear about it.
The recent explosion in AI slop “writing” has made things very difficult for editors who accept unsolicited fiction submissions. As a result, submission windows have tightened, and keeping track of which magazines are open for what kind of stories is practically a part-time job. But I’ve finally got some systems in place so that I’m getting my work out there again.
Wish me luck!
