“Welcome to the debut broadcast from S.O.U.L. Radio!
“These are my first solo recordings. I put them together over the space of about 3 months in early 2009. I made the sounds you hear on the following stringed instruments: acoustic guitar, electric guitar, Bulgarian tamboura, autoharp, and oud.
“I deeply appreciate Weird Forest giving me the opportunity to construct this tortuga shell, and to share the results with you. I hope it sounds to you like someone having fun with music. Thank you for listening.” ’Derek Monypeny

DMPH is a new Sacramento-Oakland free improv trio consisting of Chad Stockdale (tenor sax), Kevin Corcoran (drums/percussion) and Derek Monypeny (guitar). This record finds them starting from intuitive scatter/splatter into a deep, dense windtunnel on Side A (Oakland), while on Side B (Sacramento) a similarly conversational beginning leads to a highly electricified freakout squall that might put some heads in mind of Last Exit. Clearly, these guys have done their homework. Derek plays guitar in the magnificent bay area group Oaxacan and Kevin has recorded with such luminaries as Tetuzi Akiyama and Christian Kiefer. Chad has previously appeared on records with Kevin and is one half of the free jazz duo Klondike & York.
