One of these days I will have to actually finish a track, but for now enjoy another WIP. Sewer Rats, a trance inspired EBM track.

Cardiff Queer Orchestra

@cardiffqueerorch.bsky.social

And now, our musical director: Zachariah Robin!

A lavender background has the text ‘Zachariah Robin, bass trombonist, creative.’ written as a title in large purple letters. A portrait of a young white man wearing a blue band jacket with black and silver detailing is in the bottom right. He has short brown hair and glasses, and is playing a double trigger bass trombone. Underneath the purple text is the text (he/him) written in black text.

Black text on a lavender background reads ‘About the composer: Zachariah Robin was born 19th October 2001. He grew up between Cornwall and Devon. Robin moved to Wales in 2021 to study, and has lived in Cardiff since then. Robin is more of an instrumentalist than a composer, but has tried his hand at composition a couple of times. He’s played the bass trombone since 2019, and has been on tour to Belgium and a member of various ensembles in both England and Wales. Cardiff Queer Orchestra was founded by Robin, and he is proud to be part of this project. He is extremely passionate about community music. Robin is a queer, transgender, man.’ Underneath the text is an artistic drawing of a music stanza.

Black text on a lavender background reads ‘About the piece we’re playing: ‘Funky Socks’ is a jazzy blues piece. It was named during the early days of the pandemic, when peak entertainment was having interesting designs on your socks. The piece plays around with traditional twelve-bar blues. The melody is passed around the ensemble, and builds into a chaotic and bluesy ending. Improvisation is encouraged throughout the piece! ‘Funky Socks’ was originally written in 2020 for the instrumentation of Bb Clarinet, Trumpet, Bass Trombone, and Double Bass. We will be playing a 5-part version of the piece, which we typically use for busking purposes.’ Underneath the text is an artistic drawing of a music stanza.
