New Live Recording Release! ✨
Hey everyone,
We’re thrilled to share one of our live recordings from the Sound Experience sound art exhibition at Run Pony Run Studios in McAllen, TX is now out on Bandcamp and all your favorite streaming platforms!
It was captured during a truly magical evening where art and music came together in beautiful ways. A huge shoutout to Zachary of Run Pony Run for opening up the space and fostering such a vibrant community where creativity can thrive but also for releasing this recording on his platform label!
This recording is a quiet reminder of the delicate balance between chaos and harmony, and how something truly special can emerge when disparate elements unite. We hope it brings you a sense of connection and inspiration, just as it did for us that night.

Again excited to present you 'Scattered Colours' which is NOW available through my great friend's label
LISTEN / PURCHASE:
auralcanyonmusic.bandcamp.com/album/scattered-colo…
This album is a dynamic blend of organic and electronic sounds that delve into the unknown, unknown experiences of human nature and it's hidden tangle of emotion, symbolic of the vast spectrum of emotions of those living with autism. Experimentation using Muse EEG headband to generate neurofeedback into sonic landscapes, alternative guitar tuning and field recordings. Listeners will experience the idiosyncratic soundscapes, often even eerie classical interludes.
All music written, recorded & produced using VST synths, Muse EEG headset, Guitars, and field recordings

A latest collection of meditative, lustrous compositions with haunting gloomy strings to express tragic, melancholy and well-being. Where the world quietly sing their song is about existential drift and silence in which was made in reverence to that space. As COVID-19 has taken many lives including some family members and friends. The sense of purposelessness that pervades the existence is however can be replaced by a sense of connection and love, which can emerges from interactions with one another. As we cope with losses, different drifts, grief and however finding ourselves. This album is inspired by the movie “Lost in Translation”

I present you the first release of 2021 titled "Nocturne"
It's officially available through Heart Dance Records Bandcamp page to purchase a CD / digital and your preferred streaming services.
Enormous thanks to my friends & Family who are involved in this record Sherry Finzer, Guadalupe Duque, Drew Sullivan & Fernando Gracia
(Info about this album)
Nocturne is a work of art dealing with evening or night. A calm melancholy mood, and a clear melody floating with orchestra chambers, minimal field recordings and some faint drone billows to accompany with the dreamy compositions.
The album is a follow up of “Aubade”. It represents the evening scenery and reflective emotions of sadness, anxiety, despair and loneliness during personal experiences. Damien hopes to bring listeners into healing and reflect as to tell us that we need to take care of ourselves and help others. We are not alone.
Written, recorded & Produced by Damien Duque
Additional production on “From the deepest wells of silence” by Fernando Garcia
Additional Guitar Solo on "Evanescent” by Guadalupe Duque
