The Enlightenment Operatives Podcast - Episode 4 | Tristin Morin (Experimental Musician/Nomad)

In the forth episode of The Enlightenment Operatives Podcast host Charles F. Moreland III (music producer and video artist) interviews American Nomad experimental musician/nomad Tristin Morin aka Futurebum/Ovipositor Tapes. Tristin Morin is a musician / producer who records and performs as futurebum. Ranging stylistically from lo-fi ethereal electronic music, to deep frequency based drone, much of this project is arcane in nature. Futurebum also writes and performs as one half of the experimental electronic duo, Tryptamine (with Charles F. Moreland III), as well as his other side project, Ovipositor Tapes. For nearly a decade, much of futurebum’s music has been inspired by living and traveling abroad. Detourism is a written travelogue that aims to share some of these experiences, spanning twenty different countries and a pandemic. Check CharlesFMorelandIII.net for music/videos and more!
