Wiste is a collection of projects by Michael Buining that embrace a multitude of musical styles into a single family.
“Pieces” is a singer/songwriter project with stories of gentle love. “Another Somewhere” is in the Middle-of-the-Road / Country genre with extrospective songs, many being from songwriting commissions; and “Desire” is a 1970’s inspired blues/rock collection that focus on a rythmic vibe that varies throughout the project culminating in an 8-minute epic largely instrumental journey.
Yet to be released is “Serenity Now”- a collection of instrumental ambience; “The Darkness”- a blues, roots & dark country collection; and “Aaarrrgh”- a set of heavy-hard rock stories.
The project came about after over a decade of songwriting, recording, performing and a long term search for a musical home that ended up in diverse places and spaces that are sometimes worlds apart but are united together through themes of love, longing, desperation and hope.
The first release has just been made- “Trilogy”. Available on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music.
