The person behind the part

Where the rhythms meet.

Money Raines is the stage name of David Raines, the creator of these four virtual instrumental band worlds. His established drummer identity uses his own likeness and a silver Rogers acoustic kit paired with red electronic drums, pads, percussion, and a chrome rack.

Within Ember Meridian, his drummer persona sits alongside Vera Calder’s percussion, connecting the string and horn musicians to the electronic layers. The eight-member concept gives the rhythm section a conversation of its own.

The band recordings were created with Suno. This profile describes David’s stage identity and the band’s creative concept; it does not claim that the pictured lineup performed those recordings.
