Osaka Kaos

A Weekend’s Grift with Darkher
Although I’m often to be found helping out local siren DARKHER in all my usual capacities, last weekend reminded me just why the music draws me in. The final dates of an intimate candlelit tour alongside GRIFT and CARCASS OF SIGHS, it fell to Stephen and Karen of The Velvet Sheep to handle merchandise and…

Selim Lemouchi (1980 – 2014)

Supporting local prog-goth rockers, (and old friends), Dawn of Elysium at the Lending Room in Leeds. As we’ve been working together on a sci-fi short film in recent months, I prepared some…
