I am now member and co-owner of a music cooperative called Subvert which is about giving power back from music publishers and distribituors to creators. You can see my artist profile and listen to and buy my music here with profits going directly to me and not to any third parties. Visual design by Volker Schütz. Listen to and buy my music here.
Thank you Nick for inviting me to support the magical Tondeuse alongside the wonderful Nathan Stoker at The Peer Hat — a ‘chouette’ evening all around surrounding by friends.

I feel privileged to have attended the inspiring Sonic Conferences conference on crafting realities through artistic research at the Orpheus Institute in magical Ghent. It has been nurturing to meet new people and learn about projects and concepts which intersect with my interests whilst stimulating new thoughts and ideas.
Thank you Rick Dark Fidelity Hifi for inviting me to play at Sight and Sound 5 at Grit Studios Manchester. In tune with the theme of textured sound, I brought my new C-Series Pro+ contact mic developed by sound artist Jess Riley French and sampled bubble wrap alongside using the Wobbulator by Delia Derbyshire Day — it was exciting to use both as live instruments to add more layers to my music. My set was elevated by the beautiful visuals provided by Adrian from Hollowsphere AV and documented by Norrisette — thank you both.
Thank you kaoti for creating koti parti playground at Derby Brewery Arms: a community space to connect, party and experiment. I used an old SNES controller to bring the playfulness and excitement I felt as a child when playing Super Nintendo to my music. I fittingly integrated some of my first old electronic music experiments but also my Mop the Floor remix for Flowers of Evil whilst Phia Sky was doing sound and new sounds. All stars aligned. Thank you Sara Etasse for the professional shots.
I am thrilled to perform at Sight & Sound 5 Grit Studios Manchester (above Pong & Puck, M3 4EN) on Sunday 12 April from 5 pm. Thank you Dark Fidelity Hifi for inviting me along. Free entry.
Come and join the koti parti playground. An electric night of high energy music, DJs, stalls and more! For the love of creating and making. Get your tickets here.
Thank you T.R. Burge And The Temple for your friendship and the invitation to open for your debut live gig at the stunning Sacred Trinity Church. It felt inspiring preparing a set specific to the occasion based on our conversations and the venue whilst also integrating my poetry into my life set for the first time. I also loved contributing to Godache before and hearing the whole album live was beautiful – I can’t wait for it to come out. Thank you Emily Jade Hagan whose miraculous pictures capture the atmosphere so well. Thank you as well to Kuba Lewandowski for the incredible sound and tech support.
I am thrilled to announce that I will be opening for T.R. Burge And The Temple at Sacred Trinity Church on February 20th. It will be their debut live gig and I am fortunate to have contributed to a live performance and music video of Godache, recorded at the legendary Blueprint Studios.
Get your tickets, enjoy the live video and see you there! ✨
It was wonderful being back at The Ferret last night.
In 2018 I played some early versions of my first tracks at an music open mic hosted by Johnny Jay. This event concluded The Present and Future of Electronic Live Music conference at UCLan organised by Tony Rigg where I presented my MA thesis on DIY culture in Manchester’s electronic music scene.
In 2019 I was then invited back by Tony Rigg to perform at the Festival of Music and Culture alongside a Chinese opera singer and an Indian dancer.
This time around I joined other electronic music producers who also happen to promote. The idea was to not run our respective events, but just hang out and play our own music. It was an inspiring and uplifting evening!
