In the dim hours of Monday morning our first annual Psychic Circle drew itself to a close, leaving behind the echoes of saw waves and creaky dance floors rattling around our weary yet ecstatic minds. The fest, born from our own wave night Second Sight, held the same modest credos as before - to bring the culture of dark music together that is spread too thin across our wonderful city. I can now say with confidence that Psychic Circle would've been entirely impossible without the support of the "Children of the Night" who filled up all four venues. You guys make this all worth doing and more importantly, it is YOU that makes Seattle a better place to live. Thank you!

Expect a festival recap with photos later on this week. Thanks to all who came out to all four shows and helped us make it a huge success for the venues and the bands! We love you Seattle!

Psychic Circle rages on! Demdike Stare has crossed an ocean to haunt us with their unique form of macabre minimalism and we couldn't be more excited! If you're a fan of Giallo films and specifically their eerie, disheartening scores of terror, you won't want to miss this. All the way from Manchester Demdike Stare have been cutting a swath out of a death shroud all up the west coast on this their very first tour in the states. From what we've heard the rest of the west coast dates have been legendary. Do not sleep on this one.

Last night was the first night of our four day mini-fest known as Psychic Circle and it was such a radical show! Thanks to Bruno from Light Asylum for coming out to DJ last minute and Braxton & Palmer absolutely shone. It was incredible, and if you didn't get a chance to get our new magazine DETHBOOK you can get one over at the shop now or you can pick one up in Seattle over at our favorite store Alive & Well. Thanks to all of you who came out and danced the night away with us! 

Day two starts tonight at 10pm at Electric Tea Garden with Litanic Mask and Light Asylum along with our resident Second Sight DJs. After seeing Light Asylum's amazing set last year at Neumos I am definitely psyched to see them at our small, loud-as-fuck, DIY club. It's going to be fucking great.

We will also have these beautiful silk screened festival posters available for sale tonight and at the next two shows - if they don't all get snatched up first - so if your interested pick one up before they vanish. Limited to 150 prints and measuring 18"x 28" these amazing CMYK prints we're hand screened by our friends over at Broken Press and we couldn't be more happy with the way they turned out. Absolutely stunning work guys.

That's all for now, we'll have an update for you all tomorrow about day 3 of our fest and specifically the insanely good band known as Demdike Stare.

Click on the flyers below to go to the FB page, I'll be posting more info in the next couple days! Hope to see you all at the shows!

Our good friend N|GHTCH|LDE just did a very futuristic and heavy remix of the song "Happiness" by the band Greenhorse. You can download it below from Soundcloud. They also sent me a picture of them hanging out on the beach that's really cool too. 

 

Some of our favorite folks are getting together for an evening of rad times in New York City, and you are invited. You must RSVP with Salvor Projects to attend. rsvp@salvorprojects.com. Click the flyer below to go to the FB page. 

As many of you have come to know being unwilling subjects of my constant ramblings on this blog - in addition to making clothes for your bodies - I also make music for your ears. Both of my bands, Cross and King Dude are playing Chaos in Tejas this year and I couldn't be more excited. The line ups for both nights are all-killer and no-filler so I expect to see many of you there!
