So I have a new music project starting up. It's called Blóðnætur which means 'blood nights' in Icelandic. It's made up of myself (in case you didn't know, my other music foray is Witch Folk band Cave Mouth) and musican/composer JD Frew of horror synth project Bogwitch. We're two weird folk creating weird music in… Continue reading Blóðnætur – Pet Sematary
It was the goddess of dark blogging Renee Ruin who introduced me to the ambient, ritualistic sounds of Kabukimono. Since yesterday I've been listening to nothing but her release Strega. Seriously, I can't stop myself. I've been fucking enchanted. It is, hands down, one of the best things I have EVER heard, especially the track… Continue reading Sound Of The Day : Kabukimono

It's all about the emotion with Highlonesome. Besotted with their track Devil At The Door. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erukHUyLQcA

You Tube had a treat for me today, a track by Emily Jane White which I hadn't heard before. Hope you enjoy Frozen Garden just as much as I have. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B30-sKKLuJU
