An egg shaped character stomping through purple clouds. It has two muscular arms emerging from about two thirds of the way up the egg, the shoulders of which form the brow for glowing pink eyes. It has a large lower jaw jutting over the front of the brow and small legs that disappear into the purple fog. It looks furious.
Drawn an angry egg.

Anyway Iβm really stressed about this whole self employed things and organisation and promotion and affording to live so if anyone wants to commission something or give me literally any useful advice on making this work as a socially inept autist who may well just be bad at art then give me a shout

A huge lumpen monster in full oranges and blacks against a dark purple and orange backdrop. Itβs mouthy and what might be itβs nostrils and eyes are full with fiery glow and billowing smoke and it sits in a cloud of dark brown or black smoke.
Drawn a big lad

Listened to Nadja during: nadja.bandcamp.com/album/cut
A flesh coloured alien creature against a sand coloured backdrop. It has a long featureless head and two arms ending in tentacle like fingers. It stands on four legs splayed out from a central torso, which is wrinkled and has what look like plates running up the front. To the right is a block of interlaced straight lines, with what looks like some kind of abstract script below it.
Drawn a creature.

A portrait or a vaguely humanoid figure in oranges, yellows and red. The head is a featureless lump bar a line of black gem like eyes and the torso is fluid and lumpen. It looks as if the character is within somewhere very hot, as if it lives inside a sun.
Drawn a sun dweller.

Oh thereβs always a promoter and a venue, and if itβs sometimes you get lucky and they do things, but as Iβve got close to βprofessionalsβ of late the attitude seems to be that the gig gets booked and thatβs it unless you chase. And apparently thatβs because someone can do the chasing as a job now?

Apparently promoters donβt send you the specifics for a gig anymore and you are supposed to βadvanceβ it which is something someone can charge for doing. Remember when people did this stuff because they cared about it and it thought it was good?
DIY or Die etc etc
Wild that thereβs a whole industry of βbooking agentsβ whoβs job it is to email about booking bands and a whole industry of βevents promotersβ whoβs job it is to say βokβ, and then nobody does anything unless prompted and people charge to send emails
The Music Industry is fucking leprous isnβt it.
Canβt wait to get loads of splinters forever.
19.07.2025 10:26 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Similarly I really like the recording on Life Metal and Pyroclasts but I kinda wanted them to do more with it? I feel like maybe the point at the moment is to get at the distilled down to itβs essence drone stuff, but I was really into the various guests and collabs etc around Monoliths time
19.07.2025 08:29 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yeah I generally like all their stuff but post Monoliths it felt maybe less adventurous? Didnβt spend a lot of time with Kannon and Iβve just found the record moving so Iβll have to give it another go
