GRIMM GRIMM
Grimm Grimm is the space-folk solo project of Koichi Yamanoha, a London-based Tokyo native and former 1/3 of cult psychedelic punks Screaming Tea Party. With Yamanoha as the lynch pin, Grimm Grimm features a shifting line-up of collaborators that includes Le Volume Courbe and Bo Ningen. Packed with hooks, the Grimm Grimm sound mixes the melancholic beauty and noise of Nico, the soundscapes of Eno and the melodies of The Beatles with baroque flourishes and a passing nod the otherworldly pop sensibility of Joe Meek.

MOON ZERO
Moon Zero is the enigmatic and ethereal drone ambient noise project of London-based sound artist, Tim Garratt. Moon Zero released 2 new LPs "Tombs" and "Loss" on Denovail Records in April 2014. He captured these cathartic tapestries of sound onto 8-track at St George In The East Church in Shadwell, London to ethereal and other-worldly affect. It’s like looking into a water that casts a reflection of your image where faint traces of movement are abound in abundance and the remembrance of what once was is still intact. Tombs represents this delicacy in a weighty essence of timbres and pitches that floats the minds imagination into suspended dream states.
