DJ Slot at Berth of the Cool this Thursday


I am honoured to have been asked to do a DJ spot (first ever!) at the Berth of the Cool club in the White Rock Hotel Hastings on Thursday 14 November. I shall be in the esteemed company of Mr Bevis Frond Nick Saloman. Thanks to Ben Thompson and Ian Greensmith. I shall be spinning some al dente Italian film soundtracks and venturing into psychedelic jazz for an hour or so.

Mansion of Gloom Launch, Website and Trailer

 



The new book Mansion of Gloom: The Unsettling Legacy of Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher will be launched on 7 December at Tadhg Mae Projects in George Street, Hastings Old Town. Please note I shall be there between 3 and 5.30 (possibly staying a bit later) to sign books and have a chat. Apart from being an art gallery Tadhg Mae also sells Poe-related items, witchy stuff, candles and cards. 

There will be a limited edition art print by a local artist available with the book on this occasion. Quality 650-page paperback retailing at £25. Also includes a bookmark and separate booklet with Poe's tale in full (see website).

There will be other book-related events including a London launch and film and music evenings in 2025.
