"Fresh from dropping his debut LP on Blackest Ever Black, he’ll play live alongside a heavyweight all-star cast with mutant dub-tek hybrids from John T. Gast, scuzzy improv punk via EP/64, distorto beatnik beatz from ASDA and eyes-down melancholia courtesy of local Young Echo auxiliary unit Jabu. ? Tickets: hdfst.uk/E51282 ?"

Ossia presents 'Devils Dance'
feat. Ossia (Blackest Ever Black/Young Echo, live) + special guest live acts & DJs TBA
Bristol-raised, Berlin-based sound warrior Ossia and a pack of allies from the edgelands between dub, electronics, noise and post-punk come together in the heart of St Paul's to celebrate 'Devil's Dance', his long-awaited debut LP dropping in February on Blackest Ever Black. An album launch with a serrated sonic spike in the party punch.
OSSIA
Ossia's sound world is an amalgamation of heavy-weather, beyond-good-and-evil soundsystem poetics, channelling raw and rootical techno, isolationist abstraction, and dub at its most turbulent, raw-nerved and space-time-warping.
Through running a range of record labels and being a member of Bristol’s Young Echo Sound, he has amassed a wide knowledge and in-depth understanding of music that informs his own skewed, futuristic drenched-in-dread aesthetic and his unhinged take on soundsystem & club music.
Following a run of 12" releases for Berceuse Heroique, Blackest Ever Black and a selection of his own labels, his debut album 'Devils Dance' sees a return to Blackest Ever Black - channelling tail-thrashing dancehall pressure and art-of-darkness ambience and introspection.
