Kosmogon day out

Nice day out with KOSMOGON. Sophie (Slavestate Mag, Club Distortion etc) and Nicklas (Anekdoten) being such good sports on our countryside tour south of Stockholm. Debut album “Mässan” will be out in August!
More pics eventually.

“Instrumentalists Sophie Linder and Nicklas Barker (Anekdoten) conjure up dark hallucinogenic visions and pastoral atmospheres using grand evocative electronic themes with spacey vintage synths, analog organs, and gentle Mellotrons” – Band Bio

Tried to get the same feeling as on the album cover. Ofc not EXACTLY the same but worked out ok I think:))

LG Petrov (17/2 1972 – 7/3 2021)

One of the finest, kindest, humblest, funniest guys on the planet left us. Hard to even imagine things getting back to normal and he won´t be around, on stage and at the venues. Sometimes this world sucks too much.

Troll shooting in Iceland

A weekend in Reykjavik for a MORTIIS photo shoot on friday and the Reykjavik Goth Night at Gaukurinn on Saturday. The event was really cool, but more about that later when I can check the pics from the venue. Need to sort out pics from the shoot first.
We got some obstacles and restrictions (lights, weather, temperature etc etc xD), but we had the most awesome help from Tómas and Anna, who drove us around and assisted when needed:) So we worked with what we got and I think we did alright. What a fantastic country!!!

DU XUYEAO – August 2017 in Beijing, China

This is my friend Du X., who owns the awesomest vintage clothing shop on Gulou Dongdajie in Beijing. Had a portrait shoot with him one morning before he opened the shop att 11AM.
Metalhead to the core (partly a sucky kind of melofolkdeath taste, but we do agree on many bands. Bathory, Motörhead and so on;) and a collector of all kinds of cool & creepy stuff. Like authentic kapala´s, shrunken heads, Navajo art and also all kinds of old tribal/ritual/sacrificial items from all over.
We were about to do one more shoot before I left Beijing for good for some weeks ago, but it didn´t happen. have to plan for it when I go and visit at some point. There have been some big changes going on in Beijing ever since I moved there May last year and they are far from done yet. Gulou Dongdajie is one of the most popular streets in town and the changes were about to happen there also. Big time. So no one really knows what´s going to happen. Du´s shop is still there for now at least. I´m keeping an eye on my old hood;)

Most of the collected items are not for sale, but they are all over the place, so even if you´re not into getting some nice garments, you can always pop in just to see all the other stuff.
So be sure to pay him a visit if you ever go to Beijing!!:)
