Difficult Art And Music
@difficultart
Music and Art label specialising in the avant-garde, the academic, the conceptual, and the challenging.
Scolpaig are trying to raise £200 funding for recording their next research: exploring the socio-geological landscape of North Wales. They've secured transport/accommodation - but need funding for a Geophone. To enable this we've released a new e.p! difficultartandmusic.bandcamp.com/album/medina
Business update: created a mailing list. Incorporates both label and mag, + research and design work. Planning a monthly update detailing what we've been up to. Took a while to find an affordable client, but Octopus mail seems good. Want to join the mailing list? Just reach out and I'll add you!
Head over to www.instagram.com/art_is_still... If you're interested! (or message me here!)
Email alias done - I have separate sub-domains for MEANS, DAAM, Loyalty Corps, and the main umbrella (Art Is Still Honest). Booked a place on a free course to get business skills + made an advert for a intern (unpaid but profit-share once it gets going).
Ok, it's here! My new site, incorporating the majority of my creative work. I've set up a great store too, where you can purchase prints, magazines, music, merch and more. Support grassroots and indie makers! www.artisstillhonest.com
Been doing a lot of deign work lately, and particularly proud of these shoes :) They are garish for sure, but that's kinda the point. Shoe's are about the only thing in life that is just allowed to be unreservedly fun/silly in my book, and these speak to that ethos!
Last night's launch gig was destroyed by the heat - simply too hot to convince people to head out and watch live music. But u can still support the artists effort and skill by checking out the tape release - every purchase makes a huge difference! difficultartandmusic.bandcamp.com/album/je-tem...
Grassroots art can't survive without your help. We're here to help grassroots experimental artists, musicians and writers showcase their work. But we can't do that without your help. Subscribe from just £3.
I don't think it would be possible to offer more great art at such a low cost. £3 a month! For a mag covering an international range of grassroots and experimental art / music / writing! This issue even has a grammy award winner in it! Seriously - @meansmagazine.bsky.social deserves your support.

Support truly challenging music. difficultartandmusic.bandcamp.com/album/je-tem...
Experimental songwriting - somewhere between slow core, alt-country, and post-rock. A new series of tapes exploring a new terrain - pick them up from the store now!
lo-fi electronic punk-poetry solo-project from anarchist, AuDHD, outsider-artist polymath Fidge Bibblyotek... anxious, paranoid tunes which are deceptive in their weirdness... pure outsider art borne of a singular vision so dogmatic in its focus that it becomes impossible to adequately digest.
C'mon! 20% off everything in the store! DAAM has HUGE plans for the next 12 months, assuming I don't go broke first. Help us help experimental grassroots music and get some cool music along the way!
We’re giving away DL’s to our latest releases, for free. Just join the mailing list. Tell your friends. Share. Support us to support underground experimental music and art.
Release day! You know what? This is really good. A bit different for DAAM, but really good. Do us a favor and check it out! difficultartandmusic.bandcamp.com/album/split-...
Sussex folk! The 'world's greatest band', Be Kind Cadaver are headlining The Albert in Brighton on Friday night! Get yourself down there!
Don't want to sound desperate, but we've had a Nearly 70% drop in advertisers for issue 6. At the same time, we got the most artist submissions ever, and the issue looks amazing! Just hoping we can afford to actually make the thing! Please consider supporting us (so we can support grassroots art!)
LP, novel, poster, art-print. membership card, CD, hologram card, and copy of our early compilation. All heading out to backers now! Head to our bandcamp store to pick up the album/book!
Only 1 copy left now. Will we sell out on release day? :)
This comes out on Friday - a really excellent double album of guitar and electronics: not ambient per se, but a wonderfully meandering electro-acoustic journey through a specific historical event. Available on DL and CD - including an A3 art map! difficultartandmusic.bandcamp.com/album/depth-...
Pashley Slim. Outsider art-pop, concrete-rap-punk. Arriving June.
It's @bandcamp.com friday. Capitalist hurrah. DAAM have got a whopping 4 new releases / preorders and I need YOU to buy them. They are brilliant, and all funds are going towards our next BIG release which has some REALLY famous ppl on it who have literally topped the charts. Exciting, right?
Support DAAM this bandcamp friday - loads of great new releases!
