Shell Company / Kop-Z / Porter Brook

Shell Company -

Manchester / Glasgow trio make the trip to Sheffield in support of their most recent record Locket, following releases for Rainy Millers Fixed Abode label and Glasgow's NUMBERS. Released by Accidental Meetings, co-produced by FUMU and featuring guest turns from Richie Culver and LINTD the 6 tracker blends hushed poetry with digital ambience and post rock and dream pop influenced guitar work..

Boomkat described the record as: "seducing right under the skin of their own sound, one tumescent with post-ecto glow and dewy with Salford-via-Maryhill drizzle in all the soft places".

Kop-Z -

Daniel Ochieng Odhis Copsey, known artistically as Kop-Z, is a Kenyan-British audio-visual artist, head of label 'Digita Ngeche', and co-organiser of the eclectic party ‘Bodyworks.’ His creative journey is profoundly shaped by his upbringing on the industrial outskirts of Salford alongside the juxtaposed reality of his East African roots. His artistic expression represents a fusion of diverse musical genres, drawing influences from rave, post-punk, reggae, and jungle, carving out his own individualistic sector of electronic tech rebellion.

From a young age, Kop-Z developed a deep interest in the history and geography of his environment, coupled with a fascination for the digital realm. His passion for video games, science fiction, and computer technology has significantly informed his artistic vision, allowing him to seamlessly merge both physical and digital worlds.
