Spotlights @spotlightsmusic at The Black Heart 11/06/24 An intense set that will surely be cherished by all attendees. Thanks to Spotlights for fitting this headline set into their schedule as they supported Mr Bungle! I've been following them since Seismic, which was my 2017 soundtrack, so it felt like a homecoming. Canon RP 50mm (some 16mm) with streak filter and prism, edited with DxO PureRAW, RNI Films & Lightroom. #shoegaze #drone #doommetal @ourblackheart #50mm #prismphotography #rnifilms #dxopureraw

Dvne at Desertfest 2024, headlining the Dingwalls stage. Finally catching this band on camera after first bopping Asheran back in 2017, then enjoying their ATG23 set. Voidkind is them at the best they've been yet, and I see no signs of them slowing down. @dvne_uk @desertfest_london Shot for @boolintunes @gardeniapublicity @dingwallscamden Canon RP 50mm and 16mm, single exposures with cokin, prism, and other filters, lightroom edited #gigphotography #doommetal #progmetal #postmetal #camden #desertfest #canonrp #50mm #cokin

Gozer at Desertfest 2024, the Black Heart stage. Sounded tremendous, tender, and emotional during my painfully quick shoot. Canon RP with 50mm f1.8, prism and lightroom edits. @wearegozer @ourblackheart @desertfest_london Shot for @boolintunes @gardeniapublicity #gigphotography #postmetal #prismphotography #canonrp #blackandwhite (Dobbin: please excuse the re-upload, learning how to do these collab posts!)

Kulk at Desertfest 2024, Dingwalls stage Super noisy Human Worth duo with a great new album just out. @kulkband @humanworthmusic @desertfest_london Shot for @boolintunes @gardeniapublicity @dingwallscamden Canon RP 50mm F1.8 (one 16mm shot) with cokin filters and lightroom edits. #gigphotography #noiserock #humanworthmusic #camden #desertfest #canonrp #50mm #cokin

Morag Tong X Morrowind at Desertfest 2024 My hardest photoshoot yet. Didn't even manage to get any shots of the Shine of Azura because a diseased alit chased me down, not to mention one of the band members personally showed up to finish me off (see image 9). Fortunately the music was absolutely majestic, grand, and banging. Canon RP 50 and 16mm, lightroom edits, digitally collaged with screenshots of Morrowind GOTY Edition. @morag.tong Shot for @boolintunes @desertfest_london @dingwallscamden #doommetal #postrock #camden #morrowind #sedyaneed #balmora #ghostgate #vivec #vvardenfell #canonrp #50mm #collage #digitalcollage #videogamesinreallife

Godflesh at Desertfest London 2024 Wrapping up Desertfest with an amazing set that generated a unique atmosphere and unhinged the audience. Hopefully I've managed to reflect that mood in these shots. It goes without saying, but it was an immense privilege to photograph such an important member of the noise scene across his various projects. Go stream the split new Final album! Single exposures, Canon RP 50mm f1.8, with prism and other filters, colour edited in Lightroom @godfleshofficial @justinkbroadrick @desertfest_london Shot for @boolintunes @gardeniapublicity #industrial #postpunk #industrialmetal #prismphotography #london #electricballroom #camden #gigphotography

Ozric Tentacles at Desertfest London 2024 You wouldn't think the first band I'd see people mosh to at the stoner metal festival would be for a psych prog band, but the hype couldn't be contained for Ozric Tentacles! Delightful set with lots of material from the stunning Lotus Unfolding, and the ideal band to flex my camera trickery with. Single exposures, Canon RP 50mm f1.8 or 16mm f2.6, with prism and other filters, colour edited in Lightroom @ozrictentaclesofficial Performing are @edozric @saskiamaxwellmusic @silasneptune @garvoid and Vinny Shillito @desertfest_london Shot for @boolintunes @gardeniapublicity #psychadelic #progressiverock #psychrock #jamband #prismphotography #london #electricballroom #camden #gigphotography
