Angels - The xx (cover)





Enough money for a phone and internet, too unskilled to busk, here I cover a song I dedicate to the angels I've met in my life.
Here now, in 3D... get your specs on.

COLLABORATE: HARRY SLATER

"i dont know where im gunna be in the next hour i could end up abducted by aliens or down the rabbit hole smoking dmt with alice"


It all started one lonely night on the 4th of February, when through the magical powers of the interwebz, I attached a little message to a mechanical owl who flew all the way to Glossop, Manchester to hinder the collision of our super powers.

The wizard of Glossop replied and said, 'yer man'.
Slater working on latest collaboration.



This wizard is known as H. Slater, and with the power of his wand, he creates magical prints.
His garage, a studio, the music, magic and the activation of the pineal gland are his inspirations. Dub, house, reggae, new world, tech, and electro are what he locomotes and draws to. 



Young and totally into smashing TV's and absorbing energy from spirit enhancing crystals, this old soul has shared his talent so that we may be busy with creating eye candy feeding your retina's cones (colour sensing) and rods (light sensing). 




Slater's patterning, basic yet intricate designs.

"when i draw i feel like i'm doing something ancient"
This vegan-non-tap-water-drinking wizard spends much time skateboarding; hanging out in forests and 
believes in aliens. 
"ive learnt to try an detach from how others carry themselves its hard when they insist on project onto you and bringing there luggage in your hallway but i guess that side is what fuels the passion to express..." 
"i am a tribesman without a tribe lost in a strange place. i also think that the ebony race of humanoid is the best design from an artistic perspective."  
"a balance between technology and nature and we lived in the forest but with electricity and would much prefer it if everyone just helped each other"
So do I Slater, so do I.

"art is my escape it is also my purpose i am here to manifest what is deeply embedded"

Shapes within other shapes. SHAPE INCEPTION.



Slater works with ink and gel pens, tools of the doodle trade creating intricate pattern making.


Slater also enjoys the satirical work of Pawła Kuczyńskiego.  




Recently, I asked Slater if he would do a collaboration with me... 


Will keep you posted!
