Kosmik Musik Launch Party with Ben Wheatley and Joe Currie
CHANGE OF DATE
We're pleased to welcome writer/director Ben Wheatley and artist Joe Currie to the shop for the launch party of KOSMIK MUSIK, a new sci-fi epic in collaboration with musical group BEAK>. Ben and Joe will be joining us on Saturday 29th October, from 7-9pm.
Wheatley is best known as a film maker, directing and writing features such as In the Earth, Sightseers and Kill List. Kosmik Musik is a psychedelic sci-fi reminiscient of 2000AD, Doctor Who, the works of Douglas Adams, Star Trek and other English sci-fi classics. Written by Ben Wheately and drawn by Joe Currie, complete with a soundtrack by experimental rock band, BEAK>, it will be available in two very limited slip-case editions, including the soundtrack on CD and vinyl. Here's some words from the publisher:
The galaxy is a big place – but not big enough for Mick and Eve as they are chased across it by cops, interdimensional plunderers, rogue artificial intelligences, middle-aged assassins and a third-tier superhero team.
Come with us on a rip roaring, planet hopping adventure. Punches will be thrown, tears will be shed and music will be played on vinyl on vintage record players as Mick and Eve try to solve every sentient creature’s fundamental questions like why and what… and eh?
Yes, dear reader, KOSMIK MUSIK will unlock some of the more pressing mysteries of the universe.
Make sure not to miss out on this one and get yourselves down to the store on Saturday 29th October, from 7-9pm. You'll also be able to pre-order a signed copy of Kosmik Musik from our website for collection or mail order if you prefer by clicking here.
