Iglooghost Exo A/V
_UK [LuckyMe]
The festival welcomes back Iglooghost, the alias of UK-based Seamus Malliagh. He will present his third album, Tidal Memory Exo, on the LUCKYME® label. Written in a storm-tossed UK coastal town, the album fuses detailed soundscapes with a fictional narrative about trilobite civilizations and mutant musical genres. His live show transforms this mythology into an immersive audio-visual experience.
Known for his experimental approach, Iglooghost has developed a genre-defying sonic universe intertwined with surreal and magical-realist narratives. On Tidal Memory Exo, inspired by his time spent in a flooded garage on the Kent coast, he creates a dystopian radio station atmosphere, combining his trademark electronic chaos with post-punk influences. The album’s music evokes prehistoric debris, rumors of undersea civilizations, and an underground music scene featuring genres such as Foamtek and Germ_Musik.
To expand the album’s universe, Malliagh launched exported. XYZ, an interactive site with fictional boards and a marketplace of imaginary artifacts. His live show, created with artist Yaz XL, blends theatrical and scenographic elements, including live metal detection and circular projections with cryptid-inspired imagery, offering an immersive experience beyond the musical.
