Rough Days For Diamond Trade “Doubtful Mind” from LOOKING FORWARD on Vimeo.

This weekend gone saw the annual BRNLV Festival (were you there folks?) at the Brixton Windmill, which doubled as a tenth anniversary celebration for Brainlove Records. Several of the artists are sticking around to do some more shows in London this week – Bastardgeist, Matt Riviere.

Joining them on Wednesday, May 15, at The Black Heart in Camden will be Frederik Sølberg, aka Rough Days for Diamond Trade, today’s First Sight. Frederik is an award-winning filmmaker back home in Denmark and he’s been getting lots of influential muso-type people very excited indeed. We’re reminded of Hot Chip at their most delicately introspective, but that may just be us.

Don’t worry if you can’t make it down to The Black Heart – Sølberg will also be playing the following night (May 16) at The Water Rats. Debut EP Somewhere is out now via Looking Forward.
