Some new posts up on my blog… A bit about why I’m looking forward to @prismatic.leeds tomorrow at @imaginarium_leeds and also why I’m not going to perform. This isn’t just an overview of the event, it’s more a bit of self-reflection. I’ve also written a short piece about some record reviews I’ve done recently (on the new @weapons_of_desire EP, the new one from @planetorangerecords and one a while ago on the EP by @_mazewski on @brutaz ) for @hideous.things and linked to them.

Thursday February 2nd will see the first @prismatic.leeds event to take place at our @imaginarium_leeds Founded and led by my good pal @josefushaze Prismatic is a spoken word event with visuals and an ambient soundtrack (I believe @philio.w will be the DJ at this one). There’s a performer callout - of you’re interested, contact @prismatic.leeds I am possibly performing at this one myself. I haven’t decided yet if I have the nerve. Even though I’ve done performy stuff all my life, I feel that standing up and speaking (rather than singing) something that you have written yourself is quite a thing. The performers at the previous ones have been amazing, and there’s a video on YouTube of the event that was streamed during lockdown, which is worth checking out… I’ve added the link to my linktree (bio or below if facebook) https://linktr.ee/RoyaBrehl #prismaticleeds #leedslit #lau #spokenword #storytelling #imaginariumleeds #performancepoetry https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn1vnm_Mx9b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Buzzed to have a mix out on this mix series from the awesome @chug_club 💜 #chugclub #mixseries #leedsmusicscene #electronicmusic #royabrehl /////////////////////////// Posted @withrepost • @chug_club For our next chug guest mix we introduce @royabrehl , local favourite and one of the heads behind Leeds’ new alternative event space @imaginarium_leeds . The Imaginarium is a particularly special venue. A symbol of the re-emerging underground scene post covid 🌱 These intimate settings (Wharf Chambers, Outlaws Yacht Club, The Imaginarium to name only a few) are beloved places for the music, art and cultures we love. Carrying the torch at a time of need and acting as spaces of community and belonging for all that need it. Aside from this Roya is a super talented DJ in her own right. She’s played Holistic Missile and Beatherder as well as the legendary Golden Lion in Todmorden. Locally Roya has played all over, but you can catch her regularly on @narr.radio . Roya is another beloved member of our amazing local scene and we are honoured to add to the series with this mix from her 🖤 Link to Soundcloud in bio. Happy ny chug friends, love Chug Club 😽 xoxo https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm6PSJmAfXz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some new posts on my rather neglected blog… First pic is of one of several polystyrene heads gifted to me at our old @imaginarium_leeds (most of these still survive). This one looks a bit like how I felt at the end of taking down our old space. Fast forward a year and a month, and things are quite different… I’ve written about that, and also written a review of the wonderful book The Art of Ecstasy, created by @vintagediscobiscuit Linktree bio for the blog link, or: https://royabrehl.com #imaginariumleeds #vintagediscobiscuit #theartofecstasy #blog #bookreview #writing #polystyrenehead https://www.instagram.com/p/CmwGIimsEgR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
