About the artists:

David Reed performs as a soloist under the moniker Envenomist (CMH). Some people equate David Reed’s solo project Envenomist (CMH) with science fiction film scores; others envision solitary nocturnal travels through bleak urban settings. A fundamental strength of Envenomist is that these illusory backdrops remain open to interpretation. Taking inspiration from industrial, ambient, and the kosmische scenes along with altered states of consciousness, the oceanic abyss, and deep space, Reed has been producing desolate soundscapes under the Envenomist moniker since 2005.
Chris Weldon has been engaging in creative endeavors for you to see, hear, taste and recall for several decades.
