Ak'chamel has built a solid reputation as one of the most compelling stage projects of recent years. Wearing nightmarish costumes and engaging in hallucinatory rituals. Their singular sound comprising desert-scorched psychedelia, post-apocalyptic shamanism, and lo-fi ritual-folk is as unique as the physical theater of their live performances.
Authors of around fifteen cassettes, three vinyl LP’s and several cryptic VHS videos, they have been active for over a decade performing major festivals on both sides of the Atlantic garnering press from VICE, Consequence, The Wire, and many more.
"Ak'chamel's deliberately lo-fi, murky temple music conjures not only the post-industrial rituals lusting for the pagan days of Druidic Britain but also the pantheistic, impishly playful rhythms from Thai temple music as well as some choice nods to the occult ethnomusicology of their professed influences, The Sun City Girls." -aQuarius Records

Christina Deva is a Greek vocal based musician and artist, interested in raw and unfiltered expression, and the power of transformation through the voice. Through her music Christina Deva aims to be a mirror of transpersonal metaphors that reflect the horrifying beauty of being alive.
Vocalising is perceived as a surrender of the human vessel, through which the spirits flow, morph and transmute, where gender dissolves, where age dissolves, where there is no distinction between the ugly and the beautiful, the darkness and the light.
In her solo work, the lyrical aspects of her music are birthed as poetry with surreal symbolism, archetypal energies, states of transcendence and descendence, an animistic realm where threads of interconnection between all are unveiled.
