ØXN takes listeners on an extraordinary journey at the unexplored crossroads of sound, blending the haunting experimental doom folk of Lankum’s Radie Peat with the euphoric rhythms of Percolator’s John ‘Spud’ Murphy and Eleanor Myler, alongside Katie Kim’s mesmerizing Lynchian influences. This unique collaboration creates a sound that transcends time, combining elements of tradition with futuristic innovation.
Imagine merging the ethereal qualities of Enya, the cinematic grandeur of Ennio Morricone, the artistry of Richard Dawson, and the distinctive style of Neu!, while adding an unexpected twist. This is the enchanting sonic realm ØXN occupies. Originally a side project between Radie Peat and Katie Kim in 2018, the duo expanded into a rich multi-layered experience with the contributions of Murphy and Myler during the pandemic.
Their unforgettable live performance from a Martello tower in Dublin, created in collaboration with visual artist Vicky Langan, became one of the highlights of the streaming era. Now, ØXN is thrilled to unveil their debut album, Cyrm, recorded by Murphy at Hellfire Studios in just five exhilarating days in 2022 and released under the revitalized Claddagh Records.
