The Soft Pink Truth: London Set On Saturday

Drew Daniel announces show at Vogue Fabrics after Matmos' Cafe Oto gig

Matmos’ Drew Daniel will be playing a set under his Soft Pink Truth guise straight after the electronics duo finish their gig at Cafe Oto this Saturday, May 31.

The Soft Pink Truth began as an outlet for Daniel to make poppy house music with a conceptual focus and this year sees him release an album of black metal covers, Why Do The Heathen Rage?, which is out on Thrill Jockey on June 16.
