A DGM Space Odyssey

A DGM Space Odyssey. It is amazing to think that the entire history of King Crimson to date has occurred in the time elapsed since the first crewed test flight to the moon, Apollo 8, December 21-27 1968, and the current Artemis II mission, returning to the moon ahead of a projected landing on the lunar surface in 2028.  One world: a new view of our own island from the Orion spacecraft (photo:...

This Week In DGM World

An update from the new studio. Now clad in natural wood, it’s all looking wonderfully Scandi, although any resemblance to a sauna ends there as work is ongoing to install the insulation and soundproofing. The studio is being constructed on the site of a building formerly known as The Dental Laboratory — we’re just hoping it’s not going to be called Denture Studios.  Looking forward to...

Collectors’ Club and Stormy Selections on CD.

New from Burning Shed. We have four essential DGM Collectors’ Club releases in stock and shipping now, alongside Mr Stormy's seventh selection of previously unearthed treats from the DGM archives. The Beat Club Bremen 1972 chronicles the first formal appearance of the astonishing Bruford/Cross/Fripp/Muir/Wetton line-up, Live At Fillmore East (November 21 & 22, 1969) captures the...

This Week in DGM World.

Members of the team gathered in person this week, without the use of Zoom or any other artificial means, for a day of archive fun. A version of Eye Of The Needle unlike any you have heard before was playing in the studio. Clue: it’s from before the advent of Guitar Craft.

Also on this auspicious occasion, we began a partnership with Nugs, releasing a King Crimson tour from the archives each month for streaming, download and on-demand CD.

A very happy festive season to all our visitors from the DGM Team. With our most recent release from Japan 2015 just launched, here we revisit the band's performance in Osaka from 10 years ago, with a seasonal message of Peace from King Crimson and everyone at DGM.

Dave Ball (1959–2025)

Dave Ball has died aged 66. Born in Blackpool in 1959, Ball studied art in Leeds, where he met singer Marc Almond. Together they formed Soft Cell, whose 1981 cover of Tainted Love became a global hit and a defining anthem of the synth-pop era. Their debut album Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret blended electronic minimalism with seedy glamour and emotional intensity, influencing generations of pop and...
