OCTOBER 2024 - Update:
Along with the below music festivals that we are planning to organise sometime in 2025, we are also looking into reviving some of our past music festivals that we hosted several years ago in Hartlepool, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, many years ago now... including; Questing Wasteland Festival, Grave N Steel Festival, and Darker Side of Twilight.
Dates and Venues for the planned festivals have all yet to be announced... but we want to put on something very special including at least two festivals which will be 2 or 3 day All-Dayer events... potentially in Sheffield, as well as other cities around the UK.
Venues interested in us holding our events should email us at: dmmg.management@gmail.com
Artists and Bands who would like to play at our events should also email us at the above email address, and not via Social Media, or via Messenger, etc. NOTE: we also prefer physical promotional packs, a CD with your music, and a CD-ROM with your promo pack is fine too... We are a little Old-School we like to have something we can hold and physically touch and see... rather than just on a computer screen, or phone screen, or screen on another device staring into the cyber-space void... Email us; and we will be happy to forward you a snail-mail address where you can send a physical promo pack...!!!!
Heck... if you really impress us... we may even review your music and give it a plug on the website here.... as we are looking at adding a REVIEWS Page on this very labels website.... more news on that soon, via elsewhere on the DMMG website...!!!!

..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Please Note: As a label we are not a huge fan of Industrial Music, and never have been, 80's synth pop electronica yes with hints of techno and dance yes, neo-clasical darkwave electronica yes, avante-garde electronica yes, classical orchestration yes, dark ambient yes, dark electro pop yes, but not heavy bleepy industrial where the beats are repetitive and down-right just boring to us... we want melody, and instrumental creativity, rather than just dark rhythm and bass and drum loops with keyboards and synths samples... sorry this is just our preference!!!
Classical and Folk Music mixed with Electronica definitely... Metal and Rock music mixed with symphonic orchestration definitely, Gothic Rock mixed with 80's synth electronica of course... Ethereal Wave yes please...
But bands like Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, Skinny Puppy, Rammstein, Coil, KMFDM, Front Line Assembly, Cabaret Voltaire, Kovenant, etc they are not our thing...
The bands we do like who have an Industrial slight edge or who are most definitely gothic rock tend to be from the emergence of the 1990's Gothic, Darkwave, EBM, scenes... Midnight Configuration, Faithful Dawn, Suspiria, Incubus Succubus/Inkubus Sukkubus, Faith & The Muse, Die Laughing, 13 Candles, Malaise, The Merry Thoughts, The Whores of Babylon, Rosetta Stone, Star Industry, Dead Souls Rising, Two Witches, Seize, Weltenbrand, Love Lies Bleeding, Love Like Blood, Cries of Tammuz, and many, many others.... along with other gothic and darkwave progenitors such as; Fields of the Nephilim, All About Eve, The Cult, Sisters of Mercy, The Cure, Siouxsie & the Banshees, The Creatures, Love & Rockets, Daniel Ashe, Cocteau Twins, Christian Death, Dead Can Dance, This Mortal Coil, Attrition, Venus Fly Trap, etc. etc. etc.
Of course we also love other genres of music too... Symphonic Metal is a fave, as is Gothic Metal, 1980's Glam/Sleaze Rock, Post Punk, Power Metal, Traditional Folk, Neo-Folk, Neo-Classical, Alternative 80's, Alternative 90's, Alternative Pop, artists and bands such as: Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Regina Spektor, Clannad, Enya, Bjork, P.J. Harvey, The Waterboys, Nick Cave, The Levellers, Eliza Carthy, as well as Evanescence, Within Temptation, Nightwish, Lacuna Coil, Epica, and dozens upon dozens more...

Anna KiaRA UK Tour - UPDATE:
Due to prolonged issues with the visa application process taking too long the Anna KiaRa UK Tour has been postponed to later in the year around November or December 2024, Anna KiaRa is currently in conversation with the venues, namely in Nottingham, London and Manchester about gaining rescheduled gig dates, whereas the Birmingham gig has been cancelled.
Ticket Refunds for the cancelled Birmingham gig date will begin being processed on the 15th June 2024.
As soon has we have news of the new gig dates of the UK leg of Anna KiaRa's European Tour we will let you all know!!!
Also future ticket sales for Anna KiaRa's shows will now be dealt with directly via Anna KiaRa and her new management and booking agency KBN Agency, and not through DMMG Management & Promotions, as we have pulled out as the event booking management for the Ana KiaRa UK Tour due to extremely low advanced ticket sales.
However, we wish Anna KiaRa, Heavenqueen and Dikajee all the best with the future rescheduled gigs later in the year, and hope that they are a success...!!!
