Eclectic ( I try), Australian Visual Artist-Musician. Hello all - UPDATE Xtrobitz Project 2025. Christopher Russell - Hey, thanks for still listening.   I have been spending time painting recently due to ongoing spinal injuries and carpal tunnel that have affected my ability to play many instruments.
Hopefully, I will get to try out a handcrafted harp made by a family wood artisan.  I would love to collaborate with creative musical projects in the recording domain. However, I never say never and hope to be able to finish some musical ideas as soon as everything calms down and heals, fingers crossed.  As mentioned, to outlet creative stress, I create and exhibit artworks. Ref: the Instagram link and my Christopher Russell Redbubble Shop.   Cheers to all, and keep producing musical gems for people who are seeking new and refreshing sounds from around the globe. 🎸🥂
The soundtrack multimedia, etc. project of former GOTHIC FARMYARD, (circa early youthful 1980s) drummer-instrumentalist, Xristo Russell, and other pseudonyms over the past 45ys. My ongoing project is Xtrobitz with occasional contributions from other musicians, which is more fun. My involvement in other bands from the past:  Blackwater (70s), Gothic Farmyard, Moonshots (King Jerklews), KKlux Frankenstein, The Delightfuls blues band, Bronwyn Johnson Blues band, etc, Electronic music Mr Megatron, Tin Ears. 
Many recording contributions, mainly drums for hire, and I record on my new Roland TD27KV2 now. The acoustic gear is packed away, Etc. Xtrobitz music project includes fragmented guitar, keyboard soundscapes, and rhythms to help propel this set of instrumentals, short soundtracks, and snapshots.  I give my best shot for amusement these days.
Cheers, and I hope you enjoy my eccentric hobby with some collaborations.

Joey Bedlam is a singer, songwriter, lover of 1960's fashion, style and architecture.  She is also a model and a graphic designer and a pin-up artist.  DollSquad was Joey's main band for 10 years.  She is now doing some international music collaborations with various bands and writers from Europe and the US.  Even though Doll Squad was courted briefly by Kim Fowley, Joey chose to record DollSquad’s second album with Steve Lucas (of legendary Australian band X) at Bakehouse Studios in Melbourne. Making an album is not like buying a designer pair of jeans. You don’t go to some big-name producer just to get their ‘name’ all over your record. While it was the ultimate compliment to get attention from Kim Fowley, I felt that Australian bands should be utilizing resources at home whenever they can. Having said that there are some immense benefits in international producers for specific sounds that I might be chasing in the future and I am open to that.

Lola Demo is a force to be reckoned with. Her music is a raw, unfiltered dive into the heart of alternative soundscapes.
Hailing from the eclectic underground scene, Lola Demo has carved out a niche that's entirely her own. With a background that defies convention, her journey through the musical realms is anything but ordinary.
Starting with the brooding tones of goth and alt-rock, Lola Demo has evolved her sound into something that transcends genres. She has previously fronted the goth band Ape the Cry (Melb AUS), rocked out with the alt-rock band Hard Candy (Melb AUS), and explored dark electronica with British musician/producer Barry Snaith in their duo, M1NK.
Now splitting her creative energy between Athens, Greece, and the idyllic island of Ithaca, Lola Demo writes and records in her mobile studio, Strudel Girl. Her commitment to her craft is unwavering, aiming to release a new album or EP at least once a year. Her music marries grungy garage grit with hauntingly beautiful melodies, crafting songs that are as biting as they are melancholic.
Lola Demo's lyrics are a journey unto themselves - sharp, stinging, and unapologetically far from the pop mainstream. She thrives on the fringes. She lives for the edge. With influences spanning the entire spectrum of sound, Lola Demo is not just an artist; she's a sonic alchemist. 
Lola Demo is looking deep into your darkness and eternal fears by releasing hers.

Count Yourself Lucky.
