OMAR DOOM
Omar Doom (born Omar Makhdomi on June 29, 1976) is an American actor, musician, and artist best known for his frequent collaborations with director Quentin Tarantino. He gained international recognition for his role as PFC Omar Ulmer in the 2009 film Inglourious Basterds, where his character is one of the soldiers who kills Hitler. Beyond acting, Doom is a classically trained artist with a BFA in painting from Parsons School of Design. Under the moniker Straight Razor, he produces dark electronic music that blends darkwave, techno, and EBM (Electronic Body Music).
DARK CHISME
Dark Chisme is a Seattle-based darkwave duo formed by vocalist/producer Christine Gutiérrez and multi-instrumentalist Erik "E" Schneider. Known for their "musica oscura," they blend industrial textures, synth-pop, and techno with influences from Latin music and Goth culture. The duo's sound is characterized by propulsive, 80s-tinted beats and Gutiérrez's cool, commanding vocals. Their work often explores themes of identity, resilience, and independence, reflecting Gutiérrez’s experience growing up between cultures in Chicago and Seattle.
EX VELES
Ex Veles is a Darkwave trio, recently spawned from the psyches of singer/lyricist Magdalena (formerly Mz Ann Thropik), musician/producer Luke (VOIDWRMR), and musician/producer Skye (Duneline). Forged in Seattle, their music fuels the fire of defiance, chaos, and conviction. Only playing live since March 2026, they’ve already packed out venues with Covenant, Dark Chisme, and Madeline Goldstein, as well as played Verboden darkwave festival.
