Industrial project W.O.K.E. released their debut EP titled “Taxman”. The project comes from Konn Lavery who is known for both his career as an author and for his previous releases under his name that blended both his written works and his music for an audio-visual experience. The new EP separates his written and musical careers. The EP comes with the title track, two remixs from Virtual Terrorist and Elijah Hennig, as well as a noisy, spoken word track titled ‘The Inevitable Mental Collapse Into Daily Conformity’.

Frequencies of the Macrocosm is the musical soundtrack of the short story collection Into the Macrocosm by Konn Lavery. The album roots from improv jam sessions played over recorded readings of each short. They have been cleaned up, trimmed, and modified to create one cohesive LP. The tracks are themed around each story, ranging in mood, instruments, and emotion and are intended to be listened to while reading any book you please.
S.O.S is the musical soundtrack of the thriller novel YEGman. The album fuses elements of industrial, noise, metal and electronic to express a range of emotions and moods through aggressive beats and distorted vocals.
This album is the musical interpretation of the novel Seed Me. The album explores a vast range of soundscapes through dark ambient, experimental and witchhouse sounds to express the novel’s horror elements.
I'm honoured to announce Rave was awarded the B.R.A.G. Medallion!
It's a award I've scoped out for a long time and finally decided to submit a book to the group. Very pleased to be part of the honorees.
Rave on!

New Readers Favorite review for Into the Macrocosm!
“With an engaging narrative and evocative artwork, Konn Lavery's Into the Macrocosm is an entertaining embrace of fantastical oddities and life beyond.”
“The story continues in "Scrappers" … a sci-fi delight that deserves to be a full novel.” - not the first time that comment has been made... maybe I should look into that?
FULL REVIEW ★★★★★
A paranormal event or just a trick of the mind? A teen is urged by a talking goat to make a move on his crush while high on weed in "Goat Wisdom". In "Inspirer", a man is tricked by his own delusional mind and makes an irreversible decision. Sci-fi fans will enjoy "Harvesters", set in a post-apocalyptic Earth where people are treated like cattle by superior beings. The story continues in "Scrappers", as two people tasked with finding metal junk for the surviving human base underground stumble upon a crashed Harvester and a dangerous beast. It is a sci-fi delight that deserves to be a full novel. Stories such as a demonic teddy bear in "Mr. Super" and man-eating large birds in "Otherkin" will entertain horror lovers, while "Option Three" is an introspective piece for everyone. As compelling as these stories are, the focus will always return to the Nameless One, Malpherities, and their hunt for an answer. With an engaging narrative and evocative artwork, Konn Lavery's Into the Macrocosm is an entertaining embrace of fantastical oddities and life beyond.

New review for Rave came in
Full review in my bio links
"Wow! That is the first thought that came to mind after I finished reading “Rave.” I found myself holding my breath through much of this fast-paced story. The author Konn Lavery did a fantastic job of creating a novel that is full of complicated characters affected by a tragedy from the past."
