La Leurentop
La LEURENTOP is an independent alt-rock artist, producer, and storyteller whose work blends raw emotional tension, analog texture, and cinematic grit into songs that hit like memory and refuse polish in favor of presence. Working between London and New York, she crafts music built from the heart’s in-between moments; the thresholds, breaks, and ruptures that define human experience, and draws listeners into a world where imperfection is proof of life and sound is a map of the subconscious.
A multidisciplinary creative, La is also Founder, Publisher & Creative Director of Words Create Awareness (WCA), her independent label and platform spanning music, writing, and print projects including ARCANA, a print-only esoteric zine and a growing home for a select roster of artists. Her forthcoming mirrored double album Fragments in the Basement of My Mind charts a psychological journey from confinement to emergence through distortion, confession, and unfiltered intensity.

At Deploy Underground, Ting Ting leads with vision and voice, shaping a fanzine that challenges glossy norms and spotlights the edge where art, identity, and resistance meet.

Leetl
Simon (aka Leetl) sees the world slightly out of sync — and that’s exactly the point.
Drawn to distortion and discomfort, Simon’s work often revolves around eyes, warped landscapes, and unsettling symbols inspired by weirdcore aesthetics. His drawings explore anxiety, disorientation, and the strange familiarity of things that feel almost real.
Beyond illustration, Simon collaborates with friends to create short films and a web-series rooted in the same emotional territory — stories about being lost, watching, searching, and existing in between clarity and confusion.
Through visual art and moving image, Simon doesn’t aim to explain the world — he mirrors how it feels.
Welcome to the weird.

#hologramamx
A storyteller * sometimes telling tales from an observer, always stories I live, moments where I feel deeply and need to express.
A need that feels like rivers of emotions and thoughts flowing through, with the same pressure. Sometimes I dare materialize them in words or pictures, feeling me with joy of finally visualizing what I felt imprinted in my brain or my soul, honestly I don't know. Then scrutinize them from different corners of my personality, or let my humour decide, daily.
And sometimes, somedays, finally, I push the shame aside and share them in this space, so thanks Deploy. A small corner where one can be.
