Read moreWe Infiltrated Soho House To See DJ Daddy Skream, Here’s What Happened…
There’s nothing more powerful than holding your own in spaces where you’re not welcome. Walking into Soho House, the imposter syndrome hit hard, we rocked up wearing our usual attire (looking cool as ever whilst doing so) but amongst the Louboutins, bodycons and clutch bags we stuck out like a sore (and very poor) thumb, so much so that before reaching the roof to see DJ Daddy Skream we already had the nepo babies up in arms, one grassing us up for going to the toilets in twos (what a sad little life Jane)…

Read moreA Haven Of Psychedelic Art Is Coming To London
If you’ve clicked on this particular feature, you’ll probably appreciate the cosmic play that led me to find out about ‘ENTHEON’, a psychedelic exhibition by artists Alex and Allyson Grey coming to London this July. Earlier this evening, after shedding a tear over their now sold-out ‘Flesh of The Gods’ blanket (that I’ve been eyeing up since February but have been too broke to buy), I found myself gagging to feel the energy of their work up close, a quick google led me to discover that the New-York-based duo will be bringing their work in the UK for the first time ever next month, right down the road from me in Canary Wharf (what are the odds?)…

Read moreWe’ve Found Broke’s Summer Soundtrack And No Surprise It’s By Sammy Virji
Last night, we hit warm-enough-to-walk-home-after-a-night-out weather (as we discovered after trekking South to scout out a new venue), and that confirmed it for the Broke crew, the first wisps of summer, so I’ll stop gatekeeping this banger with it’s goated build up and BPM good enough to get your heart pumping before easing you into a puddle of pure bliss with some steamy wobs (big up Sammy Viji and Chris Lake for the beats)…

Read moreBendik HK Drops A Mind-Bending Remix Of Gouldian Finch’s ‘Cocoon’
Bendik HK ain’t your average DJ, he’s got fans around the globe gagging for another edition of his high-BPM mixes and a quick listen into his latest remix will give you an idea why. A wobbly banger that wouldn’t be out of place in an intimate venue, seasoned by a steamy atmosphere and sweaty writhing ravers. It’s a revamped take on Norwegian producer Gouldian Finch’s (or as you might know him better, Martin Horntveth’s) “Cocoon” holding onto the essence of the original but catapulting it into a whole new dimension through injections of nu-wave jungle, electronica, and experimental flair into this remix (if we don’t hear it in a festival tent this summer we’re gonna start tweaking)…
