Tomorrow night, some of our favourites DJs and cool-people are playing a pop-up party in Shoreditch. Now even we don’t know where it is yet, but we presume a location-reveal will prevent us going on a party hunt.
We do know that it’s taking place in a secret gallery space which is all very exciting – and it features Jackmaster, Julio Bashmore and Casper C. The night’s being put on by H&P and ReviveHER. And we’ll be there!

What a treat! And the end goal? An online sound library – attendees will be given a CD-R memento of the day with the sounds collected, forming the library’s start-point. Fancy. … Continue Reading
