Weekend Adventure Review: The Hydra x Electric Minds
Last Saturday (3rd October) we adventured down to East London’s Studio Spaces, to attend one of the most talked about winter series “The Hydra.” Teaming with Electric Minds and featuring the talented acts of Levon Vincent, Move D & Mr.G, this line up, this venue, and these promotors sure set its bar high.

Move D’s selection of songs (like always) were on point, Levon Vincent mixes were…

Last weekend our Marketing Assistant stayed close to home, and paid a visit to Found Festival. Situated within the beautiful landscape of Brockwell Park, Brixton – Found Festival is one of 5 installments taking place throughout the summer months. This week we bring you Summer Diaries, the Instagram edition. 1 bus ride, 2 bottles of prosecco and a view of the famous London naked bike ride later… the girls and I had arrived.
