From lockdown digging to a national live footprint, @Asian Tones is five years deep and still building.
In our latest interview, Asian Tones founder Anna Hazarika reflects on 30 shows, 120 artists, and taking Asian Tones beyond London for the first time - from intimate rooms inside St Pancras Clock Tower to festival stages across five UK cities.
Fresh off PRS Foundation support and a landmark year of touring, Anna talks access, representation, discovery-by-digging, and why integration (not sidelining) matters when it comes to festival lineups.

@futurebubblers is a special talent discovery project from @brownswood . Their main intention is to support artists creating music styles typically under-supported and allow space for development at their own pace. They focus on areas geographically outside London and are a unique output for nurturing young artists ❤️
We’re so pleased to have them curate our Friday’s programme – tune in tomorrow to hear shows from some of the current participants of Future Bubblers.

Tomorrw, Friday 30 January, from 08:00 GMT – listen on worldwidefm.net
From Stroud to Medellín, @lovellious_ is mapping dancefloors the world over.
Crate-digging across Colombia, throwing DIY warehouse parties back home, running DJ workshops in Medellín, and uncovering underground scenes where you least expect them (including your local bread man who moonlights as a deep house DJ).
In our latest interview, @lovellious_ talks UK Funky, jazz, Latin club, cross-age dancefloors, and what it means to build community through music, with reflections shaped by his time in Colombia and his mentoring through Future Bubblers with Charlie Dark MBE.

@okcandice catches up with the incredible @footshootersound at @weoutherefest to talk all things independent festivals, from the beauty of DIY communities like @brainchildfest to how emerging artists can get themselves on stage 🫧
A producer and DJ deeply rooted in London’s underground, @footshootersound is fast becoming a favourite across the UK’s independent scene. A big one to watch!

Behind the scenes at @colorsxstudios 👀
Future Bubbler @chynabenae joined her mentor Andy Robbins (@metropolismusic ) for a look behind the COLORS curtain - seeing how the moving parts of a major live show come together, from the tech setup to the creative flow backstage. A proper insight into how ideas, teamwork and a bit of chaos shape what happens on stage.
