So long Corsica Studios, you beautiful grotty labyrinth. My favourite sound system in London, the site of countless amazing times and also the place where I once stood two feet away from Mike Watt of the Minutemen. I made many friends there over the years, some permanently and some just for one night. No more wandering around Elephant in the daylight at 8am. I'll miss @rupturelondon the most, still the best jungle party I've been to (including the 90s ones). Huge love and vibes. Hopefully something new will come along in its place x

#tbt to January 2018, when artists Haroon Mirza and @jackjelfs were halfway through their three month residency at CERN - the world's largest particle physics lab and home to the biggest machine on Earth, the Large Hadron Collider. During their residency, Mirza and Jelfs took an archaeological approach to the site - they explored underground tunnels, made art from materials found in waste bins, filmed inside abandoned particle detectors and repurposed old technology that had been gifted to them by the staff. They also interviewed many theoretical physicists, focusing on the entangled relationship between matter and consciousness. The materials gathered during the residency flowered into several works, including a large scale multimedia performance entitled The Wave Epoch (2018-21). Featuring GAIKA, Elijah and Jay Barter, who all joined them for part of the residency, The Wave Epoch started life as a multi-channel video and live performance work. Originally commissioned by @lighthouse_btn for the Brighton Festival, it was later performed at @lisson_gallery and Ministry of Sound, then became an installation for V-A-C and @maxgoelitzgallery , before being transfigured into an album and accompanying film - which was the inaugural release on OUTPUTS!

The BBC World Service podcast series recently featured a 2019 audio documentary profiling artist Haroon Mirza, as he and his collaborator @jackjelfs developed and installed their immersive audiovisual work ‘one1one’ for the exhibition Broken Symmetries at @fact_liverpool . This piece subsequently went through multiple iterations and reconfigurations, including a vinyl edition with a jungle version by @charlie_fracture which was the second release on OUTPUTS! Check out the documentary, which was produced by the very talented @oonaghseyes at the link in our bio.

New year, new me #newyearsresolutions

This is the best photo I took in 2025

Tonight at @fold.ldn we'll be screening The Wave Epoch, a film featuring @gaikasees and @jabsterser which came out of the residency Haroon Mirza and I did at CERN in 2018, as well as @helgadorotheafilm 's video for my track Morning Image - all part of the amazing collab between @futur.shock and @outputs_av . It starts at 7pm, see you there xx

Official summer of fun™ Much love to all my pals, old and new ❤️
