Had the pleasure of capturing @made.byeden doing her thing for our party - so grateful for the care and creativity that helped bring it all to life.

Thanks to everyone’s $5 donation, we were able to raise over $1,000 for @totefreedom a non-profit, grassroots direct aid initiative.
One of the ways @totefreedom raises funds is through pop-up stalls in London, where they sell a range of items such as stickers and tote bags. The money raised will go towards purchasing the supplies needed to run one of these stalls.
100% of the proceeds from the stall will go directly to the Gaza team to support their distribution initiatives.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT 🗣️
Emerging from Djilang, @docsquared____ operates in the deeper channels of the dance floor where groove is subtle, time stretches, and detail does the heavy lifting. Their selections drift between stripped back house, rolling baselines, and dubby textures. Digging deep into their bag to create a unique experience on the dance floor. Stitched together with a focus on flow rather than flash. A sound shaped by curiosity and control. Patient, off-centre, and designed to pull you inward rather than push you forward
Doc² is the collaborative project between Roka & Rust-e, formed through the shared appreciation of the unique sounds in dance music. They work closely in building and delivering unique and meaningful experiences on the dance floor through deep cuts and finding the groove in the nuances of the under appreciated.
After Doc²’s recent performance at Luminous Festival and a steady run at local clubs and events. Expect pure class and freaky tunes setting the tone for the night!
