Nothing Forced

@ambers.club // ‘Awakening’ Season 6 Creative Direction and delivery // From the creation of a bespoke logo marque, a reappraised graphic system and hyperrealistic renders of insects, the S6 creative direction expands into a wider sensory world built around ‘the Act of Starting To Feel Something’. The creative is deliberately unclear and this ambiguity sits at the centre of Amber’s. Since the beginning, we’ve worked the brand into a space between reveal and concealment: hidden lineups, obscured details, trust-led curation, and a visual language that invites interpretation rather than explaining itself. Season Six continues that approach by turning the lens toward insects emerging from preservation; living things liberated- viewed from above, sacred and on the edge of transformation.

@solidgroovesuk x @felipepantone // Honouring a bold visual language of motion, colour, and digital-era abstraction, Nothing Forced are proud to share the 3D visuals and campaign materials created in collaboration with Solid Grooves to celebrate the work of Felipe Pantone for the upcoming Ibiza season at DC-10. Built primarily in Cinema 4D, the visual system translates Pantone’s kinetic world into a CGI-led series of creative artworks built for digital, social, and print rollout. Through a range of surface texture explores, pattern integration, and expressive typography, the campaign examines and plays with expressive design and an immediately identifiable art style.

@beatport // Nothing Forced created a bespoke 3D system designed for Beatport Live’s 2026 event series, to shift effortlessly from the sun-soaked parties of Miami Music Week to the spectacle and scale of Las Vegas. Drawing from Beatport’s tonearm-inspired icon, the system reworks its shape into abstract 3D forms that echo the rotation of a record and the looping of a sample. With transferable colourways and event-specific messaging, each output translates the pulse of electronic music into a dynamic visual language built for the dancefloor.

@girlsdontsync x @relentlessenergydrink // Cinematic hero and shortform content to launch the 2026 edition of Local, which spotlights emerging talent from areas outside of London and provides grant funding to artists and creatives making visionary things happen outside of the major hotspots. This year’s campaign is fronted by Girls Don’t Sync, who got their start at Liverpool’s legendary independent nightclub District and are now taking their style of UK bass music all over the world. Our creative is based around the concept of It’s Coming Home, as the girls return to Liverpool to champion the city’s underground scene and put the call out to artists and collectives to apply for the Local fund.

Nothing Forced is pleased to announce that Amber’s has been nominated for Grassroots Venue of the Year at the @bbcr1dance Awards. We were first approached in the summer of 2024 to create and devise the venue’s social & marketing strategy, brand, identity and overarching concepts. Back then, we had no idea what it would become. As directors of the venue, we’re over the moon to be recognised for such an accolade, just over a year since we opened. As an agency, to be grouped alongside venues like @subclub87 , @corsica.studios , @stealthnottingham @m3_7lw is the real honour. These are clubs that we’ve spent our formative years in, cornerstones of electronic music whose contributions to the scene are immeasurable, whether that’s in the last 5 years or across the last 40. To all those nominated, congratulations. To all the grassroots establishments who work week in, week out to keep this scene alive. Thank you. Jeremy & Lawrence.

Amber’s has been nominated for Best Club at the @djmagofficial Best Of British Awards 2025 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 When we got approached with an idea by @djhutch last summer to open a nightclub, we weren’t sure what to make of it, we’ve not been sure what to make of any of this ever since to be honest. We had zero idea or inkling of the journey we were all about embark on. It’s been tough, it’s been incredible, it’s been stressful and it’s been overwhelming, but wow it’s been amazing. Running a club is no joke so to be given the nod, even as a nominee, is incredible. That’s what it’s about. For us to work so closely together, every single day on this, with no barriers, no restraint and no parameters, has to be one of the best experiences we’ll ever have, both in business and as brothers. Whatever happens, we’re so grateful for everything so far and win or lose, we’re happy with what we’ve achieved as a team. Having said that we’d like to give this a good go, so head to the bio if you’d like to support with a vote. Best Club Nominees. SECURED. Winners? Let’s see.
