Well here it is, two weeks later haha lots of love and footage to sift through. Will try let the content speak for itself. But just want to say thank you to everyone for coming down, without you magic like this doesn’t exist ✨ Thank you @the_bbe_store for giving me a crack, for my first sonic bloom event.

Long overdue post but recently had the incredible @samya_underground join me on @voices_radio for @continentaljamselection 🫐 An amazing DJ & individual who brought so much joy and a whole host of killer selections to the studio. 🪩 I caught Samya play at @thejagodalston and it was one of my favourite sets I have seen - a real joyous experience and the dance floor was absolutely fizzing til lights on. If you get a chance to see him live I can’t recommend it enough! (Maybe more on this soon 👀) The show is available to listen back to via 🔗 in my bio to get a flavour of what you can’t expect ☀️

So the first photo shows the truth. Where I am now. My usual disposition, and I couldn’t be more grateful, 2025 was incredible for me. What is also the truth before coming back to London, was that I fell into depression, for the first time in my life, and that was as you can imagine, hard for me, and my family. It’s a long story as they say, but my take away is what I want, whoever maybe reading this, to hear. It’s ok to be down, and uncomfortable where you are. We are all human and it’s a natural part of being blessed to be so. For me, I was in the wrong place, Australia. Which might sound strange because it really is an extraordinary beautiful place with beautiful people. It just wasn’t right for me right now. I was afraid to leave, as I’m not getting younger, and was afraid to stay. And fell into depression. Ultimately, I had a desire, and though it scared me, and that my self belief was rock bottom, I followed my intuition to come back to London. To cut this long story short, I am now myself again. The second clip is at 3:30am @thejagodalston the last song of the night. It’s important to me, because it represents palpably my intuition. A burning desire to play music that brings me joy and share it with others so that they may feel what I feel. It was also a sign that I can do and I am good enough to create something like that for people to enjoy themselves, take them away from what ever worries they may have, and be happy with me in that moment. The last track is what I want to do more of this year, with more wonderful people and I can’t wait ❤️
