Back in 2019 myself and my two close friends set up a record label / art project to combine our creativity into our passion music. Myself and Nathan both studied graphic design together at college where we also started making music and this has been a dream of ours since then. We currently have two releases out now on bandcamp and plan to get our own studio within the next year. Both releases have been played by DJs on Rinse FM, Subtle radio and Limbo Radio. We have recently had a guest radio mix on french radio station Le Protocol which was a huge achievement for us to get onto international airwaves.
My plan for this project is to be not just music however, as many of my friends all have unique creative talent. I would love to help them have an opportunity where they can showcase and do something with their work. For example we have linked up with my friend Anni Kay who is a photographer she takes 35mm photos of Hulme (An area situated in Manchester) for some of our press shots. I am lucky for having such creative friends in around manchester where we can all collaborate with each other. It feels like manchester has its own scene which has had a big impact on my upbringing and influences my artwork today.

During lockdown we were invited to take part in Notbadforagirl's streaming festival, we made the video edits ourselves I chose to use footage from a brazilian carnival in the 90s as I felt like my music choice for the mix was carnival inspired.
