event

Fade to Mind conscript and Vogue DJ, MikeQ, performed brilliantly alongside the likes of Nguzunguzu and Fatima Al Qadiri at last year’s Unsound Festival and now he returns to London’s Birthdays, in Stoke Newington this Friday, April 19, to add to the mix of vogue, footwork, booty and more, that has seen House of Trax distinguish itself as the party to be at in little more than a year of operation.

That said though, organisers Fools and Rushmore are no newbies, responsible for underground rave ‘Rhythm Talk’ and responsible for inviting the likes of Traxman, Venus X and Zebra Katz since. Long live 90s NYC ballroom. See their Facebook events page for details.**

Game makers rejoice as your favourite game jam is back this month, and if last year over 47 countries participated in this crazy game hackathon with over 2000 games, expectations are high for this fifth edition too…

This year takes place the weekend that goes from 25-27th of January, 48hours of gaming love creation for designers and developers who are willing not-only to create joy under pressure but maybe get noticed and earn some funding for further development.

As it usually happens despite the growth and dimension of the event not all locations can give room or host as many people as desired so maybe it’s worth registering and checking if there are still places left to attend to from one of the already-created locations. More info this way.
