bringing you closer to local communities across music, art + culture.

rooted in Johannesburg - our events programme travels from clubs and performance spaces, to book shops and eateries to uniquely celebrate + connect independent community; and explore our passion for music, food, art, and people.

we seasonally curate events - such as Melodies (our late-night dance music party) or Sundays with… (a monthly all-day brunch series); and produce once-off + limited event series with collaborators across the creative community.

a regular free party that has one goal in mind: to dance, with a feeling.

featuring a regular rotation of resident DJs, and special guests - each night brings people the sounds of house, jazz, funk, disco - and any other sounds to give off a good, warm feeling.

produced in partnership with Acid Food & Wine Bar, and online radio platform, Globalise Yourself Stereo - ‘Sundays with…’ is a monthly brunch event connecting the dots between food, art and music.
