POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

1 week on from Phrasing and we're reminiscing back to what was a truly serendipitous night -

With words from @lottie_mccrindell and @riwa_sb patterning language and enveloping us in their lyrical worlds; music selections from @lanabaybie and @kamal.casj invoking tapestries of textures, swells, and melodies; and a lovely wave of poetry on the open mic.

Thank you everyone who came together for this - more to come!

a lab of sonic curation and lyrical assembly.

poets and disc jockeys perform in acoustic verse and electronic mix, in tandem and apart, held together in vibrational frequency by rhythm, by pause.

silence. suspension. drop.

the floor is open for poets who would like to experiment as part of the open jam. sign up on the night.
