After last years edition, I really wasn’t sure how they’d top it. Yet as always, Becky and the @frontify team knocked it out the park with this years @paradigms.io

An event that quite honestly, even outside of work, is one of the highlights of my year.

An incredible collection of some of the most interesting brains in creative and branding.

This year, situated on Obonjan island off the coastline of Croatia, we gathered for 3 incredible days of talks, conversation and plenty of good food, drink and sea dips squeezed in between.

So great to spend time with so many of my favourite faces in the industry, until next year! ❤️‍🔥

Another fantastic year at @designfestbrum !

Insane talks from so many talented folks, imposter syndrome felt strong watching some of that motion!! Seriously need to up my game!

So good to hang out with mates @sister_minor @misterdodds @garethdigital @louishudson and @katylcowan (after all these years – what a legend 🩷 so funny 🤪) and make some new ones too @l4nre @uuendylau @hinznkunz (Unreal Tournament forever baby!) – not to mention bumping into @hellodenley @justin_griffiths_creative @diamondcanopy @katherinetromans @lulacreates @imbue (finally bought a Happy Pill 🙂) and @signalnoise (chatting dark synth at BDF was so good :) – to name but a few!

As always a massive thanks to @luketonge and @danielalcorn for getting sh/t done and making this happen. Big up the BDF Team. I'm always amazed at how well everything's run and I was happy to be a part of it once again this year :) x

Festival season is wild right now. D&AD’s done, SXSW London starts today and Cannes is looming like a very expensive fever dream.

BUT before the rosé-fuelled chaos begins, the House of Oddities crew are heading to the @designfestbrum (10–12 June) with our session: The Freaks Shall Inherit the Earth.

Because in a world full of algorithmic beige, being a bit odd might actually be your biggest advantage.

Come for the weirdness. Stay for the outrageously good lineup: @ledbydonkeys , @coldwarsteve , @doyrivative , @samarmaakaroun , Danny Miller, @gwoode08 , @nicholasroyh & @nadja_lossgott , @dooks , @redway , @jortface , @barrington_xavier_reeves and loads more.

Huge shout out to @danielalcorn and @luketonge for building something genuinely brilliant in the Midlands for the creative community ❤️

Search Birmingham Design Festival to get your tickets before they vanish into the void.

Saturday 18th July !!! Our next United Friendship Disco headliner is the wonderful Cosmo Sofi, a London based Uruguayan DJ and radio presenter with a deep curiosity and passion for diverse musical cultures, resulting in sets that are eclectic and soulful with music from different times and places. You can expect anything from jazz to jungle, soul to house, ambient to dub and more. From all the various styles she digs, the common ingredient is - everything has soul and a message to the listener to help expand the consciousness.

Her monthly radio show ‘Spectrums’ on WorldwideFM has gained her recognition and respect in the music scene. Becoming one of Secretsundaze residents for 2023, playing across festivals in Europe and sharing the stage with DJs such as Gilles Peterson, Mr.Scruff, Joe Claussell, Colleen Cosmo Murphy, Coco Maria, Bradley Zero, Luke Una, Rainer Trüby and many more.

We are hyped to announce that our next headliner will be Eglo Records boss and eclectic mega-selector Alex Nut, on Sat 16th May at Margate Arts Club.

From honing his skills at the legendary Plastic People, to eclectic shows on NTS and Rinse FM, he’s uninhibited by tempo or time zone. His expansive taste draws heavy on the influences of House, Soul, Broken Beat, Jazz, Hip Hop, Reggae and a variety of electronic dance music styles.

We can’t wait to hear him play on the magnificent Arts Club sound system.

Come nice and early for a drink in the garden and to catch sounds from Inky’s amazing record collection, and Robbie of United Freedom Collective.

Tickets on RA and Outsavvy

Je ne m’appelle pas Shannon par hasard.
C’est que j’ai toute une partie de ma famille qui est anglaise, figure-toi.

Que pendant des années, ça a pris du ferry avec la madre et le frère premier du nom pour tâter de la saucisse (ça va), caler des hulla hoops sur tous les doigts, tâcher de ne se rompre aucun membre dans le sacro saint activity world et stocker de la salad cream par douzaines.

Des années à me débattre avec mon anglais naissant à chaque porte de ces trick or treating terrifiants pour les petits parisiens que nous étions, à raconter en rentrant que bien sûr que j’ai tout compris j’ai le double passeport thank you very much (à quoi ça sert, tu sais toujours pas mais enfin ça fait chic et on prend ce qu’on peut, à ce stade de l’aventure).

Et puis la vie, les années, les enfants, le travail - la marée.

Sauf qu’on n’est jamais à l’abri d’un coup de génie (pas le mien, t’imagines bien) et parce que ça m’arrive de suivre les idées du +1, j’ai donc calé mon ministaff dans l’auto, direction la GB, double passeport en main, comment on dit salad cream en anglais les filles?

C’était parti pour une semaine de baragouinage, à base de “pas like zis” et autres “come par ici” qu’ils se sont tous compris.
Une semaine à voir nos quatre enfants rire aux éclats dans une langue de toute évidence universelle.
Une semaine de comparatif franco-britannique des différentes techniques de négo familiale pour finir par constater qu’on est tous dans le même bateau, celui qui flotte mais franchement à peine.
Une semaine de préparatifs d’halloween, les mains dans la glaise, les enfants sur les genoux, le pinterest full zoomé et toi qui finis par carver parce que les enfants ça les amuse deux secondes mais ça devient vite chiant et tu le fais bien maman hein?
Une semaine de rationnement des bonbons qui restent là cette nuit oui oui promis tu les mangeras demain - hopla le basket il est pour les grands, who wants a qui-pique?

Une semaine de yeux qui brillent, sourires nigauds et têtes penchées.
Une semaine de lits blindés de cousins qui se comprennent sans se parler.

Une semaine de boîte à souvenirs, ou comme on dit chez nous, de memory box.

We are beyond excited to announce that Awesome Tapes @awesometapesfromafrica will headline the next United Friendship Disco on 6th Dec.

Since 2006, Brian Shimkovitz’s Awesome Tapes From Africa blog has been shedding light on obscure and wonderful sounds from across the continent. As a DJ he brings the blog to life with 2-3 hour sets blending folkloric pop, left-field dancefloor gems and hip-hop bangers. Traveling from club to festival to DIY space, Awesome Tapes DJ sets celebrate the music and musicians whose
cassettes Shimkovitz has collected over the years. In 2011, ATFA developed into a
critically acclaimed label, re-releasing records by African artists including Ata Kak, Dur-Dur Band, Hailu Mergia and Penny Penny. His DJ sets on twin tape decks explore deep, regional sounds using analog-anchored agility not heard or seen anywhere else.

The amazing Nadz and Spezial will be warming up with a vibrant mix of Egyptian and Lebanese pop, Raï, Dabke, Balkan and plenty of un-Shazamable edits, alongside resident Robbie from United Freedom Collective with his usual smorgasbord of musical delights.

This WILL sell out so do not sleep on it! Tickets on OUTSAVVY - link in our bio
