Stinky beats from upcoming soundmakers and DJ-worshipping stories.
Welcome to Amapiano x Afrobeats night at The Prince of Wales nightclub in Brixton, London, a dope celebration of South African amapiano music with DJ Big Dom on the decks.
Young and old, black and white, amapiano carried the crowd the whole night in joyous celebration.
DJ MQ: “Watching people vibe to Amapiano feels like joy”
You can feel the bass rattling in your bones.
Singing at the top of our lungs, our bodies moving in unison to the music with hedonistic abandon. If your clothes aren’t clinging to your body when the sun comes up, you’re doing it wrong. The air is thick and saccharine, brightly painted vapes and red solo cups filled with Hennessy and Coke erupting in a kaleidoscope of colour.
At 23, Freddie Bale is fast becoming one of the most sought-after event organisers and DJs in South London. Having played Milan Fashion Week, the Oxford-born DJ has an impressive CV that includes musician, producer, graphic designer, and promoter.
Now living in East London and immersing himself in the creative scene with events such as Shifting Culture and Fortem International, we caught up with him to talk about his biggest event to date: the trail-blazing clubbing event, Moody HiFi.
