So excited for another Grand Funk Fundraiser- lets dance to help others

After our first fundraiser in May, we were overwhelmed with the love and support we received during the party. We collectively fundraised just over £1.5k for Refugee Community Kitchen. A massive big ups to everyone who donated or shaked a leg, we love you!

This time round, we return to our beloved Boat Live, our party falling in the later part of hot, sweaty August in the heart of Hackney Wick. We're excited to invite some old and new faces behind the decks for this one!

Hailing from Jersey & Chicago, we welcome Mvcoko a DJ who's style tends to blend techno with Ghetto House and Footwork with drum n bass to make sure the dance floors on fire at all times. Mvcoko's fondness for mixing the deeper end of house through to the tougher end of techno and club music makes them perfect for the closing slot. A member of the HOWL collective, Mvcoko is also web designer and set designer based in London. Muy talentosa!

Next, we welcome Felix CW, host of a popping Balamii radio residency. A proud member of the Brighter Days family, FelixCW has some of the crispest sounding UK productions in the scene. Playing memorable sets this year at Meadows in the Mountains festival with the Brighter Days Family and last year at Keep Hush b2b Bakey, FelixCW has been making movements across Europe and the UK. He's played alongside some of the biggest names in the scene from Nia Archives, Dr Dubplate, Coco Bryce and many more. We can't wait to have him grace the decks. Scroll down to hear one of his saucy mixes...

Last but not least, we are very excited to have LulaRoo slap the bass and funk into Boat Live with her unique blends of Blues, funk, ska and jungle. Her sassy, smooth and slapping grooves will provide the perfect soundtrack for an August eve Friday night sunset. Woop!

Usual faces Jam Scones, Wasabi Needle and Stillgiles will play some muy muy tasteful sounds guaranteed to slide you into them dizzying dance frenzies we saw last time. You know the score.

Can’t wait to see all your gorgeous faces…

Love Isaac & Noah (Refugee Community Kitchen)
