They have certainly helped keep Distractfold going (most notably as we came out of the pandemic) by providing us with space, skills, equipment and moral support when we’ve needed it most!.

In fact, they have been quietly helping plug a lot of the gaps left by lack of proper funding in our arts scene, and the loss of so many venues to crazy rents/councils prioritising profitable development over the arts. .

Impeccable at their jobs, wonderful curators and unfailingly calm and welcoming, Edouard and Isa created the ideal space for the extremes of genuine experimentation, and proper high-quality sound making. No music too weird and no requirements too complex for them!!.

Urgent!!! Just 9 DAYS left to donate to @iklectikartlab fundraiser!. These are a few of our many memories from Iklectik, one of our all-time favourite venues. It’s impossible to exaggerate how important Iklectik has become to the arts scene here in the UK

World premiere of Anna Korsun work for singing quartet 🐦. UK Premieres of works by Jonah Haven (sop/vln/prc) and Esaias Järnegard (vln/vcl/prc). Film by Vero Merangere. And a little bit of Andrew Greenwald thrown in because we just can't help ourselves ❤.
