Mindfares x Pressure nights in the courtyard

We've always had a direct and intimate connection to the dancefloor so it was only a matter of time before Mindfares curated a night (and day) of its own. On August 29th, we’re making the move alongside none other than Pressure Nights, joining forces for twelve hours in the WWW outdor courtyard; half audition, half party and no indication which is which.

Taking a cue from the chillout and backrooms of the 90s rave scene, the day will begin spacious and unhurried, with the boundaries between ambient, electronics and techno deliberately left unclear. As daylight disappears from the courtyard, things will gradually tighten and rhythms will become harder to ignore.

Two live performances and a cast of DJs, including canadian guest Daura, will occupy a high-fidelity quadraphonic system across the day and night. Just as important will be everything surrounding it. We’re treating the courtyard as more than somewhere to put a soundsystem: light, objects, arrangement and mise-en-scène are all part of the proposition. A little world to disappear into for twelve hours.

No abrupt switch from listening session to party, no prescribed moment when one becomes the other. Just an afternoon allowed to slowly change its shape as it moves into the night.
