Dance music prides itself on being a caring and supportive community, and many artists have used their position to send heartfelt messages or offer help in the wake of the deadly warehouse fire that left 36 dead in Oakland on Dec. 2. Those who are interested in donating can give at youcaring.com.
I think I speak for a lot of us when I say a great many djs will struggle to bring joy to a room in a time of great personal sadness.

Crazy idea: help indie spaces comply with fire code rather than shutdown so everyone is safe and no one has to risk their life for art.

By shutting down indie spaces due to minor fire code infractions you may almost literally be pushing kids from the frying pan to the fire.

Help kids comply. It would take so little money in each city compared to policing a never ending jump to worse and worse venue.

Thoughts go out to those who perished in the Oakland Fire. Hopeful that from tragedy will come positive change for the artist community here

maybe @fabriclondon could use some of the surplus ££ raised to contribute to these? – https://t.co/yeo6VtCC21 / https://t.co/GzyZ79LfNE

i dont mean to draw any equivalence between those two campaigns by the way, only that they both relate to “our culture”

Thinking of my NorCal family. Much love and hope to those who need it today.
