UK SALON #2 Live from One Love Cafe in Brixton!

It's all love. We've been having a real good time making music at the house and doing these radio shows. Most of the time, these shows are just us and a few more people around. But this UK Salon was different. We did it in the middle of the markets in Brixton. The markets in Brixton are a mix of shops and small booths of people selling all types of Caribbean & African Foods, clothes, vintage tech & anything else under the sun more or less.

The energy of the people who run these markets is very good. When we first met Anthony, he was bumpin' DJ mixes out of the speakers of his food truck and selling the best jerk chicken sandwiches in the whole market. Mike asked Anthony if we could do a show there and he gave us the next Saturday. And it's a big thanks to our homie Anthony from the One Love Cafe for being so down to support a show. We set up a table right next to the truck!and did a whole radio show hooked up to his sound system.

Trying to get the show working at first was a little difficult. It was cold, and it kept raining on and off. We wanted to do the show outside, but we also had to make sure we protected all the recoding equipment from the rain. We spent a little time trying to get a blue tarp and tying it up to cover us during the show. It wasn't looking good. Another shop owner we had gotten cool with the week before had been watching us waiting on the show to start. He came over to us real calm and just said " there's no more rain" , and just like that we moved on from the tarp and all of that stress and got on with the show.

Here's the link to the stream we did that day, it's definitely a show to remember.
Enjoy the sounds and check us out later! As always shout out to @sndbox for supporting my blog through their incubator!
