Lovebox welcome community music project ‘Reprazent’ run by PTriple

Lovebox are please to welcome performers from the Hackney / Tower Hamlets community music project ‘Reprazent’ to the festival this year. Run by the PTriple organisation, who partnered with Lovebox for this project - at Haggerston Community Centre in Hackney, the show will be the culmination of a ten week music production and performance course. Local musicians aged 16 – 21 have been taught and mentored in modern software and production techniques and will be showcasing the tracks & songs they’ve come up with at the NYC Downlow on the Friday.

Rick Down, of PTriple, who has a family link to the festival through cousin Andy Cato says ‘I’ve been teaching and running music projects for 8 years and felt a link up with Lovebox would be a good platform for young talent‘, adding ‘We’ve discovered some talented young people who are looking forward to performing their tracks at the festival’. He and fellow DJ/ Producer Peter Ogston have brought their knowledge of Logic Audio software to bear with young musicians who have formed three different acts who will be performing deep house, hip hop and indie tracks in a one hour slot.

Expect tight beats, modern songs and Detroit influenced deep house at this ‘Reprazent’ session.
