Sign Up

A one-off event presenting new work by DJ and producer Hu-Sane, producer and electronic musician Astrolayb, and DIY audiovisual artist and DJ m3UNTITLED.

Curated by Daytimers, a collective championing the sounds, stories and voices of South Asian creative communities, the three artists have spent the summer and early autumn working on new music exploring their heritage and relationship to archives and memory.

The day is split into two parts. You can book one or the other, or both!

By Day (12-3pm)

An afternoon exploring how we archive and explore collective memory. Featuring:

  • A panel discussion hosted by Daytimers with the commissioned artists, community archivist Laila Benhaida (Ahmed Iqbal Ullah RACE Centre) and multidisciplinary artist AminaB (ajeeb studios)
  • A screening of AminaB’s short comedy drama film ‘Daytimers’ 
  • A video collage workshop for young people with BuskWithUs
  • An open deck facilitated with Darama
  • Food stall with MumZ Fix

By Night (6-10pm)

  • New music by DJ and producer Hu-Sane, producer and electronic musician Astrolayb, and DIY audiovisual artist and DJ m3UNTITLED exploring their heritage and relationship to archives and memory
  • Discussions about each piece, hosted by Chandé
  • An exclusive Daytimers B2B set

    m3UNTITLED

    • Hu-Sane offers a personal reflection on archiving her family’s stories and her Northern mixed heritage through three UK Garage tracks infused with Punjabi influences, accompanied by evocative visuals 
    • Astrolayb delivers a three-part, immersive, sample-based composition, drawing inspiration from his childhood memories and exploring the Kannada language through the lens of food, religion, and action films
    • m3UNTITLED presents an speculative performance piece, split into three acts, that delves into the archives of the forgotten WWII muslim soldiers, intertwining the history of the Bradford riots and the unique culture of Bradford's car scene
