    Lots has been going on! We’ve both been to Mighty Hoopla, where Jaguar’s dreams came true as she introduced The Veronica’s on stage and Katie’s dreams came true as Jojo Siwa tore up the main stage. Jaguar’s also been at Movement Festival in Detroit, we discuss Charli XCX’s insane new album and we start getting excited for Glastonbury!

    We are coming to you live from Ibiza with four change makers who have had a huge impact on dance music - Nadine Noor (Pxssy Palace), Harry Gay (Queer House Party), Sydney Blue (Change the Beat) and Steven Braines (He.She.They). We’re discussing how to create change, how to diversify spaces, why there’s still lots left to do and how to make spaces more accessible for a wider range of people.
