House Culture

GIDEÖN is a DJ, artist, label owner and activist who is as comfortable behind the decks at some of the world's most underground clubs as he is in a muddy field in Somerset orchestrating NYC Downlow (Glastonbury’s first dedicated queer space). Whilst at university, his involvement with the free party scene led him to buy a 55 seater coach to house his huge sound system and, after stints living onboard said coach and in the US, GIDEÖN now resides in his birthplace of South London where he can often be found digging through his incredible vinyl selection to identify secret weapons to play to passionate crowds either in the club environment or at huge demonstrations that require a discerning soundtrack.FOLLOW US Instagram: @houseculturenetSpotify: House Culture - Perfect PlaylistYouTube: @houseculturenet||

Mr. C is a true icon of the electronic music scene.

Having recently scaled back his involvement with his wildly successful Superfreq brand of parties, he now shifts his focus to self-expression as an artist, eager to explore how emerging technology can elevate his DJ performances to even greater heights.FOLLOW US Instagram: @houseculturenetSpotify: House Culture - Perfect PlaylistYouTube: @houseculturenet||
