We’re delighted to present the second in a three-part series of monthly workshops hosted by the team at fabric, London’s premier electronic music venue.
LOOKING AFTER YOUR WELLNESS IN THE NIGHTLIFE INDUSTRY
We all know working in the nightlife industry can be exciting, but it can also come with a unique set of pressures. In this intimate online workshop, DJ and promoter Indi Khera (aka Mantra) will talk about her personal experience balancing self-care with a passion for electronic music, offering learnings, strategies and resources for you to apply in your own lives. She will cover topics such as:
- working late
- drug/alcohol abuse
- dealing with your inner critic as a performer
- developing a healthy relationship with social media
- navigating the insecurity of freelance work
- motherhood and managing friendships in the industry
This will be an informal and open session with lots of opportunities to ask questions and share experiences/ learnings of your own so it’s worth joining live if you can.
ABOUT INDI (AKA MANTRA
Representing real drum and bass at its finest, Mantra’s deep and emotive sound in the mix comes from an intense passion for the music, with her sets pushing the boundaries of drum and bass while still paying homage to its foundation.
Far more than just a DJ and producer, Mantra’s work developing, curating, and promoting the Rupture brand, as a label and as jungle’s premier event, speak to how deeply drum and bass culture influences her life. Community work has played a vital role in her life and in 2018 she co founded the initiative EQ50 to mentor and support women within the heavily male dominated drum and bass genre.
Rupture’s continued growth and success, built with her partner Double O, are a testament to Mantra’s dedication to the junglist movement. Borne from a desire to take club nights back to basics, Rupture has grown for over a decade to form what is now recognized as London’s best underground D&B night. With original line-ups that combine forward-thinking up-and-comers with jungle legends, Mantra and Double O’s hard work and residency on Kool FM have seen Rupture move from a party into a seminal label, supported by the likes of Om Unit, DJ Storm, dBridge, Doc Scott, Special Request, Digital, and Spirit.
