Lucy's curated nights at De School have been forming a particular story, from the first night with Paula Temple, to wild affairs with Oake's power-powerful live show, Lady Starlight's modular drum workout, Kangding Ray's frosty night beats and Rrose's expressive hybrid shows. I've come to love the rituals of this collaboration, working with Lucy on the nights, meeting again, talking about the Sicilian sun, yoga practices, drinking the driest wine in house, opening the night with a cup of tea, a cigarette. Tonight we close off this second year of teamwork with Lucy's first all night set in the basemenent.
In anticipation of the night I asked Lucy to talk us through a few possible transitions for tonight, crossroads in the narrative of a long night.
