MY NEON NOIR NIGHTS – Print series (#MNNN2)

Clubbin’ innit

This gallery in the MNNN print series is dedicated to the joys of clubbing which is currently and sadly very absent from our lives. Will we ever feel the intensity of a packed dancefloor again? Swirling together amidst the lights, squeezed into a sweat box, hugging your mates like your life depended on it, punching the air as you go apeshit to your favourite track…is there anything quite like it? Well, if its removal from our lives has proved one thing, no, there isn’t and we desperately need it back. In the meantime we can gaze at a dance dominated life that once was and will be again.

This print series consists of 10 galleries, 10 prints in each gallery, 10 copies of each print = 100 shots at £100 a pop  for each limited edition A3 print (420x297mm approx) which is not only 50% off the normal price but also £30 of each sale will go to https://thefelixproject.org/ who are sourcing food that would go to waste and delivering it to those who desperately need it – each 30 quid will generate a whopping 183 meals. So you get a print, 183 people get fed and I make a sale, that’s a win,win,win in my books. Or you could just make a donation…

To order a print or for any more info please email info@babycakesromero.com or DM me on Insta.

(offer ends 15th Dec so there is time to get it to you b4 Xmas)

#MYIBZA 5 (B.C)

Somer moody shots this week to get you in the mood (see what i did there) for a series taken in Ibiza exactly this time last year during the closing week of the season. Why now? Well, firstly, I want to show a country that supports and champions clubbing and exists primarily because of it. It would appear not everywhere has so little regard for dance culture as they do here in Britain, where almost nothing is being done to protect the venues and the workers of the nightlife/events industry which is currently unable to function in any genuine capacity. Other countries in Europe (remember that place?) see it as a vital component of their society and their economy are doing everything they can to ensure it survives the ravages of the ongoing Covid freeze.

It is beyond painful to me to watch the U.K gov turn its back on the nitelife industry and everyone who works within it. The Tories do not see how essential it is. They do not consider culture important at all. They never have. And they know that most people who work in the creative industries do not vote for them so why should they help them? Never mind how much money it makes (66 billion a year), how many jobs (1.6 million) or how many people it attracts from all over the world…none of this seems to be a consideration. Forget about the amount of joy and pleasure it generates. No, fuck all that, let’s just let it die and all you leftie muso druggie layabouts can fuck off and try and get real jobs ‘cos we ain’t doin shit all to get you out of this mess…

And secondly, (no, I hadn’t forgotten) there is fuck all going on here at the moment so we might as well hang out in Ibiza (B.C) and party like its 2019…

p. s if you are in U.K and have ever been out and gone to any event whatsoever at any point in your life, please sign this petition for our Gov to give further financial support to the hospitality and events industry or you might never again…
