There was music, there were people, and there was absolutely no shortage of character.
Our after-hours parties brought deep house and hip hop together, with Freznick and Halo-Jerome on the decks doing what they do best. Behind the camera, meanwhile, there were plenty of moments worth keeping.
Liberty and her mate Mina appear to be negotiating a track request with Halo-Jerome. Whether he played it is another story.
Lost in the music.

Liberty was soon back where she belonged, dancing like nobody was watching. Which is always a good approach, particularly when everyone is watching.

Then there's Freznick, captured from the dancefloor side of the decks, concentrating on his melodic magic. No posing, no fuss, just getting on with it.

Elsewhere, Choluke looks suspiciously like someone who's just been caught doing something he probably won't explain. And Z-Hoffen appears delighted to be there, although the look he's giving the camera suggests we've interrupted something important.

One more tune?
The funny thing about nights like these is that the details start to blur. We're not even entirely sure every photograph came from the same night. They all seem to run into one another: the music, the faces, the dancing, the conversations and that familiar feeling that there's always time for one more tune.
Looking back, that's what makes these pictures worth sharing. They're not carefully staged highlights or a polished account of what happened. They're little glimpses of the people and personalities that made DISTRICT. what it was becoming.
A proper hoot of a night. Possibly several.
Either way, the decks were busy, the dancefloor had its moments, and the camera caught enough to bring a few memories back.
