about us
love.is.audio. was started in Spring 2003 by Ben Smith and Jamie Favell throwing intimate parties in the upstairs room of Chalk Farm's Monkey Chews to an assembled throng of friends, acquaintances and the curious. With a wide ranging music policy best defined as "soul-jazz-hiphop-funk-house-disco-beats" a reputation was quickly established that represented quality music with a heavy dollop of fun! Transferring the funk downstairs the night has become a heaving monthly party and has played host to heavyweight guest DJs such as TM Juke (Tru-Thoughts), Simpson (Zebra Traffic), Dr Rubberfunk & DJ Simon S (Break Reform).
Other venues have fallen under the spell of the love.is.audio. vibe with regular jam "A Love Supreme" evolving at award winning bar The Social. Dedicated to partying on a Monday night "The Smallest Stage In London" has witnessed live sets by upcoming acts Carpetface, The Naciente Quartet and Mr Guder as well as DJs Crispin Dior, Ali Tillet (warm) and Matt Anderson (Samba-Raro).
love.is.audio.s first year was rounded off nicely with a couple of hundred ravers squeezing into Positively 4th Street on New Years Eve for a raise the roof party that kept rockin' til 6 in the mor-ning!
Operating under a DIY ethos, all design, promotion and marketing is carried out within the love.is.audio. family with friends always willing to help out in the good cause of throwing a party...and in the end, isn't that what its all about?!
More new nights and special events are planned in 2004.
