    Story

    This Just Giving page has been set up to raise both awareness of depression in the dance music industry & raise money for the family of our dearly departed brother Laurent Blondeau aka Lo.

    One month ago after a bout of depression, the dance music community suffered yet another loss when Techno & House music DJ & Producer Lo took his own life. He is survived by his beautiful family Juliette, Lena & Nino. All money from this page will go directly to Lo's family. Please donate whatever you can afford, no matter how small.

    Lo's passing has devastated the underground dance music community the world over & none more so than in London & his home town of Calais France where their communities have come together for various fundraising activities.

    Get In The Mix, MisFit, Spilt Milk, Superfreq, The Ministry, Wiggle, Zombies & 241 have all come together as a loving community to host a joint event dedicated in the memory of our dearly departed brother Lo & raise money for the family he has left behind.

    This event will be at The Ministry, 79-81 Borough Rd, London SE1 1DN, UK. It, starts at 6pm on Friday 16th August & run until late. We will be having an auction from 8pm - 9pm UK time that will be broadcast live on the Superfreq page on Facebook with lots of amazing donations (see below), from which all proceeds will be placed into this Just Giving page & going Lo's family along with all other proceeds from this event.

    Line up across 2 rooms in Alphabetical order: Alexi Delano (ADLtd) / Axel Vandemalle (Blacknote / Calais) / Broken Neon (241 / Superfreq) / Dutchie (Right Nut / Superfreq) / Eddie Richards (Wiggle) / Luke vB (Superfreq) / Mr.C (Superfreq) / Sam Monie (Stark Futures) / Shane Watcha (Zombies) / Stick (Bombis / Superfreq) / Terry Francis (Wiggle) / Tred Benedict (Spilt Milk).

      We're doing really well. We've done a memorial event & auction, money is still coming in from that. Our Superfreq dream team Dutchie, Michy, Kemal & Richard crossed the English Channel in kayaks, sponsored & supported by Get In The Mix. We still have the Lo Collection containing over 50 amazing tracks to be released on Bandcamp, all proceeds of which will be added to this page. Please continue to share this page both raising awareness for mental health issues within dance music & also raising money for our dearly departed Lo's family.

    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

    The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

    Great people make things happen

    Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

    Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!
