In May this year we unfortunately had a break at our music studio and over £8,000 worth of equipment was stolen. This equipment had been built up and collected over a number of years - items including a 17inch imac, Adam Studio Monitors, Microphones, several Keyboards & Synths, Drum Machines and much more.

Obviously as you can imagine this was heartbreaking for us,  we lost hours and hours of music work and samples that were stored on the imac & external hard drives,  we were also frustratingly uninsured leaving us at a complete loss.

The Bristol music scene/community really came together for us once word spread and a lot of awareness was raised but unfortunately didn't lead to the culprits being caught - at this moment in time we are still none the wiser as to who was behind it but we now aim to move onwards and upwards and hopefully this is where you amazing people come in! 

If you would just like to make a donation towards the cause please just click pledge on this page and you can donate towards our rebuild without entering into any of our incentives. Anyone who pledges shall recieve a digital copy of Blacksmiths 'Old School, New School, No School Rules' Beat Tape as a thank you.

First things first we are putting on a club night 'Backlash' at the Thekla on August 21st featuring an amazing all star list of DJ's who are all coming together to help us out..we are announcing new artists to the line up daily and there will be some surprises on the night but so far we have announced..
