Progress Bar

CLUB: Dasychira (DJ) Elysia Crampton: 'Red Clouds' feat. Why Be (Live) Rabit: 'Les Fleurs Du Mal' feat. Cecilia (Live)Progress Bar aims to represent radical equality, communality and hopefulness. We are a growing community of artists, academics and activists who occupy clubs for a better politics. When confronted with the world today – institutional inequality, neofascism, platform capitalism, austerity and a dying planet – being happy becomes a political act. We support radical club cultures that believe resistance is necessary in order to change the world. Or, as a play on the famous quote by the feminist and anarchist activist Emma Goldman: If I can dance, I want to be part of your revolution.
