Over the last 12 months plus, Lo*Kee has become one of our favourite parties – set initially in a holed-up, battened down warehouse conversion in the depths of Limehouse, East London, it kept itself away form the Shoreditch Stretch and managed to forge an identity all of its own – Because It Cares.
A bi-weekly secret (but for those in the know), Lo*kee played host to a variety of guests, including Geddes, Below residents Adam Shelton, Subb-an and Despo, Berlin’s Bar 25 crew – and an afterparty specially requested in advance by none other than a post-Fabric Ricardo Villalobos. So he wasn’t there. We didn’t need him. He missed out.
Huge kudos to Nic, Nick and Sebastian, who put their heart and soul into what was a truly unique venue, The Candy Factory. Here’s the footage from their final hours of their last party there in May.<p>
Lo*Kee is now bi-weekly at The Ink Yard, in Hackney. Its a superb venue that has thus far housed the likes of Lee Curtiss, Gavin Herlihy and Jamie Jones.
