Passing Clouds

Name
Passing Clouds
Category
Communal spaces and places, Festivals, Music, Protest and activism
Description

Something of a musical and cultural institution in East London. It’s a club, a real and on-line community. Like many other music and cultural centres (and music pubs) it’s also under threat from property development.

Passing Clouds is celebrated for bringing together musicians from a diverse range of international backgrounds to collaborate through the universal language of music and a collective desire for peace and harmony on the earth.

In this way, Passing Clouds celebrates the true diversity of culture in Hackney, London and the world and provides a living demonstration of the ability for people of all backgrounds to come together in love, respect and understanding.

Psychedelic Sweet Shop
Category

Description

‘Closed’ Facebook group celebrating all manner of psych music and more.

You have to make a request to join.

They say: “The Sweet Shop is a place for everyone to forget their worries and have fun!! Therefore the rules of the group are quite simple, no porn, no buying or selling of drugs, no petty arguments or criticising other members posts (they might not appreciate your tastes either)….although there is a lot of freedom in what music is posted here, please remember the title 'The Psychedelic Sweet Shop' so it would be appreciated if the roots of the group can be maintained. Thank you, and enjoy!”

About

We aim to incorporate:

– an ideas exchange – with various forums for discussion and debate
– resources sections with hyperlinks and actual information material. Potentially an online library with links to specific resources and publications, images, videos, and
– a 'web of hubs’ to sites, organisations and individuals around the world.
It’s a bold dream…we hope you and friends will help it grow…
