Mistress De Funk is guest editor @ NOISE LAB for March

I am pleased to be guest editor at the NOISE LAB for the month of March, so of course, this means March is music month, but with some lovely twists!

I came to work at the NOISE LAB in January, a couple of days a week.  I was taken on as community liaison officer, meaning it was my job to involve the community in what is going on at the LAB.  Each month the LAB has a guest editor.  In January it was Barney, from DOODLEBUG,  and he drafted in artists like Jon Burgerman, and Mark Wigan, so we were privilged to have amazing animators and illustrators creating art all over  the LAB!  In February, we had magazine month, so Super Super and Flux magazine shared the residency and both brought amazing ideas with them.  Lots of photography and style workshops, and even the opportunity to get your work in the magazines. 

So when I was asked to be guest editor for March, I of course jumped straight to music.  I am a full time dj and music producer, and a former radio one presenter, so throughout March expect a really varied and diverse schedule of artists.  From bands, to radio presenters, electronic music production, even a workshop for styling a band.  There will be record labels floating about throughout the month so plenty of opportunity to make contacts and get advice.

.  You can learn how to succesfully promote music events, how to manage yourself as an artist, and also how to set up a record label.
