#MusicPeopleParty 2021 - On Stage On Screen Via situationist social media, BUGEYE, Monefa Walker, Jean Genie's Massive Hugs plus Roobi TV are the first picks. Forming: 'Love Is The Vaccine'. A short that is centred around Jean Genie Graham, Planet Water's bringer of sunshine. Respected purveyor of Panda Power, DJ, radio presenter and producer, live events promoter, hot potential scout and creator. Too often, the "diverse (including half of the humans!) are sidelined in the entertainment world despite spicing it up. JG's CV is that of a music industrial (r)evolution leader. As Jean Genie's Massive Hugs, she crafts, sings and strums beautiful melodies . We have lived the stereotyped life but stealthily helped to forge the Fertile Environment with a growing community of friends. Jean Genie has put together an eclectic and entertainingly electric bill of live music at South Norwood Community Festival which happens on 18th July 2021 exactly where London Borough Of Culture 2022 (Lewisham) meets 2023 (Croydon). Come rain or shine, a euphoric bonus and positive boost to the locality and therefore the capital. Jean Genie isa co-founder of Rocklands* Music Group which started at Pop Of The Tops club ("New Cross Scene" HQ) with Heartbreaker DJs - and myself typing this, Caffy St Luce. Quiet Riot Grrrlz! (*Rocklands SELondon postcodes = where Lovers Rock meets Rocker's Love)

Notes 1/3 : Background. Jean Genie Graham is one of my inspirations. The following has happened because she is one of many talented friends who have made mystical musical adventures swirl around Planet Water's increasing reality to fuse a solid foundation for new futures. This Newer Wave are naturally more diverse because we are the unpriviledged with no sense of entitlement. We create because we are compelled. My family friend circle is one of gifted individuals who all bring something different and special to the U4RIC requirements of building a better world than one fuelled by propaganda for hate to keep us divided while our home world, the living organism jewel of the universe, dies. Nature believes in music, and so do I. I believe in music tourism as a blueprint for a positive society, education, local employment, social collusion and the mental health benefits of having fun. As Minxy McNaughty, hands on researched that viability: Minxy McNaughty - Love Pirate (Water)/Caffy St Luce - Promoter (Earth) I'm also all the usual olde worlde descriptions - but this is who I actually am.

Notes 2/3 : Kismet Karma Synchronicity/Herstory Year 003 - The Magic Number - Pop Of The Tops Club (launched March) is instigated by a Corporation:Blend band meeting and the weekends start on a Tuesday. By Autumn the regulars (artists of all kinds, students, locals) have started new DJs, clubs, labels and more. October's events are documented in film/photography and decorated by the South East X hibition (The Faeries Band, Kana Go Go and various photographers including Paul Joyzine)


In 2003 - part of the Decade With No Name, ruined by the ConDem party's "Austerity" Heist - Newer Wave rockers, The Novus are 3 years old. Polarized Eyes, Nandi Bushell, Arlo the Pint Size Punk and Scarlet Hall of Mashzine aren't even twinkles in an eye, yet. C:B's drummer, Ash Howard, is now Nandi Bushell's drum teacher. Year 004 - Music Tourist Board Lewisham elects the first Young Mayor - the first and longest-running programme in the UK Spring: "A disparate group with a near psychotic level of civic pride have set up the Music Tourist Board, promoting the self styled borough of Rocklands with the ultimate fanatical aim of getting the area declared an independent rock n roll republic." (NME) Autumn: The short film and documentaries, 'Rocklands - Live In New Cross' by Digital Sneakers/Blaine Brotehrs is at cinemas, John Kennedy radio special, launch gigs all over London, Blaine Brothers now a film festival/Channel 4 regular, 'The New Cross' (Angular Records) Gang of (SE)4 is NME album of the year. (In September 2019 I declared “Rocklands Costa Del Thames” an independent rock n roll republic and dedicated a facebook page to it). Year 005 - ArtfulFest (October 1st-31st) events/ installations/any excuse to party. Artful/ArtBeat (audiovisual power) Year 006 - Outdoors! Creative Lewisham connected Rocklands Stage to People's Day Festival and to Nanette Rigg (creator of 21st century multi venue festivals) at City Showcase. The latter also helped us stage at The Apple Store on Regent Street, The British Music Experience at The 02 and much more. Year 007 Rocklands Party - "The 24 Hour Concrete Glastonbury" across the SE8 (Deptford) and SE14 (New Cross) London postcodes. David Ham of GigSlutz connects me with local rock legends, Officer Kicks. Year 008 RAR! 14+ monthly live music/DJs club with Kate & Tristan (who ran New Cross Inn, adding a style boutique with a stage) and the Young Mayor Of Lewisham. Started with Pendulum DJs, ended with Tinie Tempah (via Jean Genie being one of the poster stars). The peace power of music joy in evidence. Year 009 Uniqulture was born 1/1. That summer Rocklands created Today Deptford community arts weekend 3rd and 4th July inspired by the Squeeze T-shirts 'Today Deptford, Tomorrow The World'. Music Tourist Board invited by Red Cable Sunday (Water)/Denis Fernando (Earth) to City Hall for Olympics planning and to Westminster for a Ken Livingstone version of what Uniqulture was about with a longer title. Year 010 Bronze Year on Planet Water (and Music Tourist Board has online mag, 'Monthly Planet' and Panda Power moves to The Heavenly Social in Central London). Year 011 Silver Year - There's now an official City Showcase Rocklands Year 012 Gold Year - Now Danny Boyle's Olympic ceremony can be viewed as the opening scenes of a dystopian car crash in slow motion as the old world ends and (even more) insane overgreed overwhelms humanity's mental health, physical health and potential extinction. The aware are now mocked as "woke".

More Female Fronted Events join Panda Power…/


Spring 2012 : Playhard gigs start during International Live Music Conference. TV/Film/Video creator, Heather Minx and promoter, Caffy unite to create a live music tv stream show at Camden Purple Turtle. Autumn 2012: Rocklands promotes ArtBeat Amersham Arms monthly music socials - Chaos Magick, fruit and hugs. 12/12/12-21/12/12, as predicted the real world ends on the lead singer of Bad Wolf's birthday. Year 013 - The 21st Century 's teenage years begin. ArtBeat regulars inspire a follow up to Monthly Planet. Simply called TheZineUK. Short for magazine, the UK is united KIN. Interviews with Mourning Birds and CuT are the first threads in the tapestry alongside a 15 minute legendary live appearance at Natural History Museum by Rhiannon The Nightmare which becomes the first doc's front page.

Notes 3/3 : Zeenagers are Generation Tremorists! Season 1 - The Road Show from Tin Pan Alley to The Music People Party 2014 New Year: TheZineUK launches with punk and poetry on Tin Pan Alley. Lisa Paulon spots the potential and Rocklands/TheZineUK official stage that Summer Solstice Saturday night at the Camden Crawling Festival Finale where I kinda meet lovely Keira Cullinane there, it's a long story with a lovely ending. 14th March - Upload Chapter 1 of TheZineUK picture diary. We are go. #FootballMusic (Pete Doherty/Soccer Six at the David Beckham Academy), Fiona Bevan, Steve Double photography. Made by Rupert Hitchcox (now with our Balcony Festival comrades, Joyzine) the last page is an image from TryLife TV episode 2. One of Floodliners, Georgia South, is now half of Nova Twins. Imagine artist tales like that times at least 69 over the last seven years. We are a tips directory documentary and love-in. There are ups and downs. We are imperfect. There have been the usual behind the scenes dramatics, laughter, tears and the downright ridiculous. That is to be expected. We are, after all, shaping the next rock music industry at grassroots level. TheZineUK fuses performance and production with technology and visual creativity, day dreams, night dreams and all natural body creams. Poetic souls and individual style all melting potted into the agree-to-disagree uniqulture of realising we are all only human. Official Stage, also at @AltEscape where the real scouting goes on. Bad Wolf launch 'False Conscience' a Great British Rock classic of an album. The band will later step into DR WTF's TARDIS and have not been seen since. Caffy/Minxy McNaughty is invited to be Events Manager at The Ministry Of Fluff N Dreams (a.k.a. Number3London) by Grant Baines/DJ Menace. Raves, theatre, photo sessions, parties, discos, clubs, art gallery, film and video shoots, talks, clothing swaps and so much more including #No3Expo (Uniqulture break out: 42 stands including a live music stage and bar). People came back to the door and donated more than the entry. Crapitalist Gentrification ended these love vibrations in Spring 2015.


2015, 2016, 2017 - TheZineUK official stages at Alt Escape with End Of The Trail Records. No.3 Expo (March 2015) and ArtBeat Expo (September 2015)- Nova Twins play both. Loud Women (2015), ArtBeatFest (2-3 April 2016 Amersham Arms), post Brexit pick up? The inaugural DecoloniseFest meeting (DIY London). 1st April 2017 - ArtBeat Artists promo joins the Rocklands Events promo on a day out with The Blinders as I limped around Q2 Festival in Derby then the Pirate Studios Sheffield launch. Caffy, Mansun fan, gig mate Arlene's daughter, Monefa Walker, grew up and assisted with this great rosta as well as writing for TheZineUK (with great feedback from Shirley Manson of Garbage among more) ArtBeat PR) has worked in various capacities with Bugeye, The Velvet Hands, Smiley & The Underclass, The Pagans S.O.H., The Rezner, Strange Bones, Sick Love, The Wha, The Shimmer Band, Ivory Wave, The Cosmics, SONS, 485C and TheZineUK documentary as clients. All with results. See clip of post-school (2017) The Velvet Hands with poet, Rohan Murray at the original site: https://artfulmtb.wixsite.com/artbeatstars

With Dizzy Spell as Editor, TheZineUK's profile has consistently risen, establishing the documentary. It's a mostly female team now. 485C and Mourning Birds support False Heads at Modern Age's End Of Year 229. TheZineUK team up with #MusicWomen to launch The Music People Party. The Velvet Hands kick it off and Katie Owen DJs.

Season 2 (2018 to Revive Live May 2021) 2018-2019 our cast and crew start to take seed, sometimes in places that working class artists could only dream of previously. Our friends at This Feeling have very much to do with this. Respect. On Saturday 6th April, Cro Cro Land festival in Croydon rewrites the rules with a three stage all dayer of representation and diversity booked for a select bill of top quality entertainment and a love and fun breakout of mass friendship. A genuine blueprint.

2020-2021 (1) WTF.

(2) Pandemica is Climate Emergency Armageddon, The Muppets Remix. Callous tragic horrorism driven by overgreedy reptillian farce holes. Hate Island transfixed by Love Island. (3) On the other hand, the interdependent grass roots multiverse of scenes of every genre have shaped the rearing roaring twenties. Focus on the positivity we can build. Artists should be classed among key workers as they have uplifted so many. Our mental health is key when "normality" is ridiculous. Simultaneously, post Brexit love-power and supernatural talent rise inspires the ideas factory fuelling our next moves. Some "festivals" reverted back to the 1970s when it came to booking females.

Season 3 From Despair to Where? Our government, Music Venue Trust, helped us get to some grassroots venues still standing and TheZineUK are on board with this fight all the way. Zeenagers are The Generation Tremorists of star honing circuit where the music movement swells. Even when we are locked down we're not yet fully knocked down. BPI positive article 11th June. Whatever the final safety date, The #MusicPeopleParty 2021 will include footage created until the end of ArtfulFest October + Ghost Road. Today is 14th June and so far we have music by BUGEYE and Monefa Walker joining Jean Genie's Massive Hugs soundtracking 'Love Is The Vaccine'. This is situationism. What happens next?
