Earthly's first ever Pride welcomes international guest Sam PV, and local legends KNDYFRK (Kandylion b2b SPRFRK) ABOUT THE ARTISTS :: Sam is the founder and a resident at Pumping Velvet, a London-based Queer dance party, and regularly plays at queer parties across the UK and US and other international gigs including Planeta Manas (Lisbon), Savage (Hanoi), Kockiri (Seoul) and (Re)treat Festival (Vietnam). Sam grew up in London, his tastes moulded by the city’s diverse dance music scenes: from childhood trips to Notting Hill Carnival, to formative dancefloor experiences at nights like FWD, Trash and Süd Electronic. He brings these influences to his DJing in sets that span a broad gamut of genres, tied together by a love for big drums, pop melodies, sensual sub-bass and sleaze. Frustrated by the lack of queer spaces where you could hear both a Svek record and Kylie in the same night, Sam founded Pumping Velvet in 2018, driven by the firm belief that any barriers erected between pop and ‘serious’ dance music are entirely artificial and that there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure. It’s this same ethos and disregard for boundaries that makes his DJ so thrilling. -- KNDYFRK is the house-centric, percussion-forward, flamboyant-yet-soulful product of the combined talents of Brooklyn DJs Kandylion and SPRFRK. Both longtime disciples of the Brooklyn underground queer dance scene, their chemistry behind the decks is dynamic and joyful, a fusion of their respective musical stylings into an experience that is equal parts sweet and freaky.
