London Battle will take over Somerset House’s iconic outdoor courtyard for a day packed with showcases, workshops, cyphers, live DJs and a big outdoor party. In celebration of the 50th anniversary of hip hop culture and with Breaking set to be the highlight of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Dance Umbrella and Somerset House are bringing together some of the most exciting talent from the four corners of London to go head-to head across a diverse range of styles. Curated by choreographer Jade Hackett, who has performed with some of the UK’s leading hip hop dance theatre companies including Boy Blue and ZooNation, you will help the judges to decide which part of our global city brings the best dance flavour – north, south, east or west. https://youtu.be/pIf0CtaQLxQ https://danceumbrella.co.uk/event/jade-hackett-london-battle/ https://www.instagram.com/thecapsule.ldn/ https://www.instagram.com/danceumbrella/ https://www.instagram.com/jade.hackett/ https://www.instagram.com/contentisqueenhq/

This episode I sat down with Alex 'Mechanikool' Peters, a long standing  figure in the UK street dance scene. We discuss the transitions in the  UK popping scene, him wanting to find his place in it all, feelings of  insecurity and fearing change, Boogaloo vs G-style in the UK, and ask  who the next generation of UK poppers are.

Thanks to the University of East London Dance: Urban Practice program for hosting us!

On day one of Litefest 2021, I hosted a panel discussion with the  event's judges at the end of the first day. It is the first ever live  podcast we've managed to do, and hopefully there will be plenty more to  come. We discussed Litefeet from different perspectives, how the guests  approach judging, why Litefeet in the UK is dominated by out-of-London  dancers, and plenty more.

In this episode, I spoke with an old friend - Adil 'Khanfu'. Adil is a battle DJ, primarily in the breakin' scene. We discuss his recent participation in Red Bull BC One, how a DJ structures their music for a  battle, how DJ's can affect the outcome of a battle, the difference between using vinyl and Serato, battle tactics as a dancer, and much more.

Sunni Brummitt is a Red Bull sponsored athlete from the United Kingdom, who has been breakin' for many years. As he has just arrived back in the UK from living in Holland, I had to get him on the podcast. We discuss breakin' being in the Olympic Games and what that means for the culture, his history with Soul Mavericks Crew, his recent work as a Red Bull athlete, and finish with his thoughts on the vaccine and who he's putting his money on to win the Red Bull BC One UK Qualifier in August. www.thedukeldn.com

In this episode I spoke to Marion Motin, a french choreographer who started in the Parisian battle scene. We discuss her deciding to spend time discovering her own style, being labelled a contemporary choreographer or a hip hop choreographer, whether she considers the audience when creating, finding your superpower within your artistry, and her upcoming livestream-performance of 'Rouge' featuring the amazing dancers of Rambert.  www.thedukeldn.com

For this episode I went to Sadler's Wells Theatre to speak with the face  of Breakin' Convention, Jonzi D. We discuss the term 'Hip Hop Theatre'  and it's boundaries, the pressures of becoming a gatekeeper, making  enemies through programming, and of course - we discuss this year's  festival.

This episode was curated & co-hosted by Taya Jones, as part of her internship with The University of East London's Urban Practice Degree.

This episode I had Carla Trim-Vamben, Jo Read & Robert Nicholson from the BA (Hons) Dance: Urban Practice Degree at the University of East London. They are the leading program focusing on hip hop dance in a degree format in the UK, so I wanted to have a chat with them about the scene and what they do. It was really nice to sit down with them and discuss all the hard work they do, moulding the young dancers of our scene.

This week was super interesting for me. I have Celine, Ash & Omar in the studio with me to talk about the London Ballroom Scene. This is something I have very little experience in, so was really interested to learn about it and to get to know these lovely people. Honestly had a great time.

This week, my old friend Robia came through for some drinks! She is an extremely talented dancer and choreographer who's work is universally appreciated. We consumed some beverages and discussed some wildly varying topics. We talk tech runs, starsigns, misinformation, what it takes for an artist to 'make it', and her experience at 'All Star Game'  in Paris.

This week it was my birthday (on wednesday) so I decided to do an  episode of the podcast for myself. I brought in two of my closest  friends, Lee Putman & Abe Jarman. I have known them for around  thirteen years and we have made so many memories together. They are also  two phenomenal dancers who have plenty of experience between them. We  competed as part of the 'UMA Crew' although that is only one part of our  journey and friendship.
Hope you enjoy this one - I definitely did.

Ivan Blackstock is a multi-disciplinary creative, who started (and  remains) in the dance scene. He is someone I looked up to for a long  time, so it was great to have a chat with him. We discuss his departure  from Birdgang, his feeling of being underappreciated and his future  plans. Thanks to Pirate Studios for hosting us this week.

Magical Bones may be most well known as a magician and performer, but he was (and still is) a huge part of the UK dance scene. Starting as a b-boy and a popper, he was around the scene for years. We discuss his journey from dancer to professional magician, his views on Diversity's BLM performance and the BLM movement as a whole, and of course his experience being on Britains Got Talent. At the time of release he has passed through the semi finals and is a week away from the finals. ~
We wish him the best of luck! Everybody go vote for Magical Bones!

This week Shaadow Sefiroth passed through to have a chat. He is a creative director, movement designer & digital consultant who is originally from France. He moved to the UK and began dancing here not long after I had started to settle in to the scene in London. We discuss social media, his company 'Noesis' and our opinions on the UK street dance scene.

In this weeks episode I spoke to Jordan Matheson, also known as Flash Jordan. We haven't spoken much before and this was a great way to get to know him outside of a dance event. We get into some deep talks! We discuss Jordan's journey in to fitness as well as our understanding of consent, sexuality and cultural appropriation.

Vanessa Marina, also known as 'B-Girl Vanessa' is a breaker originally  from Portugal who now lives in London. She is an old friend, someone I  met at 'Eurobattle' around ten years ago when I first started travelling  for competitive dance. We discuss staying motivated, her 'Tiny Room  Workouts' and her views on being a woman in the breakin' scene.

Rory Clarke is a sixteen year old dancer who has been making waves in the London dance scene in recent years. He has danced for Zoonation Youth Company, currently is active with Kieran Warner's Litefeet Crew 'K-Fam' and has been at many battles and events as an individual. We have had a few brief conversations sparked by his thoughts on a few of my previous podcasts, so I decided to invite him on to speak to him directly. I was also eager to get his view on the dance scene (and the world) as I'm aware he has a very different perspective on it.

NB: Rory's mum gave permission for him to be on the podcast and for me not to censor myself, in terms of swear-words. Although I did try to keep my bad language to a minimum. Big thanks to Rory's mum, Laura.

Emmanuel 'Manny' Adelekun, is a b-boy, writer and creative based on the London scene. Coming up through the breakin' scene with La Familia and Soul Mavericks, he has plenty of experience in the London dance scene. We discuss... a lot. From writing, to the Olympics, to Red Bull to dance events. Me and Manny haven't had a lot of opportunities to sit down and talk over the years we've known each other, so we had a lot to talk about!

Yukino McHugh is a performer from Japan/Australia who has spent the last two years living and working in the UK. Unfortunately she is leaving us, so I wanted to check in with her before she did. We reflect on her time here in London, the business side of dance, working for ZooNation and competing in Battle Opera.

This week I had a chat with David 'Spin' Gaviria, a breaker from  Columbia who has been an integral part of the London breakin' scene for  years, at the Wacky Barbers in Soho. We discussed the competition circuit, family life as a bboy and breakin' being considered a sport.

Just a little bit of me in between episodes. Seeing as I just passed my  first small milestone by releasing 10 episodes, I thought I'd explain a  little bit about why I started the podcast. I wanted to share some  insight and explain some things that I've been discussing in real life  conversations since I started this. Hope you enjoy. Our regularly  scheduled episode will be out tomorrow morning as usual.

This week I had a chat with The Red Dread House Head, Frankie J. We  discussed how intentional his rise to success was, how it's important to  find your niche in the dance industry, allowing things to evolve  naturally and more.

While in Kerry, Ireland for a judging job I took the opportunity to sit down with Tanaya Martin. At 1.00am, after a long day of work and a couple of beers, we had a chat in the hotel room. We covered the importance of finding 'you' in hip hop culture, using dance as a tool to grow, Ice's journey with Noesis & Future Formalities and had plenty of laughs along the way.

A succesful choreographer, accomplished artist and a battler with many wins under his belt. Brooke Milliner popped over to have a chat this week. We discuss his competitive nature, his call-out at Juste Debout UK, battle tactics/approaches and his reserved nature. 

This week I had a chat with Nadia Sohawon, the Founder of 'FreeYourStyle' agency. We've known each other for a long time and as a result covered a lot of varying topics. We speak about tattoos, our heritage, colonisation, past jobs, language and some more random bits & pieces. Lots of laughs were had and it was a great time with an old friend.

He's leaving us! A good friend (and ex-flatmate) of mine, Tomas 'T-Boy' Drafi is moving back to Slovakia. Before he left, I asked him to swing by so that we could have a chat. We discuss his Gypsy heritage, our shared interest in fashion & the partner dance 'Hustle', of which he is a well-renowned teacher.

Harry Barnes, also known as 'Dirty Harry', passed through The Duke LDN Studios this week to have a chat. We discuss his journey through the London dance scene: from a hopeful beginner to a seriously heavy hitter on the battle circuit. We also speak about how he ended up joining London's 'Monsterz Crew', coming from The Wirral (not Liverpool) and why he'll never move down south.

This week I spoke to Durah Abdullah (or as I have always known her - "Deedee"). Although we first met through the UK dance scene, Duran creates and works across many artistic disciplines. We discuss our motivations behind creating, how artists are perceived in society and her intentional step back from the underground dance scene in London.

In my first ever episode of 'The Duke LDN Podcast' I speak with an old friend of mine, Kieran Warner. We discuss his journey through the dance scene, weightloss, injuries and his involvement in the dance style 'Litefeet' and it's culture and development.
