LSFF Lates at the ICA returns during the London Short Film Festival as a relaxed, social space for filmmakers, festivalgoers and music lovers to come together. Across the week, attendees can mix, mingle and catch up after screenings, with guest DJs providing the soundtrack each night to keep the energy flowing. 9pm till midnight at the ICA Bar.
Kicking things off on Saturday 24 January, interdisciplinary artist Maya Aki brings emotive reflections through ambient textures and electronic rhythms. She’s joined by self-confessed “raver forever” Andrew Juke (Tekker, Das Booty), delivering high-energy selections rooted in dancefloor culture.
On Tuesday 27 January, Margiuelle (Neu Radio) takes over the decks, weaving sonic tension across electro, new wave, ambient, EBM, leftfield and techno for a genre-blurring late.
Wednesday 28 January explores varied subcultural sounds from classic indie to obscure hardcore with Eylem Boz alongside actor and DJ Aaron Hodgetts, who joins the night with his own selections.
The week wraps up on Thursday 29 January with the return of sometime Midnight Expresso and Candy Apple, Chris Bell, bringing indie-focused tunes. LSFF Artistic Director Philip Ilson will also be spinning favourite vinyl across all ICA Lates, including a special emo set on Thursday with Emmeline Hartley, following Emo Tapes in the ICA cinema.
Whether you’re there to dance, network or unwind, ICA Lates offers the perfect after-hours extension to LSFF - where film culture meets late-night sound.
