Free Flow <3 Melodic Melancholic Electronic
Sickla industriväg 6, 131 54 Nacka, Sweden— With Frederic (Lrt/Jenkins)
From deep introspective tunes to hysteric beats, but always very melodic, definitely electronic, and a bit melancholic. Sometimes taking the shape of an emotional roller-coaster with some of my favorite tracks I’ve been listening to again and again in the last years.
We will start by contemplative and soothing down-tempo tunes, move on towards more dance floor deep techno tracks, before closing the loop with introspective beats and melodies.
— Key points of Free Flow:
– Sober. Get high on life instead.
– Dance. Challenge your movements.
– Safe. Respect each others space and integrity this is our family ♥(No Photos or videos on the dancefloor, to let people flow without worries)
What’s Free Flow?
A weekly dance practice where all are students and all are teachers. Rather than learning steps, we develop our own rhythms and techniques to connect with and express ourselves.Enter a safe and judgement free environment where, moving from a place of kindness and compassion, the only other boundaries are the ones you choose for yourself.
Come to connect, come to let out pent-up stress or emotions, or come to just be and let the music flow through.
Each session will follow a musical theme, and we welcome you to interpret that in any way, be it through movement, dress or attitude.
Free Flow is not for profit and donation-based. All proceeds go to the Node, and we encourage you to contribute to the community’s self-sustainability by donating monthly at http://syntheistnode.se/
or by SWISH 123 023 10 68.We look forward to flowing with you!

Debaser Hornstulls Strand, Hornstulls strand, Stockholm, SwedenWOLF ALICE [UK]
Support: Albert af EkenstamIn recent years, few bands have been felt as self-evident as Wolf Alice. With its mix of guitar-grunge and indie pop, the band has been a much needed energy player from an early sleepy music market. Wolf Alice has just released their second studio album – Visions of a Life – whose so far released singles testify to a band that has something really going on. Now Wolf Alice returns to Stockholm for a debut at Debaser Strand January 20th.

International Hug Day: Hug celebration!
Klarabergsgatan, 111 57 Stockholm, SwedenINFORMATION:
Welcome to the big hug party in Stockholm to celebrate the international hugs day on January 21 in the very best flashmob style. Perhaps we can beat the world record in Group Hugging that is on 10554 hugs? But most importantly, it is clear that we meet and give each other plenty of warm, loving, hopeful and respectful hugs!* This is a so-called “flashmob”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashmob
* For a little inspiration look here:
https://youtu.be/44tmIiInBwgWHEN?
January 21 at 14:00 (please feel free before)
WHERE?
Sergelstorg
HOW?
Because it is a “spontaneous flashmob” with no arrangement, it will also be spontaneous and a bit messy. At 14:00 a small group of people will be in the middle of the square and start hugging. Immediately after that, everyone is welcome to “stream to” and continue the call. More info closer to the event!
Try on Roller Derby
Farstaängsvägen 3, 123 46 Farsta, SwedenTry on / open skate session on roller skates in Farstahallen! They will be able to lend out some gear. Event is open for everyone, including those that don’t identify themselves with women’s flat track roller derby.
