In this episode of In Conversation With, I sit down with Mike Dixon, the founder of Flow, one of the most exciting underground electronic music events in the North East based in Gateshead.
We dive into:
- The roots of Flow and how the idea came to life.
- Mike’s mission to create a deeper, more intentional music space for melodic techno, progressive house, and underground sounds.
- The importance of community, connection, and vibe over hype.
- Where Flow is heading in 2025, including a summer party at Hidden Heights Creative Studio and a growing lineup of carefully curated nights that celebrate quality over quantity.
If you're into intimate gatherings of like minded people, proper atmospheric music and musical journeys that move you – this one’s for you.
