PLAYNICE CONFIDENTIAL 020 | SECRETSUNDAZE [UK]

Seeking passion? Pleasure? Possibility?

Introducing PLAYNICE Confidential — a consistent Saturday night shaped by shared chemistry, built around connection, creativity, and quality music. Intentional, playful, and quietly defiant. All are welcome.

This edition features SECRETSUNDAZE, a defining force in forward-thinking underground house music for over two decades. Embodying the spirit and community of London’s club culture, Secretsundaze spans parties and festivals, a record label, an NTS residency, a studio, and a live band project. Now led by producer, DJ, and curator James Priestley, it continues to evolve while remaining rooted in a deep love for underground music.

James Priestley’s journey began as a drum & bass DJ and promoter of underground warehouse parties before becoming a resident at Robert Johnson and performing at institutions including Panorama Bar and Smart Bar. In 2022, Secretsundaze expanded further with the Spirit Of Sundaze Ensemble, a live band reimagining cult dancefloor classics, with performances at Southbank Centre, ICA, Beat Hotel, and Kala Festival. This balance between the cutting-edge and the timeless remains at the heart of Secretsundaze — a project that continues to explore new musical territory through parties, productions, radio, live performance, and its record label while remaining an enduring pillar of London’s underground music community.

We pay our respects to the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, and acknowledge their custodianship of these lands and waters; their culture and language; and their elders — past, present, and emerging. We invite Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people in our community to this event, if they wish to come free of charge. There are an allocated amount of tickets, so please email playniceconfidential@gmail.com for enquiries.
