About Blond:ish: 
Engendering positivity on the dancefloor means creating and sharing uplifting underground music defined by the spirit rousing principles of esotericism. Underpinned by a natural heartbeat born of real instrumentation, the rhythmic spell BLOND:ISH weaves is designed to heighten your senses, and open your heart. 

Raving the right way also necessitates doing what's right by nature. And doing what's right by nature means connecting with Bye Bye Plastic, a fully coordinated movement launched by BLOND:ISH in 2018, aimed at persuading party hubs across the planet to quit using single-use plastics.

Together, these core values represent the central pillars on which the BLOND:ISH mantra is raised. We're talking about a pledge to promote positive house and techno music, using fun, and oftentimes supernatural frequencies to excite and awaken ravers who care enough to dance and also care enough to think. Pitched alongside a declaration to replace single-use plastic products with more sustainable alternatives, the BLOND:ISH mission is as beautiful as it is potent.
