About us
Crux started life in 2014 as a way of having somewhere for the underground party scene (and its various creative practitioners) to have a mid-week meet-up. Different independent grassroots music venues across London were used to create a space where you can meet likeminded people, learn about audiovisual production and be entertained. This is achieved through regular audiovisual performing arts events, jam sessions and workshops in London and the UK.
After some years this split into separate events for the performance showcase and the jam sessions. All events are mostly run on an open-access basis and serves as a platform for both emerging artists and more established faces to experiment. To celebrate ten years of smaller events, the first ever Crux Festival took place in 2024 as a co-production with Rich Mix in Shoreditch and with project funding from Arts Council England.
Crux was started by several music production teachers and performers of electronic music. Our team today continues to be comprised of people who are active practitioners and we are committed to staging high-quality accessible events for all to enjoy.
