OUR PROJECTS
Projects
We are all about connecting grassroots artists with the music industry in a way that feels real and authentic. With the initiatives below, we’re building an Acid Rain community that’s ready to shake things up—challenging the industry’s status quo, telling the stories that haven’t been heard, and giving the underground music scene the spotlight it deserves.
​
We want to bring together musicians, photographers, videographers, writers, and all kinds of creatives—because the best art comes from collaboration and passion. This is where music’s roots grow strong, and we’re here to support that.
​
It’s not about how many followers you’ve got or your streaming numbers—if your art speaks for itself, we want to hear it and help you share it with the world!​

INTO THE RAVE
We're throwing it back to the iconic 90s rave scene—think Hitman & Her and BPM—but with a fresh, modern twist.
​
Get ready for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the hottest raves and underground parties across the UK. With press access to the biggest nights, we'll take you inside the heart of the rave, giving you the energy, the music, and the madness as it unfolds.
REVOLUTIONISING EPKS
We’re reimagining the traditional EPK because we believe artists deserve more than just a plain PDF with basic information. Instead, we’re creating dynamic, mini-zines that showcase you and your music in an engaging and interactive format. Think of it as a personalised digital experience, complete with embedded videos, interviews, professional photos, reviews, and more—all seamlessly brought together.
