Hey everyone!

The June Newsletter is finally here! 🙂 Where to start…

Hannah and I are doing a joint birthday stream on Saturday, 28th June at 7PM CET! > https://www.twitch.tv/lauradre

We’ll be playing Gartic Phone, Jackbox, Operator 112 and doing what any well-behaved women with a glass of wine would do. 😂
Join in, draw nonsense, vote for me (or whoever cracks you up), or just watch the spectacle with a drink in hand! 😆
Mark your calendars. bring snacks, bring booze! My actual birthday is on the 27th, but obviously I will be busy that day. 😁

To celebrate, I’m also running a rare 1-week birthday sale on all non print-on-demand merch – that means: vinyls, CDs, MiniDiscs, cassettes, USBs, journals… you name it. 😎

Sale runs from Friday, 27 June to Friday, 4 July

No discount code needed – prices update automatically.

🎁 Special Birthday Bonus:

Every physical music item ordered during the sale will come signed by me – no extra charge.

What I’ve been up to lately…

So… I kind of tore my studio apart. 😂
Fresh paint, new layout, acoustic treatment, better lighting – the full reset.
Switched up the aesthetic too: walnut desk, plants, acoustic panels – back to nature, basically.

Studio before:

Studio afer:

I also upgraded to a new Mac Studio M4 and finally got myself a Balolo Cockpit desk setup. It’s more spacious, less chaotic, and weirdly, it’s cleared my head too – which kicked off this whole decluttering mission. Flat, studio, digital files… all getting sorted.

All of this is in time for something new: Moving Spaces III is officially in the works. Still early days, but the vibe’s forming.
There’s already one new track nearly ready, might be dropping that in the next couple of months… 👀

Other than that, I went on holidays to Portugal. It was good 😎 – sun, warmth, and… somehow still full of English breakfasts, pubs, and British voices everywhere 😂 …like I’ve never left the UK!
But still, it was a good reset.

Hope you’re all doing good out there. Can’t wait to hang with you on the 28th! 🍻🥳

Laura
