Together, Counterspike and Beatport are rolling out a series of live events across the country, starting with Leeds. These events are designed to spotlight emerging DJs, independent collectives, and boundary-pushing artists who shape the underground music landscape. By supporting these grassroots gatherings, we’re not only nurturing creativity and connection within youth culture, but also making safety a key part of the experience. Counterspike will be on-site with SpikeStixx, providing festival-goers and party people with the tools and awareness to stay protected against drink spiking—so everyone can enjoy the music with peace of mind.
This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to community, creativity, and safety. Through workshops, pop-ups, and curated playlists, we’ll amplify the voices of tomorrow’s music innovators and help ensure the underground scene remains a space where young talent can express themselves freely, safely, and authentically.
