Join us on 16 October 2025 at Snapes Printers, Preston from 5 PM to 9 PM for an immersive evening of sight, sound, and story — free entry, BYOB.
This is the launch party for RAZE’s new EP “Reflections,” released on Preston’s underground imprint Utopian Mechanics. The EP—a five-track journey into “post-apocalyptic electronica / dystopian dub”—is an atmospheric, retrospective work rooted in Raze’s years of studio experimentation, manipulations of found sound, and dub-influenced composition.
On the night you’ll get to:
View photographs in the “Reflections” exhibition, including pieces that have informed the EP’s visual and emotional aesthetic
Experience a DJ sets from RAZE, Daydream and Temporary Bodies, weaving ambient, experimental, dub, techno, and more
Discover limited edition zines and record releases (including 12" vinyl) from Utopian Mechanics
Immerse yourself in a community of artists, sonic explorers, and local creative energy
Utopian Mechanics, founded in 2021 by Preston-underground stalwart Mike Warburton, champions bold, unconventional electronic music from the North West—work that might otherwise remain unsigned or unseen.
Whether you're here for the visuals, the beats, or the conversation, expect to leave with more than you arrived with.
Also check out other Exhibitions in Preston.
