Starting out their journey as a streetwear and art blog founded by Fred Conybeare and later joined by Freddy Masters who was working from Amsterdam at the time, Keep Hush came from humble beginnings. Running club nights under the Keep Hush name in both the UK and Holland, the pair finally decided to make the move to London in the hopes of creating events that would bring back the community feeling of record shops, and they did exactly that.

Utilising an office space that the pair were caretakers of at the time, they invited DJs down to record mixes for their blog which grew to host larger events in the space. This led to putting on an event in collaboration with White Peach Records with P Money, Flowdan, Irah, and Killa P, which led to them being kicked out of the building due to a lingering smell the next day. Luckily, Tom at Rye Wax would take them in, giving them a proper venue to host their events – and the rest is history.

Following this, Keep Hush has continued to host and promote underground dance music. From a collaborative EP with Nando’s and putting on events in Nando’s basements across London, Manchester, and Bristol, to the previously mentioned partnership with White Peach Records, as well as curating diverse lineups from P Money and Irah to LUCY and Sherelle, Fred and Freddy have been covering all genres of underground and dance music.
