THIS IS, the UK’s biggest dance music curation brand, will publish live video footage of its THIS IS Dance 2016 album launch party headlined by SIGMA directly into the Spotify desktop app in real-time. What’s more, viewers will also be able to watch the event LIVE on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

For the first time ever, people will see real-time footage direct from THIS IS Dance 2016 in place of Spotify’s top ad banner between 8pm-midnight on 30th October. The launch party will be taking place at London’s 93 Feet East, featuring DJ sets from Sigma, David Zowie and rising star Secaina Hudson.

The simultaneous real-time action across the four digital platforms will be the first of its kind and has the potential to reach a real-time audience of more than 4 million UK music fans.
