"Good underground music is coming back and we need places to enjoy it."
Eliza Rose is a DJ and producer. Being relatively new to the scene, you might not recognize his name, but you will know his song B.O.T.A (Baddest Of Them All) which topped the UK Top 40.
Since the lockdown, Eliza says her appetite for dancing is back, but she's worried about venues closing.
" I wish we were more like Berlin," she told Radio 1 Newsbeat.
Last year clubs in Berlin were reclassified from entertainment sites to "cultural sites" in order to protect them. They now rank alongside places like museums and theaters.
"That's really how it should be," Eliza adds.
"Unfortunately we live in a country that doesn't necessarily respect the arts, but all we can do is keep pushing and hope that things change."
