How Does It Feel to Be Loved? (often abbreviated to HDIF) is a London-based nightclub which predominately plays indie pop, Northern Soul and Motown music. On the club's (website ), founder Ian Watson explains: "We love pop, we love guitars that jangle, we love foot stomping melodies and huge choruses." The club's name is taken from the lyrics to The Velvet Underground song "Beginning to See the Light". ==History== Watson, a former ''Melody Maker'' journalist, began the night in April 2002 at the Buffalo Bar in Islington. HDIF takes place on the third Friday of the month at the Shacklewell Arms in Dalston. It also hosts one-off nights at the Canterbury Arms in Brixton, which take place on the first Friday of the month. It is "Brixton's longest running indie club night". 〔http://www.brixtonbuzz.com/2013/11/brixton-club-review-how-does-it-feel-to-be-loved-celebrates-10-years-at-the-canterbury-arms-1st-november/〕 Over the years, HDIF has taken place in a variety of venues in the capital, including The Phoenix on Cavendish Square, the 100 Club on Oxford Street, The Windmill and Jamm in Brixton, The Grosvenor in Stockwell, Nambucca in Archway, and the Montague Arms in Peckham.
