"Every opportunity to learn something new is what's going to grow your craft as an artist." The Toronto star talks discipline and gaining self-confidence as a producer.

Cindy Li, AKA Ciel, always seems to be one step ahead. The label head, DJ, producer and activist has a hard-won career that dance music producers dream of—when she's not playing underground institutions across the globe, maintaining radio residencies, planning her own parties or collaborating with her favourite artists, she's thinking about what's next. "I'm the type of person that I'll stay up trying to finish everything rather than going to bed knowing that I didn't finish everything on my list," she tells RA's Nyshka Chandran in this week's episode.

The Toronto resident is a conservatory-trained pianist who uses the discipline she learnt from a lifetime of lessons to balance DJing and production. "For me, it is challenging to juggle both because they use very different parts of my brain," she describes. A deep digger whose love for atmospheric textures and '90s grooves influences her fresh take on UKG, tech-house and jungle, Li has been putting out music since 2017. She has various EPs and singles under her name, plus several joint releases with the likes of Dan Only, D.Tiffany and Priori but says she didn't always have the confidence for a solo full-length.

"I never thought I could write an album," she admits. But after playing live for the first time at MUTEK Montréal in 2021, that changed, leading to the 2023 release of Homesick, her debut album. "Don't ever let fear influence your decision-making," she says, describing how that show pushed her to overcome lingering doubts in the studio.

Ian Martin - 7th June 2024

Who’s the worst kept secret of the 140 scene? Smart money is on dubstep’s most intrepid shaman journeyman, Leo Cap. 

A law unto himself, with Changer EP, Leo’s stepping up to be a true Bad Man. Six immaculately crafted deep system bangers that stand up to any producer on the planet, with unreal sonic clarity, EQ depth and percussive energy. 

Lead single Bad Man begins proceedings with a groove so gangsta it makes G Unit look like the Jonas Brothers, whereas Selfish offers 2025’s best screw face inducing synth line. Changer switches things up with a futuristic soundscape before the drop obnoxiously slaps you around the chops and fails to apologise. 

Feel the Vibe comes in as cold as the arctic circle with its hypnotic swing, before Play flips proceedings to a technical playground of shaman sorcery - with EP closer Perfect gradually building to a wall of dub influenced bass weight and reverb drenched rim clicks. 

Who’s the baddest of them all? Leo Cap’s the game Changer.

Winchester (formerly known as Wedge) returns with Liquid Crystal State, a striking 4-track EP that fuses the heavyweight pressure of his Bristol dubstep roots with the intricate sound design of his experimental solo work.

Inspired by the microscopic grids and labyrinthine circuits of LCD screens, the EP explores technological decay and perceptual distortion. Each track channels these hidden architectures—fragments of data, voltage, and interference—into raw, rhythmic forms. The results are physical, break driven, and industrial, yet laced with nuance and sculptural precision.

With a legacy of genre-defying collaborations (Dot Product with Raiden, Wrecked Lightship with Appleblim), Winchester continues to blur the lines between club energy and avant-garde abstraction. On Liquid Crystal State, jungle, footwork, dark dubstep, and UK bass influences collide in a sound that’s built for both movement and disorientation - inviting the listener to lose themselves inside the maze.
