Fitting innit that we send off 2021 and welcome 2022 with LiT MiX 029 from BootyBassDJs founder Ngaio— This powerhouse creative force catalyzed our ongoing music exchange with her Bristol-based crew, which has kept us dancing all year. She is a host on Swu.fm, has released music on Durkle Disco and Archway UK, works as an inclusion consultant, is musical director of Bristol’s Bass Choir, and currently producing a Netflix documentary. Go on then!

With voice bodacious and selections outrageous, Ngaio’s LiT MiX features her original vocals and productions amidst blends on blends  that just don’t stop ramping up the energy. Her signature sound is a refined ratchet romp through the global booty shaking underground, from UK bass music to Afro-Caribbean diasporic dancefloor detonators. This mix has everything from dancehall and soca, baile funk, UKG, dnb, afrobeats, moombahton, and all manner of genre-defying mashup bangers. HNY 2022!!!

Ngaio is a force to be reckoned with. More than just a singer, this powerhouse of a performer can switch from a killer DJ set to delivering intricate jazz harmonies with a voice that could have stepped out of the 1940s, to heart hitting spoken word.

Born in London, now a twenty years strong Bristolian, Ngaio has been skating across musical scene since she could walk. As well as being  musical director of Bristol’s Bass Choir. She has been organising and promoting events since setting up of her own night Booty Bass which was started in 2018 as a way to provide a platform for more female DJ’s.

It’s rare to find a performer with this many strings to their bow. Ngaio’s versatility as an artist has seen her moving audiences to standing ovations in St George’s Hall with a soul striking vocals, spark tears though truth laden lyrics, destroy dancefloors with selections old and new that take crowds on a journey of nostalgia and discovery and sometimes combine all three! Bringing jazz influenced vocals into the UK Funky world has seen her released on Bristol label Durkle Disco with a Cardinal Sound remix that reached clubs from Europe to Australia.

Previously seen at festivals such as Glastonbury, Boomtown, Secret Garden Party, Love Saves The Day, Tokyo World and guesting on Rinse FM, Flex FM, Noods Radio and soon to be station regular at SWU FM, 2019 isn’t likely to see her slowing down any time soon.

Electric performances that envelop the crowd, the vibe she provides stays long after she’s left.
