Singer/songwriter 

Upcoming album: 

“DaRe To ThInK NeW ThInGS”


What this album means to me:


Imagery of moving through fear / combatting your fear as a means of changing - then resulting in new thoughts and new choices, new reality’s. Shifting your identity and not letting old stories trap you into thinking you will always be the same.

I want it to become an acronym for / synonymous to theme or word of change. For you to be like to your mate “dare to think new things” to inspire change ,  to recycle , to use daily, to remind ourselves of how important and powerful change can be.

To me it means stepping into new territory; letting go of what no longer served me anhmore, wiring my brain different. Knowing that I’m more than capable of it. Even within the darkness. Knowing the light will come again, knowing the dark will teach me. Giving myself a chance at change. Deciding this for myself,and realising this CHOICE in change. CONSCIOUS LIVIN. It means inspiration to me. New scenes, new feelings, new emotions. New input !! Making peace with fear and uncertainty. “Dare” alluding do bravery within self growth and transformation. Daring to jump into the big unknown. Like a butterfly in a cacoon - letting the world see ma beautiful colours. Not shying away from my potienial. To me, the name of this album also reflects the significance of thinking and one’s mind ones life. The importantnce of emptying your cup and re filling it from time to time with NEW things. New thoughts . NEW TINGS. Taking a chance on yourself, trusting yourself. To me, this album name means a new life (if you want it). A life of freedom. Of transformation. 

Personally I think its so relevant and needed in our society. Especially now. This awareness is so significant to achieve the things we want and to shine in the ways we are all supposed to. All with our different magic.

The songs that I include in this album, I feel follow and replicate my own experience through hardship and loss, forgetting and remembering myself again and again, and each time having more love for myself and more peace by my side. Through out the album I portray intimate experience of what’s important to me, but also the things that at times struggle to set free from my being; and again reinstating this desire to release old baggage out of my boat, to be lighter, freer, free from past wounds, hurts. To float on the sea and not sink. Which will perhaps inspire my next album, which creates this imagery of “daring to float”.

Between pulse and spirit, limi finds the edges of sound — bass as language, rhythm as resistance. Her sets unfold like rituals: percussive, fluid, ungoverned. Rooted in the underground yet reaching beyond it, she crafts moments anchored in punk energy and diasporic pulse.

With a decade behind the decks, she’s carved a space between heavy bass pressure and cathartic emotional release, moving through 140, left-field techno, and visceral percussive experiments blurring genre and gravity.
