Youth Lagoon ~ Interviewed on 2SER's Static

Tracklist + Q&A: https://bit.ly/3Ryt0Q4

Moving away from her early inspirations of Chicago house and disco, @manami-b is now dedicating her sound to the dark and murky depths of bass

"I haven’t put out a mix in a really long time, and this is the first mix under the rebranded sound. I’ve been playing bass-driven music for longer than I’ve been making it, but this is the first mix exclusively [dedicated] to it. It felt amazing; it was so fun to put together.

I wanted to execute a feeling of a loss of control, as if descending into an abyss-like place and being spat out the other side, using club music that explores the sub-realms. Musically, this mix truly represents where I'm at right now, particularly with my DJing."
