At Kraków's Unsound festival, the London-based ambassador of footwork and jungle opens up about recent musings about legacy and the art of letting go. 

Since her first Boiler Room set went viral (so viral, she claims, it broke her phone), SHERELLE's career has ascended with a rapidness that even she struggles to fully comprehend. Almost instantly, she went from working a day job at Mixmag to DJing major festivals around the world, where she spread the word of 160 BPM music. Today, the London artist has an NTS residency with long-time friend and partner Naina, has two EPs under her belt and is at the helm of two labels–Hoover Sound and Beautiful, as well as the show SHERELLE presents on BBC 6 Music from 11PM on Saturday nights. This year, she even planned to take her reputation as a producer to the next level with a debut album that was scheduled for release in 2023.

But this summer, every musician's worst nightmare happened to SHERELLE. After a mugging in Europe, she lost every bit of her music—her DJ repertoire, her unreleased tracks and perhaps most devastatingly, her entire debut album. Discussing this at Kraków's Unsound festival, however, SHERELLE is chipper and refreshingly wise. In this intimate and hilarious conversation with RA's in-house critic, Kiana Mickles, she describes the incident as a launchpad for recent musings about the art of letting go, the importance of archiving and how she's approaching her debut album differently the second time around.

Ce mois-ci, Idris invite Jeune Gaou, DJ parisien et membre du collectif Couvre x Chefs, pour une heure entre club music hybride, héritages afro-diasporiques et basses lourdes. Influencé par la booty bass nord-américaine et le hardcore continuum britannique, il connecte les scènes locales du monde entier à travers des sets aussi érudits qu’explosifs.

It's certainly one of my best recorded mixes. There were no imperatives, no obligations, no need to do this one. Just two afternoons, one to dig and one to record.

This mix transcribes my influences and my musical universe with enthusiasm. With lots of new tracks this time. 125 to 140 bpm.

Thanks to everyone who sent me their music. Uk Funky, Percussive club, Dub, Techno, Hardgroove & UK Garage.

I promise you it was a fashionable haircut in the 90's.

Este proyecto reúne 10 pistas inéditas, creadas en diferentes etapas y nunca publicadas oficialmente. Una colección que recorre sonidos entre el tech house, el deep tech y el latin tech, mostrando distintas facetas de mi proceso creativo durante los últimos años.

Estas piezas quedaron fuera de mis lanzamientos oficiales, pero forman parte de la historia que me llevó hasta donde estoy ahora. Con este compilado cierro un ciclo y dejo atrás esta etapa sonora para centrarme en un nuevo camino, con un enfoque más definido y una visión renovada sobre mi música.

Un punto final antes del próximo comienzo.
