Against the backdrop of the global pandemic that radically altered her everyday reality and the Black Lives Matter movement that sharpened her focus on black equity and erasure in dance music, the much-loved London-born, Manchester-based producer and DJ launched OTMI. While this genre-spanning label will release music from friends and collaborators, its debut release came from Anz herself as 001 explored the processes of coming un-done and rebuilding. Hard relate. At the beginning of lockdown, the industrious talent set herself the target of making 40 tracks and by the summer she had channeled her closed club frustrations to amass 74 tracks to soundtrack these unprecedented times. Throughout it all, Anz has played her signature blend of bass, UK funky, breakbeats, ghetto tech and electro selections once a month on her NTS Manchester show. As she’s been a regular of the station for half of its life, who better to close its 10.10 Store Mix takeover? Just as Manchester International Festival (MIF) announced her as one of the acts for its Homecoming Live night, Anz – who spends so much of her time recording club mixes –  wanted to share something different. Here, she wants you to take it easy with 65 minutes of “stone cold classics”.

10.10 NTS 10 STORE MIX: ANZ

Nick León is part of a newer generation of Miami producers who infuse modern-day club music with sounds from around the region, everything from Miami bass to reggaeton. In León's case, his most recent—and most exciting—music has focused on beats inspired by reggaeton and its sub-genre perreo, but with a musical palette that speaks to a love of electronic music from Aphex Twin to Burial to music on labels like NAAFI and TraTraTrax. (This is a predilection he shares with DJ Python, whom León just launched a new party with.) 

It's on the latter label he released the Rompediscoteka EP, one of the canniest genre fusions he's done yet, meant to hark back to the feeling he had when he first discovered reggaeton. (It came with eye-opening remixes from Maral, Kelman Duran and Henzo, producers whose personal-but-global approach mirrors León's own.) He also head a head-turning EP on Future Times, which threw Miami-style electro into the mix, with an ambient touch.

Like his productions, the young Miami DJ's sets can range from slow and low to high and tight, and his RA Podcast captures León in peak-time mode. It's a Latin-spin on everything from techno to tech house to cool-kid club music, with selections from Nico, Simisea, Siete Catorce, Ricardo Villalobos and MM adding up to a vibrant and rhythmically restless hour that soars across genres and scenes.

Since the pandemic and the murder of George Floyd, there have been renewed efforts to shine a light on dance music's roots in Black communities. Still, there's a critical need for more Black-forefronted collectives and programmers—as well as more thoughtfully curated and balanced rosters of talent in clubs and festivals—to keep the origins of electronic music alive. 

In comes Brooklyn’s dweller festival, founded in 2019 by Discwoman's Frankie Decaiza Hutchinson, which aims to highlight exclusively Black talent from across the globe. This year’s edition featured a live RA Exchange with Nigerian-British selector OK Williams, who spoke to RA music critic Kiana Mickles about some of the deep-rooted inequities that continue to bar Black artists from contributing to the contemporary dance music landscape. They also discuss Williams’ ascent on the global stage—beginning from her Early Bird residency at NTS and full-fledged touring career post-pandemic—and her first forays into production. This is a lively discussion that includes questions from the audience. Listen to the episode in full.
