As a new DJ, I’m really enjoying leaning into the ‘play’ of this medium and for my first lovergirl tapes, I did just that. This show is a blend of different genres -  dance/electronic, amapiano, R&B and drum&bass - essentially a collection of upbeat music I’m currently listening to. I really tried to create a chill mix to accompany the transition into winter but, that didn’t happen. Enjoy!

SUGAR RUSH [03.01.24]

Excerpt from 'The Beating Hearts'

It is 2035 in London. The government’s assisted desensitisation policy has seen swathes of people lose touch with their ability to feel in order to survive austerity.  The Beating Hearts are an emerging political party of young queer activists who are hungry for a new world and not afraid to fight for it.

Cadence Clarke is a 19 year old, curious but untrusting university student whose years in and out of foster care has caused her to fiercely guard herself, but when a run-in at a campus demonstration  causes an unlikely romance with a budding care technologist, Sage Thomas, 21, the two are forced to choose between the lives they’ve come to know  or  getting swept up in the undercurrents of change. Though Cadence wants to stay in the comfort of their cocoon, Sage’s involvement in The Beating Hearts  is too alluring to pass up.  With the elections getting closer and tensions rising both nationally and within the party,  will Cadence pull away or open herself up to love? 

This queer sci-fi coming-of-age story chronicles two young women’s relationship as they carve out a life for themselves at a time when society would rather they remain in their place. It explores what it means to be a young person coming into their politics in a polarised society, made more complicated by how structural inequalities impact our interpersonal relationships.


Featuring:

IN SYNC [AUDIOFICTION]

My first mix, bear with me.
It's mostly instrumentals and r&b for the casual love-y vibe- the kind of stuff you can leave on in the background.
