- Zagreb-based electro producer & DJ, Ivna Ji “Waiting Times” off S/T lathe cut 7″ single on brokntoys

Killer groovy electro-rap bomb from East Coast mastermind with old-school throbbing 808 beats to ignite treacherous bass line oscillations to slam nefariously around attitude-inducing rapping voice samples and sinister synth swathes to formulate a future classic electro inspired by West Coast G Funk & Robotech electronics breaking dancefloor rhythms. A pretty exciting, soulful, and rocking EP.
- Argentinian industrial /electro /EBM /noise /techno producer from Buenos Aires, DISOCIACION – “Safe Word” from V/A “NEIN” [RAWQTRVA02] charity compilation on Bogotá’s Raw Quarter.
Buenos Aires producer instigates mechanical monotonous beats to sputter along droning hypnotic, scratching abrasive textures tainted with neurotic obsessions and swirling synth strain’s unidentified dimensions, as eerie submerged female wanderings induce trance-like auras found lost in subconscious hallucinations.
Part of an eclectic fundraising compilation curated by Colombian Raw Quarter A&R, with the aim of strengthening the bond of unity between different female producers in Latin America to make a stand against Female Violence.
