“In her essay for Dazed, BAMBII reflects on her experiences navigating a stratified electronic music scene, highlighting the challenges she faced as a Black woman in a male-dominated industry.
She calls out the gender disparities and cultural appropriation in genres like techno and EDM, advocating for a queering of electronic music that embraces fluidity and creativity.
After mourning the loss of venues during the pandemic, she emphasises the urgent need for the industry to evolve and focus on genuine innovation rather than clinging to outdated hierarchies and inequities. You can catch her set for Mixmag and listen to her on Soundcloud or Spotify.
