Melbourne-based artist Allysha Joy is a key player of the local contemporary Jazz and Hip Hop scene and records with the collective 30/70 as well as solo. This Friday, she releases her sophomore record "Torn: Tonic". In our interview, she tells us about her relationship to Jazz, personal growth, and facing the struggles of working in the male-dominated music industry.
The Austrian-Nigerian artist UCHE YARA describes herself as “a post-club visionary”. A bold announcement held up by her debut album “BODYSCANNER”. Confident, honest and radical in root and execution, the self-produced record shines through a multi-facetted club sound that demands to be experienced. Svenja Isabel Hudson spoke with the artist about how the album came to be, how queer Berlin club culture inspired it and challenged her at the same time to question what connection really means.
