In the new episode of Lost and Sound, we go over to Brooklyn to chat with DJ, producer and multi media artist Tygapaw.
I love the ferocious, eclectic energy of her mixes. She talks about growing up in Jamaica, going to dancehall seshuns whilst also listening to Nirvana and how she grew in confidence as a DJ in New York and setting up the club night and label, Fake Accent to raise the visibility of black queer artists in New York.
Recently she made the EP, An Ode To Black Trans Lives, in one day during the height of the recent protests. A lot of ground gets covered, I loved chatting with Tygapaw and I hope you enjoy listening.
