TYGAPAW (NY/JA)
https://soundcloud.com/tygapaw
Dion Mckenzie known as TYGAPAW, is a one-person army on a mission to highlight inclusivity and displacement through sound. Originally from Mandeville, Jamaica, and based in Brooklyn, New York, TYGAPAW is a polymathic artist injecting their Jamaican heritage into techno. Operating at the intersections of their musical and cultural roots, TYGAPAW infuses the raw energy of dancehall with their signature emotional club sound. The self-taught producer founded monthly club nights Shottas, No Badmind and Fake Accent, creating platforms and spaces for QTIPOC. Fake Accent also functions as TYGAPAW's own imprint, which aims to platform and centre black electronic music artists.

Aquenta is a crip DJ living and playing in Eora. Her sound is a genre-bending mix of afro-diasporic vibes and other surprises thrown in for good measure. Aquenta always draws on her Afro-Caribbean heritage when crafting her sets, and then spices things up by adding her other favourite flavours. Expect dancehall, grime, global club, ballroom edits and everything in between. The result has been described perfectly by her bro as akin to a Warhead lolly: sometimes sweet, sometimes sour, intense and not easily forgotten.
