So many of our favourite artists have used SoundCloud as a platform to get their music noticed – every Sunday we’ll be spotlighting the beat makers, mixers and dizzying melody masterminds who are tearing it up on the streaming service.
Sometime’s we enjoy the simpler things in life. Like a pair of Nike Air Force 1’s or spinning old vinyl, there are some comforts that can’t be beaten. However, when tradition is shaken, stirred and shook up completely we’re always for it.
Describing herself as a “a collage of hyperactive beats, grimy basslines and Afropunk-infused electronica” and “troppo chilli flakes.” CLYPSO’s unique take on danceable grooves are currently taking the Sydney scene on a one wild ride.
Mixing jungle beats, a grime-fueled baselines and hypnotic vocals, CLYPSO has seen spots on Rare Finds, BEAMS Festivals, Waywards and the Princess Nokia tribute afterparty. Listen to the track ‘YOLO’ below.
Getting her start sequencing on her electronic organ, selling synth riffs to MCs online and programming demos for bands, ‘YOLO’ features an explosion of tribal beats, kettle drums, maracas, synth riffs and vocal yelps that come together to create a totally magnetic and danceable banger.
CLYPSO is playing VOLUMES 2017 on August 19. You can find all the event details here.
