Magda is an artist who can never be pinned down, no matter the timeframe or time signature. Any one of the Detroit-raisedartist’s DJ sets or productions

Magda is an artist who can never be pinned down, no matter the timeframe or time signature. Any one of the Detroit-raisedartist’s DJ sets or productions
breeds a rare feel of mystique and discovery. “I’m really obsessed with finding a line betweenthings - between sounds and between genres. My
influences come from a life spent in very different environments, whichplays a huge role in the way I connect with music.”
Dramatic sounds and eccentric basslines carry her multilayered sound, which veers everywhere from funked-out space discoto the intricately-
programmed, metallic feel of Detroit to stripped down techno, all the way to Italian horror film soundtracks.The only thing that remains consistent is the
element of surprise.
Her accidental entry into Detroit’s underground party scene as a teenager was the kick-start she needed for a lifelong loveaffair. Soon all became a blur
of “cities, record stores, and parties.” In 1998, she joined Minus and began touring the worldas Richie Hawtin’s sole opener. From there, her distinctive
sound began to develop and the rest is history.
Stylistically, Magda grooves through opposition - creating sets that are emotion-led yet clinical, having profound expertisewith analog and digital
technology. Her sound is otherworldly but visceral; dark with a warm sense of beauty and grace;sparse yet wondrously full-bodied with density and
bass-swathed extremes. « hide |
