Crystallmess(FR)
Paris-based Crystallmess isn't just a subversive DJ and skilled producer, she's also an accomplished writer, who's charted the history of Afro-French dance trends, and a celebrated mixed-media artist. Criss-crossing influences from her French Caribbean and African ancestry and a long-held obsession with club music, she approaches her sets with skill, nuance and literacy, and is as likely to drop tracks from US rap innovators like Clipse or Chief Keef as she is cuts from rave futurists Nkisi and Chrisman.
