Strictly Discs

Double vinyl LP pressing. It's with this genre-bending approach that Jessy Lanza presents her entry for the DJ-Kicks series - a sprawling, club-indebted odyssey that draws you in closer and closer with each listen. Recorded this summer, the mix is an incisive snapshot of her emotional landscape during the past 18 months. In 2020, with nothing but a van, a few personal belongings and her musical gear, Lanza and her partner relocated from New York City to the Bay Area to ride out the pandemic. A change of scenery, buoyed by the slower pace of their new home, gave her a fresh perspective during a worldwide screeching halt. Surrounded by Silicon Valley and the cult of wellness, Lanza drew inspiration from the synthetic grips of uncanny valley to create a striking cover that speaks to our curious times. Lanza has made a name for herself. "Making DJ-Kicks personal to me was important, like putting my vocals overtop and doing all the FX processing," she says. "Getting my voice in there helped make the mix feel finished."
