Jaymie Silk

Sobre

Jaymie Silk doesn’t make straight up-and-down techno or house music. The Paris-based producer and DJ draws from a range of influences informed by his Afro-European heritage, his teen years as a rap producer and a subsequent move to Montreal, where he fell into the city’s ballroom scene. The result is truly original music that’s as richly varied as his path. Whether he’s incorporating African rhythms into house and techno arrangements, turning out fierce club edits of pop tracks, or serving sexually and/or politically charged bangers, the results are always unpredictable but never less than compelling. Having released on labels such as !K7, Nervous Records, Shall Not Fade and Sous Music, and played at venues and parties including Cabaret Sauvage, T7, He.She.They and Piknic Électronik, Silk’s DJ sets are as thrilling and memorable as his productions; the work of a renegade groove master.
