I never thought of myself as a big techno music fan until I found myself listening to Yaeji and similar artists for over 10 hours straight at one point. It’s a genre that can fit almost any mood, whether you just want something playing in the background while doing hw, a good party playlist when dj’ing or when your existential crisis hits at 4am.
Yaeji is a producer, singer, rapper, DJ from Brooklyn who keeps everybody on the hook with her amazing evolution and style change on every new EP. Being bilingual she used that opportunity to write in both Korean and English, reaching a wide audience from her hometown city in South Korea and the US. Her voice is defiant even though she often sings in a whisper; her tone is melodic and angular. Her flow is like that of a rapper, she links together rhymes and keeps rhythm, but there’s also an energy lurking beneath her delivery that echoes classic, soaring house singers.
Here’s a lil interview to get a glimpse of her personality. I would definitely recommend checking her out especially if you’re not familiar with this genre! She’s rlly cool.
