Directed by Daisy Gaston
In a three part series for Resident Advisor, director Daisy Gaston spotlights three leading Black, British figures in UK electronic music.
One of UK electronic music’s breakthrough stars of late, SHERELLE has become much more than one of the finest DJs, and more recently producers, of high-energy dance music. She has become one of the most prominent voices advocating for a more equitable dance music industry. One minute she will be setting the record straight on Twitter, the next speaking truths on national radio or television. Her label and initiative BEAUTIFUL, exists to cultivate new music and scenes within the Black and LGBTQI+ music community. As a DJ, SHERELLE is becoming world-renowned for sets of breakneck jungle, footwork and beyond, putting her own, fresh spin on the UK’s rich heritage of bass culture. In this episode of Connecting The Dots, Daisy follows SHERELLE around some of London’s key dance music spaces—Reprezent Radio, Colour Factory—hearing about the real-time legacy building that’s happening around a new icon of UK electronic music.
