Mar 22, 2019A whirlwind but very well-paced tour of trends and tendencies across a plethora of genres, subgenres, rhythms and textures, and nothing that we hear last longer than three minutes before morphing into something else.
-
Mar 22, 2019Through this combination of the ethereal and the eccentric, Halo has curated a mix that twists neatly around her musical influences whilst lending an intimate sense of her own direction as a producer and DJ. It is a seamless collection rooted firmly in the contemporary which hints at a musician in complete artistic control.

Mar 22, 2019Halo expertly shuffles musical microclimates like a card shark elbow greasing a three card molly hustle.

Mar 22, 2019For all its appeal, DJ-Kicks isn't necessarily Halo's most striking mix. Her 2017 Boiler Room, which incorporated UK funky, grime-adjacent tracks, Príncipe anthems and Whitney Houston, felt slightly fresher, more expressive. But DJ-Kicks is still a success, a standout club mix that reflects the individual streak that runs through Halo's work.

Mar 25, 2019Body music for heady dancers, this is a triumph of dance music at its trippiest, and in its controlled weirdness lies real liberation.
