Emily Dust - 03-Dec-21

A DJ, curator and broadcaster with an eye on global club trends and emerging sounds, Emily is a regular on the BBC, where she produced and hosted a documentary on South African gqom for the World Service and a documentary on Berlin's club culture for BBC Radio 4. With a knack for creating a strong narrative, Emily approaches her DJ sets in a similar fashion, expertly weaving through the threads that bring these disparate sounds together. Dancehall, Brazilian baile funk, Angolan kuduro and gqom are all in the mix, kept together with the bass-heavy sounds of her native UK.

It’s this considered ear that means she can play in so many settings and time slots, going back-to-back with Roska at Boomtown, playing the Tate Modern, a beach in Ghana, warming up for SOPHIE at Roskilde, playing in a car wash in Durban, an abandoned slaughterhouse in Belgrade and Uganda’s Nyege Nyege festival.
