B.A.D.mix 018 – Tai Lokun

We’re back in the mix, coming in hot with an hour of pulsating, percussive sounds from Tai Lokun – just in time for her to join Gabrielle Kwarteng, OK Williams and our very own NIKS for a special stage takeover at Croatia’s Love International this year. Lock in!

How are things going for you recently?

Things are going very well. In a somewhat short amount of time, I have been able to cover a lot of ground, so to speak. I have had the opportunity to play around Europe and in Asia, start a party, play for amazing festivals and promoters that really believe in me and connect with some many on the dance floor. I feel pretty blessed and I am just happy to be given so many opportunities which have propelled me to  grow as a DJ so much faster. 

What have you been up to?

Recent highlights include Horst Festival and playing The Levels stage in Silver Hayes at Glastonbury, back to back with OK Williams. The energy at both sets was 10/10.

If you could go back in time, what musical era would you choose to experience? Why?

The 60s for sure. The decade was so rich – it had Motown, soul, funk, blues, The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding… the list goes on. It marks the birth of some of the most influential genres and artists. 

Tell us a bit about the mix.

This mix is percussive, rave and sexy. 

What’s your favourite track in the mix? How did you discover it?

Cavaricci (The Carry Nation Remix) by Redamce – I think I found it via Bandcamp. 

Finally, who else would you like to see in the series?

Byrell The Great
