Amy Becker
Still in her early twenties, Amy Becker has spent the last few years rocketing to acclaim in the crowded world of bass music in the UK
After being spotted by 1Xtra in her teens, she held down the longest-running residency ever on Mistajam’s show. Her natural propensity for radio has since seen her bag a monthly slot on Radar, as well as slots on NTS and Rinse. Mixes for FACT, Fabric and Thump have garnered serious props and for her appearances on Boiler Room, the London DJ has always turned the hype levels up to 11.
With her self-produced TRX zine and compilation, an EP featuring the likes of Sir Spiro and Scratcha DVA and the launch of her own Acrylic label, she’s proved herself to be one of the most on-it in the game.
For Crack Mix 162, she tears through genres at typically breakneck speed, throwing out select cuts from London’s drill and afrobeats scenes with frightening precision. Serious weight and an ear for more global flavours conjure the kind of raucous party she’s known to drive to frenzy.
Turn this one up.
