Crack Mix 433:
Kikelomo

House Jungle Breakbeats Drum 'n' bass

Kikelomo’s Crack Mix features a charged up fusion of genres, alongside a slew of unreleased gems too.

Now residing in Berlin, the Nigerian powerhouse started DJing in 2017. She’s since become an international name, holding down sets at Splash Festival in Germany, or in Seoul and Tokyo. Like her travels, Kikelomo’s sets draw from a combination of global sounds – from the raw energy of grime to UKG, jungle, footwork, Jersey club and amapiano.

Aside from DJing, Kikelomo is involved in wider range of industry initiatives too, mentoring women, non-binary and trans folk through her work with the collective No Shade. Her most recent venture is Oroko, a community-focused radio station based in Accra, Ghana, whose mission is to amplify African and diasporic voices.

On her Crack Mix, Kikelomo describes it as “one of my more moodier mixes”, in part due to the winter season. “Expect a lot of percussive sounds influenced by my time in Ghana and the music I heard in Accra,” she says, “mixed in with a generous splash of house and breakbeats. I’m incapable of not playing jungle and drum’n’bass, so, as always, there is a cheeky switch up towards the end.”
