Emika brings a fresh style to the ever-evolving world of electronic music, mixing her signature dark textures with beats and vocals, her last two albums Dva [2013, Ninja Tune] and Emika [2011, Ninja Tune] have proven that.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">She describes herself as “making pop, but with a hard edge, playing different sounds and intensities against each other. I try to stay on the fence, leaving from for the listener to create a sense of what its about. It’s all about tension for me.”</span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Having lived through the formative years of the recent global explosion in bass music coming out of Bristol, she now lives in Berlin.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Her next soon to be announced new album will mark the second collaboration between her and Bomb Squad sonic architect Hank Shocklee, who is this time on mixing duties.</span><br /> <br /> Both of Emika’s brooding LPs for Ninja Tune have bowled us over, so we thought we would share her mix for EB Radio 2013. Across thirteen tracks, the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofC1r7fIWh0" target="_blank">Marcel Dettmann collaborator</a> calls upon the two clubs cultures which have shaped her sound the most: Bristol’s dubstep scene and Berlin’s house and techno wonderland. At times melancholic or melodic, her set gracefully darts between classic dubstep, contemporary house, and the mutant strains of said genres. Plus, there’s some charming surprises from the likes of Ennio Morricone, as well as a few unreleased tunes from Emika herself. And once you’ve sampled her DJ chops you will want more.<br /> <br />  Check it out..  Look out for Emika’s DJ dates in anticipation of the forthcoming release.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 25px;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 25px;"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <strong><span style="color: #f1c232; font-family: inherit;">Tracklist:</span></strong></div> </div> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 25px;"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Ennio Morricone — “Veruschka“ (sample) [Easy Tempo]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">B RIDDIM — “Dropping Your Soul” [Third Ear Recordings]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Reel By Real – “Karma EP”  [A.R.T.LESS 2190]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Hakim Murphy — “ES1” [Philpot Records]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">DVS1 — “Black Russian” [Klockworks]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Ability II — “Pressure Dub” [Outer Rhythm]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Pangea — “Router” [Hessle Audio]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Emika — “Melancholia Euphoria A”</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Pinch — “Obsession (The Possession)” [Tectonic Recordings]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Flex — “Black Terra (Original)” [Hidden Recordings]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Emika — “Melancholia Euphoria B”</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Addison Groove & Sam Binga — “Rzor” [50 Weapons]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;">Tevo Howard — “The Glass Ceiling (Full Edit)” [Hour House Is Your Rush Records] / “Chrysta Bell — The Truth Is” [La Rose Noire]</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div> </div> </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><iframe frameborder="no" height="450" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/166015636&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true" width="100%"></iframe></span></div> </div>
