She doesn’t mix so much as recompose.

Featuring:

  • DJ Marcelle

Presented by Liquid Architecture, Absorb and Hope St Radio.

For her first time in Australia, DJ Marcelle sits down with writer, musician and curator Anuraag to discuss her unique approach to DJing, her decades-deep love of vinyl, and how far the form can be pushed before it breaks—or mutates into something refreshingly new.

Well known for her three-turntable setup, she doesn’t mix so much as recompose, wrenching disparate elements into an improvised logic all her own: post-punk abstraction collides with African polyrhythms, dub sensibilities warp against serrated electronics, and absurdist humour punctures deep sonic seriousness. At 63, she remains one of the most radical selectors working today, turning dance floors into unpredictable, ecstatic laboratories.

Join us with Anuraag to learn more about DJ Marcelle’s practice, process, and the philosophy behind her unpredictable sound worlds.
