Newcastle DJ and producer Meg Ward is next up in our Magnetic Mix series. She has a residency at Newcastle upon Tyne’s underground event “ILL Behaviour” (or did when there were events) and has released on Midnight People, clipp.art and most recently a two EP Lookin For Fame for Monki’s &Friends.
Spanning garage, disco, 80s-infleunced synth-pop, house and a touch of acid, her productions deliver on a little something new each time. She takes that into her mix with a range of house, lo-fi electronic and a bit of an old school flavor.
“This mix is a chilled out vibe that I've tried to interpret from the smaller venues I've started to play in,” explains Ward. “I tried to keep things interesting with a mix between lo-fi house, Chicago vibes and delving into the darker sides of tech. I definitely wanted to focus a lot on talking, old skool vocals and funky basslines in this mix.”
