Dekmantel Podcast 473 – Josey Rebelle Tracklist
Londoner Josey Rebelle is ‘just’ a DJ. She doesn’t make records, she plays them, but she plays them like no one else. Her impeccable taste and ability to join the dots between disparate genres in the club, on the radio and with the compilations she puts out has won her countless awards. She is known for drawing on her Caribbean roots as much as she is for the passion she pays with and the authenticity of her selections. Whether old or new, jungle or soul, a Josey Rebelle set is a thing of joy.
And she proves that for us this week with an almost two-hour mix that traverses a dizzying amount of terrain. It’s a club-focussed trip that fizzes with apocalyptic energy before taking off into worlds of cosmic techno, twitchy club music and supple jungle. The drama comes as much from the mixing as the tunes but one thing is for sure, there is no real way of knowing whether you’re listening to sounds from the past, present or future.
