DGTL ADE: GOU TALK BY PEGGY GOU – OCTOBER 20 – GET YOUR TICKETS
After years of shows at internationally renowned clubs and festivals like Glastonbury, DC10, Fabric, Panorama Bar, Primavera, Dour, Pukkelpop, and Sonar (alongside several Boiler Room appearances from Seoul to South London), 2023 has seen MOBO award-nominated producer and DJ Anz digging deeper, smiling wider, and pushing the envelope even further than before. Informed by a deep musicality and masterful technicality, she continues to refine her high-energy mixing style, proudly tracing the tracks between the UK’s rich heritage in rave and beyond.
Techie 4×4 rollers and classic acid cuts effortlessly splice with speed garage and hands-in-the-air breakbeats, complementing the transatlantic soundsystem sensibilities and perfectly pitched curveballs that have long been a hallmark of her sets. Between her much-loved NTS residency heading into its 6th year and the 3rd year of her Manchester APC parties, 2023 highlights include properly bonkers scenes at her 7-hour, all-night-long debut at The White Hotel, standout sets at Circoloco, Melt, and that Dekmantel closing b2b with Special Request, her first US tour, a second barnstorming Hessle Audio release with “Clearly Rushing,” and an extra special 8th year of her celebrated Spring/Summer Dubs production mixes.
Always looking forward, there are as-yet top-secret plans in the works for 2024 and beyond, including fresh heat on her nascent OTMI label and much, much more. Anz is still having loads of fun, and it really shows.
