Shygirl

Blane Muise hails from London, but her reach is global: her list of collaborators features everyone from Arca and SOPHIE to Lady Gaga and FKA Twigs. She’s a rapper and a vocalist, a DJ and producer, and the head of the label and collective NUXXE. Don’t be fooled by the stage name shygirl: her music and lyrics are hedonism incarnate, wrapped in a throbbing bassline and slick with sweat. A Pitchfork reviewer raves: “It contains the driving forces behind a good party: shamelessness and debauchery.” But there’s no use reading about Shygirl — this sound can only be understood on the dance floor.
