For nearly a decade, Karen Nyame KG has been an innovative and percussive luminary of dance music. Dubbed as the “Goddess of Rhythm”, KG’s plethora of African polyrhythms, low-end sub-basses, and energetic drum patterns are surefire to showcase the evolving sound of London’s club music hybridity and bounce.

She's curated May 2023's takeover. Press play for some of her favourite bops from key players in the UK Funky, Amapiano and Deep Afro House scenes.
