Chloe Lula's own words on the mix:
"I’ve been leaning hard into non-4/4 rhythms over the last year or so, and this mix is really a showcase of the kind of music that’s been really inspiring to me (electro, breaks, DnB, jungle. etc.) I’m especially into artists who are able to meld these genres with dark industrial and EBM tropes, which is definitely the direction I see my music moving in!"

We created the series to promote and compensate musicians with new weekly mix releases on Soundcloud and Mixcloud - all curated by Benji B.

In an increasingly uncertain business of being a musician DJ or performing artist we wanted to find a way to contribute to supporting the music and nightlife scene.

The effort intends to equip artists to advance their creative and performance opportunities on a global stage, as nightclubs and music venues have largely faced ongoing closures and other restrictions internationally as the COVID-19 pandemic persists.
