About me
Emma is a multi-skilled DJ, creative producer and writer based in southeast London. As a DJ, she emerged onto the scene late 2021 (winning 3 Pirate Studios competitions in 2021/2022 with Keep Hush, Late Night Shopper and We Out Here) and has since made waves as a true multi-genre music selector, playing at clubs, festivals and for brands. Emma's mix archive spans platforms such as Hör Berlin, Apple Music, NTS, Rinse FM, Soho Radio and Footpatrol, with more to come this summer. With residencies on Foundation FM and Oroko Radio, Emma makes people dance with all kinds of diasporic-derivative genres, from groovy up-tempo bass-driven club tracks to afrohouse, amapiano, garage cuts, EDM, hip-hop and r&b edits, and a feel-good selection that has been described by Foundation FM and Balamii as brilliant.

  • Naked
    NakedA piece written. A response to the visual piece by Kobena Ampofo (@mnml_plus). Thanks to Gold Host for publishing and the opportunity to express. This was and is part of an ongoing exhibition entitled 'BODY'. Excerpt. A child. A boy. The linear journey of the son of man. Flesh adorned. Body adored. The sightings of different hues. The beauty of the earth’s tapestry subdued. My garments instigate a threat. Hold on. I am no threat. Don’t shoot. My clothing layers to come off. Don't shoot.
  • beautystack HQ
    beautystack HQWe had the exciting opportunity of designing and producing the new beautystack HQ in Clerkenwell. Spanning over 4000 sq ft the space features a multifunctional central area which can transition from an event space with benches, to a break out space with bean bags. We wanted to make the office space as clean and minimal as possible, with pops of the app colours featured in divider curtains throughout the space. Tints were applied to the meeting room glass walls. With a full peach colour treat
