About
A talented musical innovator with a penchant for fusing contemporary & eclectic club sounds with more esoteric world music, Laelo Black is defining her own lane – and it’s one which places much focus on experimentation.
Laelo Black is steadily putting her stamp on the diverse alternative music landscape currently blossoming in the UK. Since landing on the scene back in 2018, this eclectic sound-curator has made a name for herself that precedents genre-defying blends and globally-facing selections at her shows; with sets that create new auras and atmospheres for London’s devout party-goers.
In line with her current contributions to London’s bustling night-life, namely her bi annual AURA club nights which seek to create a space for curious and like-minded music-lovers, Laelo has been taste-making through the airwaves with her new bi-weekly radio show on Rinse FM. Harnessing that creative space, Laelo has taken her experimentations through the stratosphere, handling styles such as afro-house, experimental house, bass, baile funk and more recently techno, with prowess.
This cutting-edge approach has led to Laelo being plucked for guest features on a plethora of nationwide music broadcasting platforms such as Resident Advisor, Foundation FM, BBC 1Xtra, NTS Radio and No Signal.
Following her careers’ rapid expansion as of late, this year Laelo is rebranding and presenting a new sonic direction, with her sights firmly set on championing alternative and underground club music.
Playing her debut Festival set at GALA festival earlier this year & frequenting venues such as Fabric, Colour Factory, Night Tales, XOYO & more…, Laelo continues to channel her experimental spirit into making these spaces her musical playground whenever she graces the decks.
For all her achievements thus far, Laelo has landed organic press coverage, contributing playlists and mixes for a plethora of culture and digital media platforms, including: Wonderland Magazine, Burberry x Dazed, The Face, PAUSE, Mixcloud, Quality Control & more.. As a talented innovator with a penchant for fusing contemporary and eclectic club sounds with more esoteric world music, Laelo Black is defining her own lane and bringing about remarkable sonic experiences for an ever-expanding international audience.
