Phaxas

Emerging from her involvement as a sound engineer and shortly thereafter as a performer for a nationally touring live electronic act, Phaxas has carved out a unique space as a solo electronic artist and DJ. With influences from post-techno, idm and bass music, she expresses and creates a fresh breed of melodic yet rhythmically-driven electronica. Phaxas' music is a fusion of the range of those influences combined with strains of house and syncopated rhythms along with warm sounds and deep basses. Her skillset as an audio engineer, producer, and live performer make for a sonically palpable dance vibe. Her notable gigs include: III Points festival, Artopia, Afrobeta's Mooncake fest, Klanbox's Klangbang, Lemon City Day School, Gramps, and several gallery spaces. She co-hosts a weekly internet radio show called Mashene along with fellow dj Heather Holiday, which focuses on women in electronics.
