Courtney Bailey

Courtney Bailey never rushes. Her DJ sets are patient, slow-burning odysseys that layer up dubby, acidic, mid-tempo grooves into rapturous experiences. She founded the disruptive underground rave NOCOMPLY back home in Japan, and now regularly lights up Panorama Bar in her adoptive city. Her debut album is full of expansive synths and gentle, whispering vocals. Balearic warmth, dancefloor wonder and moonlit oceans make it a curious and charming listen that is perfect for full body immersion. The record, like the DJ behind it, captures the joy of stepping into the unknown.
