POPULARITY
Deeply entrenched in the underground deep house music scene for more than 25 years since the early 90's, Jenifa Mayanja staked her claim in New York and paid her dues the old fashioned way. Throughout the course of her career, Ms. Mayanja's profile has maintained a coveted underground buzz earning her a revered place in the house community and a reputation for being an innovative, fearless and respected musical ambassador for house music culture and for women in the music business. While other DJs place value on mass exposure, Jenifa Mayanja's DJ ethos is about introduction & preservation of house music culture, while injecting love and the craft of djing back into the game. She has played at premier venues like Panorama Bar, Fabric London, Lux Lisbon, Rex Club while mixing it up with gigs at beloved events like “Freerotation”, Djoon, “Kala Festival” and at Picnik Montreal appearing in a Boiler room event. Currently Jenifa holds a monthly residency at Public Records in New York called “Back to the Deep” playing alongside several luminaries such as Wajeed, JT Donaldson, Kyle Hall, Scott Grooves and Lady Monix. As a label owner, Jenifa is the creator of Bumako Recordings label, started in 2007 which introduced the world to Jenifa's signature naturalistic deep house sound. Jenifa Mayanja was also part founder of the now defunct Sound Warrior Records, the label dedicated exclusively to releasing music by other women producers. The uniqueness of her production aesthetic has seen Jenifa as a sought after remixer and guest producer for artists such as, Seb Wildblood, CC Disco, Conclave, Lauren Ritter, Coloring Lessons and Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange for SecretSundaze in addition to her own releases which include three albums. In the last couple of years, Jenifa has decided to bring her experience and knowledge to others through first educational initiatives, then formally introducing a mentoring and coaching program called “The Music Life Mentor” that works with music creatives at all levels to overcome mental and practical roadblocks to success. https://www.instagram.com/jenifamayanja MARI ELLA --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dancetothemusic/support

DICE 2019 | Intergenerationality in Dance Music with Ari Robey-Lawrence, KILLA, Jenifa Mayanja and Mac Folkes Since the nascence of the concept of popular culture in the early 20th century, it was considered something that was inherently generational — a fundamental characteristic being that each generation abandons the habits, styles and aesthetics of the old in favour of the new and completely modern. The advent of the electronic age has led to a palpable splintering between generations where fertile ground for coalition between generations once existed. Does the opportunity for intergenerational coalition and communication still exist in dance music environments? How do participants in local rave scenes circumnavigate the division and isolation imposed by the dominance of social media & virtual communities? How do we reconcile the need for exchange between generations of the past and present in the Internet age? DICE Conference + Festival is a three-day music and discourse festival in Berlin, Germany, creating a more equitable model for music spaces.

Interview with @jenifamayanja: melbournedeepcast.net/portfolio/jenifa-mayanja/ "I was aiming for a timeless mix that you cannot date because the music sounds right whenever you hear it. There was actually not too many brand new artists or tracks with the exception of one my tracks on Orbits. There is some Joe Claussell in there, Bittersuite, Ed & Jen and some old skool jams like Kurtis Blow."

Plan B Recordings, Sound Black Recordings, and Bu-Mako Recordings present SUPREME SCYENCE...a gathering of forces between three DJs, three producers, three label owners, and three FRIENDS. This will be Lady B's DEBUT visit to NYC!!!! Come out and show your love! ===================================== ====================================== LADY BLACKTRONIKA, aka., "The First Lady of Beatdown" ====================================== ====================================== http://www.residentadvisor.net/dj/ladyblacktronika http://www.discogs.com/artist/lady+blacktronika%2c+the Real name / Akua Marcelle Adaeze Grant Moniker(s) / The Lady Blacktronika, Lady B In 1997 she hooked up with dj friend Mattski who gave her first taste of music production doing vocals on numerous unreleased house tracks with him. Frustrated with "the boys not letting [her] play with their toys" she began trying her hand at house music and techno production in 2006, producing Beatdown tracks inspired by such Detroit greats as Theo Parrish, Moodymann, and Norma Jean Bell. In early '07 Mike Huckaby discovered her on Myspace. He introduced her to a global audience on a Detroit radio broadcast. She released her first single shortly there after on Deep Explorer in September of '07. She infuses experiences from her past in gritty street life while bringing a woman's sensitivity and emotion to the Beatdown genre and Chicago influenced House music. LADY B has been featured numerous times on Resident Advisor, scoring high marks for her soulful house production that is second to none. We are happy to have Miss Lady Blacktronika come out and play a Pre-Pride set alongside our crew and friends on Thursday the 30th.
