Afro House is not something we've covered in depth on the show to date, but this week we welcome one of the UK's foremost exponents of the form. Kitty Amor was born in London, but cut her musical teeth running nights as a student Nottingham where she and her associates were instrumental in bringing the second wave of Grime, Funky, and other key London genres out of the capital. Her sound as a DJ was also developed during that stint in the midlands, and upon returning to London she made a success in establishing herself on the scene, and put herself in a great position to kick on when the international opportunities came knocking as they inevitably did. We discuss the challenges of getting started in the industry, the influence of musical parents, the peculiarities of running student nights, taking advantage of the time in lockdown, and the nature of the scene today. Kitty has some great stories and you're gonna enjoy this episode! If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!
