Miss Jay
Milan | wegoing.sound Presents
Miss Jay's wegoing.sound presentation in Milan is a defiantly eclectic ride, the kind of set that reminds us our Spotify playlists are embarrassingly coherent by comparison. This is for the joy of hearing a '90s rave classic smashed into a hyperpop edit and it making perfect, chaotic sense. The vibe is playful, unpredictable, and fiercely modern, a dancefloor where genre tags are actively being discarded. With a BPM range stretching from 107 to 176, this is a technical high-wire act, but Miss Jay anchors it with a strong presence in the moody 3B key, using it as a tonal centre for wild swings in energy.
The balance between low, mid, and high frequencies is remarkably even, allowing for everything from the sub-bass of hip-hop to the piercing synths of hardcore to coexist. The mixing is bold and cut-heavy, embracing the clash of eras and styles. The highlights are a testament to fearless taste. Opening with KW Griff's 'Bring in the Katz' is a statement of raw, swinging intent.
Dropping The Prodigy's 'Smack My Bitch Up' in full is a legendary power move that rewires any room's brain. Shygirl & Yseult's 'F*Me' is a slow-burning, sensual curveball, and Hudson Mohawke & Nikki Nair's 'Set The Roof' is the perfect, chaotic closing bomb, all distorted bass and shattered glass percussion. The journey is a controlled explosion, kicking off with the ghetto-house swing of 'Bring in the Katz', detouring through the industrial rage of The Prodigy, and finally collapsing into the sonic wreckage of 'Set The Roof'.
