Following a prestigious two-year residency at London’s Phonox that put her on the map as one of the country’s most talked about DJs as well as an early BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix of The Year win (previous alumni include Helena Hauff, Caribou, Flying Lotus and Nicolas Jaar) and Radio1 residency, singer, producer and DJ HAAi aka Teneil Throssell signed to legendary label Mute in 2019. Her first project on the label, 2019’s Systems Up, Windows Down, received acclaim across the board and was described by The Observer as “a bolshy collection of vibrant face-melters, taking in big-room breaks, shards of trance, playful samples inspired by her travels and punishing beats that could crack bones under a strobe light at 6am”. The project was quickly followed by a four-track EP Put Your Head Above the Parakeets last year which was rapturously received for its ability to push boundaries with its exploration and experimentation of new sounds and textures.
