Yaz

Describe your style in three words?

Vibrant, comfortable, liberating.

The first track you played on repeat?

The Temptations - Ain't Too Proud To Beg

Mostly when I'm cooking or just want a reason to get up and move. The song is essentially about somebody showing vulnerability and not caring what anyone else thinks. That's the way you've gotta move through life.

A song from your favorite album?

Terrace Martin - Freeze Tag (feat. Phoelix)

In the morning when I'm getting up or when I want to get my friends dancing/singing along. The songs about someone tired of being targeted. The lyrics are a plea and incredibly important despite the really joyful melody.

A song from your most memorable gig?

Yaz León - Rinse at 30

It's got summer evening vibes. Get a cocktail in your hand and chill. It's actually about the racial clash between families of mixed heritage and the lack of space for those who need it most. Sarcastic lyrics despite the serious topic.

A song that always gets you up and dancing?

KAMAUU - MANGO (feat. Adeline)

Everywhere. Especially when I'm in a good mood. It's about letting someone you love move on because the person they're now with makes them better than you ever did. They want what's best for them.

A new song you're listening to?

emawk - ACOUSCOUS

When I'm sitting outside in the sun, chilling. Matches the vibe completely. It's about literally taking a breather. Stepping back.

Best song to turn up loud?

Mura Masa - Love$ick (feat. A$AP Rocky)

At a party when I want people to sing along and get uppp. It's about a girl and a guy trying to have a good time despite everything.

A song that defines the teenage you?

Vibeyard - Dreams

When I want to hype myself a little walking down the street. It's about someone else saying their music dreams can't go any further. Pretty much matches my teenage angst frustrations.

An anthemic song?

Connie Constance - Costa del Margate

When I want to headbang and jump, or sit in the passenger seat and still feel badass while I still can't drive. Get's the energy out. It's about trying to get someone to express their feelings because they've already got you interested.

Best song to end an all-nighter?

Jai Paul - All Night - Unfinished

When we're driving back from a night out and definitely need to calm down. It's a 'drive-with-the-roof-down-like-you're-in-that-perks-of-being-a-wallflower-scene' vibe. It's about something needing to last a little longer. Fitting.
