Excited to announce I’m heading to the UK next month for a tour!
I’ll be performing at @jamzsupernova’s takeover at the carpet shop, and also taking part in the @audiodevcon Bristol as a panelist and performer.
My film 6Sense directed by @amilcarpatel__ and @thisischriskets will also be screening in Bristol and London!
I’m so grateful to @l.acoustics.official, ADC and PACE, @minamusicuk and @sam_interface for the support in making this tour happen.
I’m very much looking forward to it!

ISIMO

“Isimo” — meaning *situation* in isiZulu.

This one is personal. It speaks to those moments where life gets heavy and uncertain… where you start questioning everything — faith, purpose, and whether there’s something greater guiding us, or if we need to return to more traditional ways of living.

As the cost of life keeps rising, so does the weight of navigating it. At the same time, my eyesight continues to change, shaping how I experience the world and my music.

“ISIMO” sits in that space — between doubt and resilience, questioning and acceptance.

Produced and performed by myself.

Out now.

Just dropped a new single: "FUN’KWENZANI"

“Fun’kwenzani” means “what are you going to do?” — a question I’ve been asking myself a lot lately as the creative industry keeps shifting with technology and politics.

This one is inspired by Jazz Hop and 90’s Kwaito, with sound design shaped by my recent trip to Nairobi — the energy out there really stayed with me.

Hope it resonates with you.

So… fun’kwenzani?

Cheap technology and open access to knowledge have made building your own instruments more possible than ever. Yet most electronic musicians still rely on off-the-shelf tools,conventional interfaces, plastic hardware and interaction models rooted largely in Western musical traditions.
.
Philosopher Yuk Hui calls this out through the idea of technodiversity ,a reminder that technology is never neutral, and that music risks becoming flattened into a fragile technological monoculture. If we’re serious about inclusive design, we need a richer ecosystem of instruments,tools that reflect cultural difference, accessibility needs, language and diverse musical practices.
.
At Kilele 2024, Astrid Bin’s talk “It’s Never Just A Slider” compared commercial music interfaces to ultra-processed food: functional, predictable, standardized. She later led the panel “Outside the Grid,” exploring tools that move beyond dominant systems of design.
.
This year, Astrid returns alongside Angela Oduor Lungati, Adam Yawe and Mxshi Mo for a critical conversation on technodiversity, open-source communities, inclusive design and what more expansive tool-making can offer music makers everywhere.

Good morning, Nairobi 🇰🇪

Already here. Already inspired.

There’s something special about this skyline… the energy feels alive.
I’m grateful to wake up in this beautiful city.

I can’t wait to connect with the artists and incredible people of Kenya.
Let’s create something meaningful.

#Nairobi #Kenya #AfricanCreatives #NewBeginnings #ElectronicMusic

Just landed in Nairobi 🇰🇪 excited for a busy week at @kilelesummit !

Last year, the screening of "6SENSE" produced by @amilcarpatel__ @thisischriskets and @kamvacollective at Kilele introduced us to South African electronic innovator Mxshi Mo ( @mxshimo ) , offering an intimate look into his world and the realities of creating beyond sight. The impact lingered long after the screening, sparking collective resolve to make his presence at Kilele 26 possible.
.
Now, that intention comes full circle. We’re excited to welcome Mxshi Mo into a Kilele residency, where he’ll co-create new accessible instruments with the Instrument Makers Lab, take part in conversations across the programme, and bring his sound to the stage.
.
Catch Mxshi Mo live on 27th February at The Mall Rooftop
