FAGGET FAIRYS RULES OK!
Prepare for some real shit when the amazing Fagget Fairys takes the stage at Oslo`s premium club The Villa
Fagget Fairys consist of DJ Sensimilla & MC ENA, feeding you with electro-grime beats and sweet baile balkan rap...
It's a journey through heavy basslines, electro-techno beats and the live performance of MC ENA.
Copenhagen-based burka-wearing lesbian ghetto-funk MC/DJ duo Fagget Fairys met on the dancefloor while DJ Sensimilla was spinning records. They fell in love, got engaged and started the band.
Since then they have played clubs like Vega and CultureBox and festivals like Strom and Roskilde. After releasing two tracks on their own ArtRebels label, they were contacted by New York blog Palms Out Sounds and collaborated on an EP with the girls, which consisted of two original tracks and two remixes by Drop The Lime and Copyfokking.
The girls flew over to NYC for the release of their EP and played at the Knitting Factory, which lead to a meeting with the New York producer Bille Bahncke, with whom the girls are making an album.
Q & A WITH FAGGET FAIRYS
What's...
...so special about you, then?
- We're a lesbian Muslim MC/DJ/producer duo with no boundaries who want to lay the world at our feet.
...your worst vice?
- Not following any rules.
...the best piece of advice you've heard?
- Work like you don´t need the money, love like you´ve never been hurt and dance like no one is watching.
...better, analog or digital?
- We love analog but only produce and play digitally.
...your favourite piece of clothing?
- We prefer being naked!
...the world coming to?
- We believe that we as a global community are becoming more aware of the need for balance, so hopefully not the end but a new beginning!
...the name of your hero?
- Osho.
...so special about your hero?
- He was an Indian enlightened master and perhaps the most rebellious of them all!
...your worst fashion secret?
- We are both very ashamed of our buffalo shoes in the nineties.
...your favourite website?
www.artrebels.com
...at the top of your shit list?
1. The government. 2. Christianity being normalised.
How would you describe your work?
- On a deeper level it´s impulsive, intuitive and very much heartfelt. And on a more technical level it´s a bass=driven grime-tech-dub-rave-tronic lesbian that effortlessly slides into an irresistible blend of pop. The songwriting is sensual, edgy and performed with a very high energy and lots of freestyling. (And the album is even better than the EP!)
