Up next, Jo Christy facilitates Playback with D. Tyrone!

Working predominantly with hardware, Jo builds tracks around an ever-evolving setup of Elektron machines, analogue synths, and a sample heavy process. Her workflow draws heavily from a samples taken from her extensive vinyl collection, field recordings, and interesting tones.
