MIXED FEELINGS

Perdue profiles disc jockey Yasmina Dexter whose multilayered sonic assemblages form hynotic backdrops to catwalk shows, art installations and after parties. Dexter is Shazam's worst nightmare. Also known as Pandora's Jukebox, Dexter layers up multi-textured soundscapes and mixes for fashion industry heavyweights that are impossible to decode. She assembles diverse genres, samples and original compositions with an artistry that pushes DJing into the realms of sound design. From Ferragamo catwalk shows and Rick Owens after-parties to sets at Paris club Cicciolina, her work is varied and shifting, but the constant is that extra emotional dimension you only get from music.
