Mommas In Music Pt. 3 With Ikonika & Sepha

For episode 69, we finish up the last installment of the "Mommas
in Music" series, which also happens to be our final episode of
2022. For this show, Shannon talks to two mommas in different
parts of the world about their experiences with motherhood,
production and music.



For the first half of the show we head to the UK for a lovely
chat with DJ and producer Ikonika. The Hyperdub artist has spent
over two decades making the world dance to her incredible tracks
filled with a little bit of everything from dubstep and grime to
house and a slew of other genres. There’s something admirable
about Ikonika’s ability to shape-shift and transform into what
the heck she feels like. Over the last two years, the London-bred
artist’s imagination has taken to her music to some incredible
places.



Look no further than “No Way,” Ikonika’s contribution to Adult
Swim’s "Digitalis" compilation in 2021. We were also blown away
by “I Need You,” a sultry dance track that features rolling
Amapiano and catchy synth melodies on top of the star’s wispy
vocals.



Now, Ikonika is sending the dance floor reeling with her new EP
“Bubble Up” a project that showcases her vocals and love for
vintage deep house. Shannon chats with Ikonika about her
production process, writing music through her pregnancy and
what's next for her busy career.



For the second part of the show, we bounce over to Olympia,
Washington to chat with producer, DJ and momma of two,
Sepha.



Like Ikonika, Sepha has a deep appreciation for club music from
all corners of the world, and you can feel it in her sets and on
her weekly Twitch streams.



With two busy kiddos, at home, Sepha always finds some time to
get in the flow state with her production work and DJ sets. We
were thrilled with her “Thank You For Club Music” EP in 2021 and
everything else that has come out of her steady wave of
production over the last two years.



Shannon spoke to Sepha about club music culture in Seattle, how
she makes time to create amid her busy parenting schedule and
what she loves most about being a momma.
