Slowcook Talks "Home Fitness" Compilation & Equalizing The Dancefloor

INTERVIEW BEGINS AT 5:17 China is still battling endlessly to
contain the outbreak and it continues to spread rapidly around
the world, with cases rising in South Korea, Italy, the UK, and
even right here in New York City. more than 2000 people have been
put into quarantine. We’re starting to wonder if the US
government is equipped to handle the severity of this situation.
Luckily, there are a few people who have a solution. For the
first half of the episode, Shannon chats with Slowcook. Based in
Leeds, England and Beijing, @slowcook is a resident DJ at one of
Beijing’s popular underground clubs called “Zhaodai”. She’s also
the founder of Equalizer, a party and workshop series dedicated
to CIS, non binary and trans women in music. The workshops serve
as a safe place for female DJ's to learn skills on how to rock it
behind the decks. The collective has bought a slew of talented
DJ’s to run their workshops too like Eris Drew & Octo Octa,
DJ Moxie and Sherelle. Having been in Beijing since the virus
hit, Slowcook has seen firsthand just how much damage the virus
has done to the middle kingdom and wanted to take action to help.
I spoke to her about how shes been holding up through things and
her recent curation in collaboration with her team mates in
creating the "Home Fitness" Compilation. It’s a 19 track project
filled with breaks, experimental beats and 4 &4 bangers, with
all donations going towards helping healthcare workers on the
frontline of the virus.~ Tracklist“Daisy Chain” -
