Информация об исполнителе
TOKiMONSTA (Jennifer Lee) родилась и выросла в северной части Лос-Анджелеса. В детстве училась игре на фортепьяно, но достаточно посредственно и несосредоточенно.
Однако, этот опыт помогает ей создавать музыку, в которой используются живые инструменты, перкуссии, компьютерная обработка, а также старый, покрытый пылью винил.
Благодаря своему мастерству, она в состоянии превратить давно забытые звуки из прошедших эпох во что-нибудь авангардное и абстрактное.
Los Angeles native, TOKiMONSTA (Jennifer Lee) is known for her unique take on indie electronic/r&b/dance music. Her classical upbringing and eclectic music taste has allows her to create vast textural soundscapes—a reverberation that fuses vintage sensibilities with progressive inclinations.
Her music has been recognized and praised by the very best in tastemaker and mainstream media. TOKiMONSTA has been featured on various large-scale radio programs such as: BBC Radio1 (UK), NPR (USA), BBC World Service (UK), J Wave (JP), Studio Brussels (BE), Radio Nova (FR), KCRW (LA) to name a few.

LA Weekly ranked her as 2010’s #1 female DJ in Los Angeles. Additionally, Resident Adviser did a full feature on her for their “Breaking Through,” an RA series, which focuses on the next big artist.
