Following her contribution to this Spring?s Gudu & Friends Vol. 1 compilation, Lady Blacktronika steps out with a full EP for Peggy Gou?s Gudu label. Whether operating as Lady Blacktronika or her Femanyst alias, Akua Grant has built a deserved reputation as one of house and techno?s most daring and unique artists - one that dates back 25 years now, when she first debuted as a vocalist. ?House and techno? can be a cliched catch-all term, but in Grant?s case, she really has explored the extremes of both sides. Her early Lady Blacktronika work, when she earned the nickname The First Lady of Beatdown, saw her produce and narrate a style of deep house that was both sensitive and transgressive, while as Femanyst, she explores some of techno?s darkest corners, all distorted kicks and serrated edges.
