I’m not right about a lot of things, but I’m right about at least one thing: Y’all are really sleeping on Tom Marsi. Honestly some of the rawest talent out there right now when it comes to her production, but most importantly, her creativity. This month, she released FLIPFOOTS, a super fun and bouncy, D&B- and footwork-flavored, hyperpoppy rhythmic manipulation, along with supporting edits by local favorites Tomu DJ and rainsdeaf.
Tom Marsi’s eclectic musical interests and influences find quirky friendship in just about every project she sets her mind to, managing to convince unsuspecting crowds that just about anything under the mish mash umbrella of “experimental” belongs on the dancefloor. For example, my brain has never associated Wicked and Soldier Boy anywhere close to the same wavelength, but if anyone would, it’s fucking Tom! She knows how to make us silly humans MOVE, even when we don’t think we want to.
Catch her spinning vinyl around the Bay just about anywhere tbh, djing hard at the soon-to-be iconic WET parties, or tune into her streaming shows on Lower Grand Radio (The Lady Hour) and BFF.FM (The Lost Hour).
