The PhD graduate’s foundation in academia lends a thoughtful, meticulous and considered approach to her work. While her musical style takes many forms, the psychedelic sounds from the expanses of the southern bush influence and inject themselves into elements of her mixes. Trance, progressive, mesmerising, and hypnotic selections have landed her multiple bookings at iconic local festivals such as Inner Varnika, Strawberry Fields and Golden Plains and give her cachet for extended international club sets and invitations to contribute to revered mix platforms including INVEINS, Sure Thing, Oddyssy and Harmony Rec. Pjenné is well-versed in personable and intimate settings and can weave IDM, cerebral and downtempo tracks into brain massaging narratives which make her a skillful selector and storyteller. She feeds this curiosity through her weekly community radio show and her label, Companion — co-managed with Milly Davison aka Millú. Companion is an exploration in ethereal 90s electronica, psychedelic IDM, and meditative leftfield sounds. Pjenné’s weekly Passing Notes show is where she can further explore sonic oddities and seek refuge from today’s highly curated music industry. Passing Notes is a raw, live, sonic journal that acts as a platform serving and highlighting the diversity of electronic music makers and the underground community that supports it. A holistic approach motivates Pjenné’s work. It’s all about the context of sound: The intricacies and projections that come with outdoor performances and how rhythm, texture and atmospherics create tension. How they fill and create space for human connection, to drift away or to dance.
