Track of the Day: Lady M - Jume

Today we have one from South African tech house act Lady M.  The other week Lady M released her latest track ‘Jume’ as a part of the Katermukke’s beastly KATER150 compilation.  While the new compilation features a stacked list of artists including Midas 104, Sven Tasnadi, Nicone, and Dirty Doering, Lady M’s ‘Jume’ stands out as a striking and hypnotic tech house tune.  It leads in with powerful kick and sustained droning bass note that instantly suck the listener in.  But when that bass note starts bouncing once the verse kicks in and the subtle vocal sample edges in behind the soft stab you can’t help but lose yourself for a few moments.  Lots of fun!Margaret Westergreen, better known by her moniker Lady M, is a South African DJ, producer, and Label Boss based out of Cape Town.  Originally a vinyl DJ, Lady M got her start playing deep melodic tech house and techno music at cocktail bars and South Africa’s nightclub scene.  In 2013 she dropped her debut EP ‘Solitude’ on Triplefire Music and quickly established herself as one of the top acts in the country.  Since then Lady M has become a staple of Triplefire on top of releasing music on labels like Dopplegaenger, Tenor Recordings, and more recently dropped her ‘People & Places EP’ on Katermukke.  Lady M also runs her own label Magique Music which has seen releases from a wide range of local acts including Emoutikon, Cassiem Latief, and Avi Subban.
