Effy on her hometown of Blackpool, musically challenging the crowd and taking up space

Belta · 2023-05-02

Today's episode of Belta is with producer and DJ Effy. Originally from the North West - near Blackpool - and now based in London, she is truly one of a kind in the high energy, emotionally driven music she delivers through her productions and how this translates onto the dancefloor

We spoke about her upbringing in the North West, music production as a cathartic form of art and the issue of gender in the music industry. In true Belta form, we also discussed our favourite coastlines of the UK and pride for your hometown! Don’t say this podcast isn’t unique...

Belta

Belta goes behind the scenes with DJs, producers and folk in the electronic music scene - totally unfiltered. There’s a catch, though: they’re all from, or based in, the north. This might be the north of their country, region or city, but each guest is tied by this common thread. Get comfortable and listen to some of the people in the industry smashing it right now: discover a thing or two about the north in the process, and get to know those you thought you once knew as Belta dives deep into our guests' lives. Shy bairns get nowt, after all…
