Shy One – Mali

London-based sonic champion Shy One releases her long-awaited second album Mali on Errol and Alex Rita’s Touching Bass.

So-called after her given name, Mali is a confident, future-facing ode to Black British electronic music and diasporic lineage. Informed by the full spectrum of London sound that she was raised on — with a vital cast of Black British collaborators including George Riley, Steve Spacek, James Massiah and Private Joy.

Mali pulses with the energy of the dancefloor, the afters, and everything in between, cementing Shy One as one of London’s most distinctive contemporary voices.

A globetrotting DJ and award-winning NTS host, she’s released on Eglo, Numbers, Rhythm Section and Beats In Space, remixed Nubya Garcia and Oscar Jerome, and played Panorama Bar, Nowadays, Glastonbury, GALA and Nuits Sonores.
