“After relocating to Europe six years ago, Berlin-based, New Zealand-born House DJ Philippa turned her focus towards production, in the process consolidating two decades of experience playing to dancefloors and a growing interest in studio work into a defined set of musical ideas. The fruits of her labours are on display here across her debut EP, Pronoia. A conceptual investigation of the notion that the world around us might conspire to do us good, and a deft intermingling of jazz and disco-funk motifs with the four-to-the-floor drum machine grooves and bubbly synths Philippa learned her DJ trade on, it’s a robust four-track offering.” Martyn Pepperell, The 405 - July 2019
