Thessa Torsing as upsammy creates interpretative space, cleverly paradoxical in its concurrent, comfort and desolation. With a keen ear for crystalline melody and intricate rhythm, her music sculpts a certain perpetuity and spatiality, sliding across tempo scales, while retaining an organic touch, a gentle hum of nature digitized. In her DJ sets, she takes cues from trippy electronics, the more experimental side of drum ‘n’ bass and oddball techno, conjuring up moods of various tempi and intentions. Intrigued by the rhythms and vibrational qualities of her surroundings, she intents on blurring the synthetic – natural divide. upsammy is a multidisciplinary artist, active as well in photography and video.
