Thandii is a Margate, UK-based duo fronted by vocalist Jessica Berry in collaboration with multi-instrumentalist and producer Graham Godfrey. While they've previously worked with like-minded artists such as SAULT, Little Simz, Cleo Sol, Michael Kiwanuka, and Jordan Rakei, they've quickly forged their own fascinating lane over the past few years with five stellar albums of funky, smoky, arty soul-pop. Their most recent album, FREE UP, came out in late August and added another stellar album into their quickly growing discography.
Thandii's exclusive guest DJ mix is a brilliant deep dive into their record collection as they share obscure gems that exist within the amorphous zone that spans psych, soul, world, folk, disco, R&B, funk, and more.
