UMFANG will make her debut on Ninja Tune's Technicolour imprint with “Symbolic Use Of Light” on 16th June 2017. Previously sharing her analogue-based rhythmic excursions via videogamemusic, 1080p, Phinery and Allergy Season, the New Yorker is a co-founder of Brooklyn’s colossal Discwoman crew and resident at Bossa Nova Civic Club’s Technofeminism monthly.

She does not like to intellectualise her art, describing her process - recording tracks in live takes - as being rooted in catharsis, release and improvisation rather than any identifiable high-art aim: “I want people to know that it’s accessible and that I taught myself and that you can learn too.” Still, one can understand why critics seek to ascribe this animus to her work, as she brings a refreshing sonic signature to the form, remarked upon by Actress who recently invited her to record a mix for his co-host radio show with Benji B on BBC Radio 1 / 1Xtra: “It’s techno, but she’s got these very subtle different ways of starting a track and transitioning from one idea to another – which is exactly what techno is about”.

Her equipment - a couple of Boss DR 202s in the main, but also an x0xb0x and Korg Volca FM synth for the occasional “alien noise” - was the medium to record album tracks in live takes, with minimal post-production “only for quick corrections”. Nor was the record made with an album narrative in mind - tracks are a mix of old and new, produced in batches distinct to her frame of mind at the time of recording. “My process is really about sitting down and seeing what happens - it becomes a time-capsule of whatever works from that time period,” she explains.

Good quality keyboard
Color: Graphite, Style: Battery Powered, Pattern Name: Keyboard
The Logitech Slim K950 Wireless Keyboard works great as a replacement for my old Logitech USB keyboard, but it's not perfect: Pros: Logitech is a good brand that lasts a long time, very easy to connect via Bluetooth (ready to use in minutes) but also comes with a USB to connect manually; runs on two AAA batteries (have not had to replace yet in over a month); Slim profile with low-profile keys; no problems with the functions on the keyboard so far; it's a regular width keyboard with convenient number pad. Cons: It is a bit pricey compared to some other Bluetooth keyboards; the volume keys are above the backspace bar and sometimes I hit those instead of backspace; the main issue for me is that it is supposed to have keys that are "quiet typing" - I don't like "clicky" keyboards and this one still clicks if I am typing fast or pressing hard. Not as much as other non-silent keyboards, but enough that I notice. That said, I tried a couple different "silent" keyboards and they really were not that much different, so maybe it's just me! Overall this is a good keyboard and I would purchase Logitech again.

Amazing

This is a very good product. I have had mine about two years now and I will buy another one should this one start to wear down.

Super quiet and slim keyboard
Color: Off White, Style: Battery Powered, Pattern Name: Keyboard
This keyboard is slim, stylish and super quiet! Very easy to set up and use right away without any problems. Seems very durable and I’m sure the battery life could be extended if I turned off the battery after using it but after a month of using it I have not had any issues. I bought the mouse that was recommended to go with it as well. Overall a great purchase.

Easy and sleek!
Size: 10 Inch, Color: Gold
I love the shelves! The gold finish pops on my white shelves. Easy to install, I was off by a half inch on the wood shelves I was using for the brackets but I was able to flip the brackets and use the underside to hold my shelves.
