ABOUT

"I LIKE BASSLINES," SAYS LORA WITH A HUGE SMILE ON HER FACE.

"And that's the most important thing in my music. I make tech house and deep house, with the sound of a rounded garage bassline."

Of course, Lora's music is harder to describe than that, the product of a life well-lived all over the world, with all the influences and inspirations that come with it.

The daughter of a jazz musician and a James Brown and opera fanatic, born in Durban, South Africa where rock and metal ruled the airwaves, Lora’s own deep house tracks were always going to be an eclectic melting pot of layered, Latin-tinged arrangements and soulful vocals, capped off with a rock sensibility.

"Whatever I do, I want it to be beautiful," she says.
