Lord Apex:
While London’s music scene has rightly received considerable attention in recent years thanks to its burgeoning grime and drill scenes, the work of west London MC Lord Apex eschews this categorization, with a sound that skews more stateside. Notably, he cites Knxwledge as one of his favorite producers, and his particular strain of neo-soul infused beats. Much of Lord Apex’s music sits within this hard-to-define genre, which seeks to provide a contemporary framework for hip hop’s lingua franca. But despite the evident sonic influence of American rap on Lord Apex’s, his smooth distinct drawl and subject matter leave you in little doubt of his London credentials.
For Carhartt WIP Radio, Lord Apex takes us on a rhythmic journey, assembled by his friend DJ Corrado, showcasing his own vast catalogue of tracks. As ever, we also sat down with this month’s host to discuss his musical upbringing, how London influence’s his sound, and hip hop on both sides of the pond.

Zozo:
This month’s Carhartt WIP Radio show is brought to you by Zozo, the DJ, party organizer, radio host and music collector from Istanbul, known for experimenting at the fringes of dance music. Her colorful selection of grooves are often eclectic and experimental, while incorporating the melodies of her country’s rich musical history.
Her approach is further underlined by a focus on community, with music acting as a tool to build bridges between different groups, and functioning as a “a voice that will bring to life the importance of the values and emotions we tend to leave in the modern world”.
That same ethos has seen Zozo occupy a number of roles within her field, acting as the musical director of spaces such as Hush and Luzia in Istanbul, collaborating with Lyon’s Macadam Mambo community, and holding a residency at the Berlin club Sameheads, which hosts innovative underground talent from around the world. Additionally, she is a member of the electronic music and art collective ‘Les Belles De Nuit’ from Zurich, which frequently supports women and queer artists.
As a DJ Zozo has been behind the decks of renowned clubs like Panorama Bar in Berlin, Contact in Tokyo, and Salon des Amateurs in Düsseldorf, while also regularly playing festivals like Atonal and Dekmantel Selektors.
For Carhartt WIP Radio Zozo prepared a mix that features the music of her peers, including the likes of Swedish leftfield downtempo duo Kanot Music and Greek act Anatolian Weapons, as well as some new music from Berlin’s Sameheads label and Liopress – a new adventurous label from Barcelona. When we asked Zozo about the vibe of her show, she replied: “The mix is like driving into a sonic sphere, a free flow with friends. Mystical, esoteric, dubby, peaceful, free and fun. Hopefully, it feels like a holiday!”
We also sat down with Zozo to discuss her life in Istanbul and more.
