Tracy September // DJ Youngseptember

tracy september is a South African performing artist, sound practitioner, researcher and curator currently based in Zurich, Switzerland. Her first language is music. With influences of jazz and electronic experimentation, she has a particular passion for improvisation as an invitation to surrender attachment and trust the capacity of one’s intuition. Drawing from her Xhosa heritage, her performances serve as a medium for storytelling, archiving and ancestral custodianship. Crafting enigmatic and emotive sonic language, tracy’s sound and musical works are deeply rooted in ritual, community and communion, working around themes of memory, spirit and protest.

Outside of her solo projects, tracy makes music for film, theatre and dance. She is a member of the band Black Pitch and a DJ playing under the pseudonym youngseptember. tracy also speaks other artistic dialects that include theatre making, teaching and is part of the curatorial team of Les Complices*, a self-organised, independent art space in Zurich that centres queer(ed) perspectives.
