Midnight In A Perfect World

Alex Ruder

Scotland-born, Denmark-raised singer, multi-instrumentalist, and composer Clarissa Connelly creates mystical, theatrical, transportive art-pop music that's a dream-like synthesis of Nordic folk song, Celtic myth, medieval grimoires, modern pop music, as well as experimental composition and studio practices. Her third album World of Work was released back on April 12th and the record marked her debut for revered UK label Warp Records.

For her exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World, Clarissa showcases the myriad of influences that have inspired her own music, touching upon a wide range of styles that finds space for everything from delicate classical pieces to blistering grunge anthems.
