Together with the beatmakers of English electro labels Fade to Mind and Night Slugs, Kelela Mizanekristos was an important trendsetter at the beginning of the decade, working the British and American subgenres of bass music, post-dubstep, hip hop, footwork, and neo-soul, all with a sensual and magnetic voice. Kelela was developing a truly unique alloy by integrating her soul melodies into this amalgamation of electro sounds. For all the right reasons, this mixtape put her on the international musical map.
