Paris based Inessa Raum is an individual who’s embarked on a journey that’s every bit as unique as her online persona suggests. A woman with numerous strings to her bow, Raum’s life is one that’s heavily indebted to creative pastures — but it’s as her role as a discerning and unpredictable DJ for which she is beginning to carve out a more-than-solid reputation.
Her most recent endeavour is the Take A Trip project she is carving out alongside DJ W!LD a record label that is set to make its mark, and a series of fetish themed events in the UK, EU and beyond in the coming years, amongst unique and off kilter locations.
Simultaneously, since 2017, she has also been working with W!LD on his globally renowned Dailycid imprint, where Inessa acts as Creative Director. Another medium where her vigour and distinctive vision is wonderfully executed and brought to life, Dailycid’s aestheticallypleasing mosaics are designed to leave an impression – resulting in artwork that acts as a perfect accompaniment to the label’s many brilliant sounds.
Given her current musical background, it’s perhaps no surprise that Inessa herself adopts a sound that’s suitably eclectic and often geared toward the dancefloor. A true selector whose passion lies in discovering hard-tofind gems and presenting them in her own inimitable fashion, she is just as likely to spin upfront minimal, house cuts or more breakbeat -inclined jams. Like many before her Inessa draws influence from her vast past experiences years or closely following underground institutions and the performers within them, absorbing the innovative sounds and straining them out within her record bag.
All things considered, it’s thus no surprise that Inessa has already stepped into the booth alongside some of the scene’s most respected names, including Dj W!LD, Traumer, Einzelkind, Cesar Merveille and Voigtmann to name a few. She continues to shine strong, developing and evolving as an artist, embracing her creative flair and adding that into her diverse artillery within the booth. A force to be reckoned with in the years to come.
