This past summer at Shambhala Music Festival, 2016, Warp Academy and had the pleasure of experiencing CloZee headline The Grove stage. A rising star of the bass music scene, her fresh style of ethnically-inspired world music, blended with meticulous production and dominating bass had the dance floor frothing.
