To announce the evening, KAYTRANADA told Apple Music:
When it comes to a New Year’s mix, it’s more of a celebration of, you know, getting through the whole year – whether it was hard or not, you have to celebrate getting to the end of the year. It’s a different approach than the other mixes I do. The way I approach this mix is to go in a more house direction.”
The party continues with the special set of Honey Dijon.
A New Year mix is a new beginning, we are entering a new chapter. So I try to bring that sense of lightness, freshness, joy, renewal and fun,” she tells Apple Music. “I try to bring my culture and my sound. I lean on the incredible support of the black queer people who created house music, so I always enjoy teaching, entertaining and bringing joy.”
Peggy Gouwhich will close the celebrations via live-streaming, states:
I always try to go to my sets or shows half an hour early to feel the atmosphere and see how other DJs play; I’m very sensitive to the energy of the crowd and I try to interpret it as much as possible.” On what to expect next year, she adds simply: “I don’t really like to talk about what to expect or what not to expect, so my fans should expect the unexpected in 2024.”
