Born and raised in Gary, Indiana, a city notorious for extreme violence and poverty alike, Patton is now one of electronic music’s leading artists. While her soundscapes are rooted in footwork’s blistering rhythms, they also reimagine the parameters of the genre. After discovering footwork while majoring in math at Purdue University, Patton began ditching classes to study music from genre pioneers like RP Boo and DJ Rashad. As she developed as a producer, she befriended Boo and Rashad on MySpace and, in 2011, her track “Erotic Heat” caught the attention of Planet Mu founder Mike Paradinas, who included it on the label’s Bangs & Works, Vol. 2 compilation. Not convinced that her music would sustain her financially, Patton worked at a local steel mill while she composed her universally-acclaimed 2015 debut, Dark Energy (Planet Mu). Her sophomore release, Black Origami, received even greater praise for its bold deployment of punishing percussion and rhythms from around the world. While she’s already expanded the limits of footwork and forged a path for women in the still male-dominated world of electronic music, Patton continues to chart new territory, putting out Autobiography, the score for her collaboration with renowned British choreographer Wayne McGregor, as her third release.
