Emma Neil is a DJ guided by a belief in music that moves without shouting yet open, precise, and spacious. Her practice is rooted in searching, listening, and connecting sounds, allowing sets to breathe and evolve with a natural sense of flow. Emotion is at the core of her approach, often touched by a quiet melancholy. Depending on the energy of the moment, she shifts between deeper, introspective moods and raw, techno-leaning intensity, always aiming to express something honest without ever forcing it.
What drives her is the desire to transmit the feeling that music awakens in her — that sudden inner vibration, the invisible line you start following without knowing where it leads, simply because it resonates as true.
For her Microwave residency, The Room Between becomes a suspended space where music serves as a fragile yet luminous passage between her reality and her dreams. Each set unfolds like a dialogue with imagined spaces and invisible crowds, shaped by the ghost of dancefloors that never quite existed. Every mix is accompanied by a generative visual piece she creates to mirror the sound, merging her passions for audio and image and exploring the visual-curation possibilities offered by Microwave.
