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.
