Brazilian musician and artist on sample ethics
Based in London, United Kingdom
This is a conference discussion, with Laima Leyton bringing the perspective of an artist-music practice rather than a DJ set. Her work sits between music, performance and audience interaction, so she reads like the kind of speaker who treats sampling as lived cultural exchange, not just production technique.
Leyton comes out of São Paulo’s contemporary art scene and is now based in London. She has worked since 2004 as a musician, DJed as Mixhell, toured with Soulwax, and since 2021 has been one half of InnerSwell, a sound-and-accessibility project at Gasworks Gallery.
