2022 DANCE RECORDING OF THE YEAR | Rezz, deadmau5 | | The JUNO Awards

REZZ

At just 26 years old, Canada’s REZZ stands with the best of her peers, but she has a sound that’s all her own. She oozes originality and produces genre-bending electronic works, striking a sharp balance between bass-heavy and minimal tech compositions. REZZ, through her early productions on Soundcloud caught the ears of deadmau5 and Skrillex, who in 2015 oversaw the release of her debut, Insurrection, on OWSLA’s NEST HQ imprint.
