SOLITUDE mix series: 109 coming to you live and direct from none other than Nottingham-born and bred @aura__uk
A long-standing figure within her city’s underground scene, Aura has built a reputation for her fearless approach behind the decks. Known for weaving an eclectic spectrum of bass driven sounds, her sets refuse to sit still, fluctuating between grime, dubstep, bass, techno and beyond.
What ties it all together is her belief in authenticity and a refusal to be boxed in, breaking boundaries by shifting genres and tempos to keep energies high. The result is chaos, but always in the best way.
Her contribution to the culture extends far beyond her own artistry. As the founder of Gyals In Notts (@gyalsinnotts ), Aura is actively reshaping the dynamics of Nottingham’s nightlife. The collective has become a platform for Femxle, Non-Binary and Trans talent, challenging the male-dominated status quo and creating new spaces for inclusivity within the city’s club culture.
This mix is Aura at her core: unpredictable yet intentional, fluid yet uncompromising. It captures the spirit of a selector who thrives on keeping you on your toes, never allowing you to settle, and reminding us all of the limitless potential that comes when boundaries are broken.

AURA : USB ESSENTIALS
Ahead of Aura’s well anticipated set at The Cause’s Good Good Friday party, we’ve asked the Notts selector to talk us through some of the tunes that never leave her usb.
Eva808 - You Don’t
“I really love this euphoric spacey grime one from Eva808 on White Peach, really gets me in my feels alongside the female vocals.”
Kyber - Artillery
“Kyber’s productions are wicked, super heavy hitting dubstep, I find it hard not to play this in a set. Proper powerful tune and gets any crowd gassed.”
D3U5E - Helm
“I’ve been really rating this industrial feel, forward thinking track by Helm, super gritty bass alongside sharp percussion.”
Samiel - Dolla Sign
“I’ve been rinsing this UK funky remix of dollar sign by Stush for a couple years now. I’m a big fan of Samiel’s productions but this has gotta be one of my favourites, big wubby basslines and infectious drumwork throughout.”
Destiny’s Child - If I (Goli & Asburner Remix)
“A really beautiful melodic dubstep take on ‘if’ by Destiny’s child from Nottingham veterans olinotoli/hank limit and killjoys old alias’s; Goli & Ashburner. A staple in most sets, vital on a sound system.”
