Crystal Murray 

The daughter of a Franca-Spanish mother and an African-American Jazz musician, Crystal Murray is carving out her own lane when it comes to music. Similar to her taste in nightlife, her sound cant be boxed into genres, with her hotly anticipated 'Twisted Bases' EP out in February 2022.


Alongside music, Crystal is a well known name within Parisian club culture, driving a fresh new and influential sound through the clubs. Growing up as part of 

 (the Parisian female collective who found themselves modelling for the biggest high fashion brands and playing all the fashion week parties), the foundations of her career in music and connection to club culture were set from early on. She recalls an iconic night with DJ Broodoo Ramses where the two created a club experience which wove live music into an expertly curated set which she describes as 

‘a sound that I rarely see… the energy was raw’

“I’d probably say to arrive at 1-2 am, then leave the club at 5am. You can go home if you're tired, of course!

Sometimes I like going dancing to a smaller rave - I like different vibes in my night, where I go home by 8-10pm. But not EVERY weekend!”

La Créole has the best party there.It’s sweaty, and tiny. You can get crazy without even drinking alcohol because the energy is so raw.

A historic place to go dance, and feel an old glam / the chaos of the party.

A nice place to disconnect with the real world.

This is a new club that just opened and I feel like it’s gonna be crazy. 

Technically a bar; but some Monday nights, we get freaky.

A label that throw parties all around Paris - the location always changes, check out their Instagram 

When you’re in there, it is so tiny but every door opens to somewhere incredible. A maze.
