Listeners will also find pivotal moments from pop culture-like a 1999 Winona Ryder interview discussing Girl, Interrupted-decontextualized, as a way to convey their universality. It’s difficult to describe the way a DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ song sounds, because her style varies so greatly-there’s lo-fi house beats overlaid with vocal samples soulful, roller-rink disco hip-hop ‘80s-style power ballads and Eurodance. “I think the imagery is a great way to depict the type of abstract movie aesthetic I’m trying to convey-a sort of warped TV movie that makes you cry in a way no mainstream movie would be able to,” she says. The producer has always been a fan of the show its witty, eccentric, and heartwarming moments speak to her.

Sabrina’s spells often went awry and created problems in her teenage life. The sitcom, based on an Archie Comics series, is about a 16-year-old witch who lives with her 600 year-old aunts and their snarky talking cat Salem. That’s why she chose Sabrina Spellman, the titular character of the ‘90s sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch, as both her name and 8-bit avatar.

“I’ve always liked the idea of giving that feeling back to others-to try and distill the sound I’m hearing in my favorite songs into something that would translate to others who might have missed those little moments of beauty,” she says. Her brand of lo-fi house is a judgement-free zone, where listeners can revel in the intensity of falling in love, experiencing heartbreak, weathering deep crushes, and dancing their worries away in the warm glow of the dancefloor. Looking for speeches, TV moments, music, and beats to sample unwittingly led her to a sound that channels the carefree excesses and deep emotion of her late ‘90s and early ‘00s youth, leavening it with a heavy dose of nostalgia. As she tells it, her sound is a byproduct of the music she listens to on a daily basis.

But recreating that aesthetic wasn’t something she set out to do-at least, not at first. London electronic music producer DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ is an expert at reconstructing the kitschy romanticism of late ‘80s, ‘90s and early ‘00s pop music.
