If there’s one word that could encompass all of Samantha Poulter’s output as Logic1000, it’s warmth. Over six productive years, the Sydney-born, Berlin-based DJ and producer has evolved into one of dance music’s most intriguing talents, with a refined, enveloping sound that’s indebted to decades of house music history.
Her 2018 debut EP, Logic1000, was released in December 2018, when she briefly went by the name DJ Logic. Its centrepiece track, DJ Logic Please Forgive Me, winningly sampled R&B singer Deborah Cox over a clean, hard-hitting bassline that beamed with love for house-meets-UK bass artists like Joy Orbison and Pearson Sound. The track caught the ear of scene tastemaker Four Tet, who played it early in his 2019 Coachella set – about as coveted an endorsement as exists in this corner of electronic music.
