NTS X DIESEL Tracks SA Presents LES. – LES is a rising star in Joburg’s underground music scene. A 23-year-old DJ and multidisciplinary creative whose artistry is rooted in authenticity and innovation. LES usually spends their time creating and mixing music in their bedroom, often branching outside of their comfort to collaborate with local artists LES grew up immersed in a variety of interests from sports like golf, to the creative passions they’re involved in today like graphic design, writing, photography and music.
Offstage, LES draws inspiration from unapologetic, expressive ideas, queerness, and the human experience. When not making music, they also enjoy programming as a fun, technical hobby to keep their brain active. Between LES’s growing love for music, photography work at fashion shows and working with models on shoots, the relationship between fashion and music is something they are taking notice of and making a point to look out for.
With goals of performing at festivals around Europe and Asia, expanding Joburg’s club scene, and integrating music with visual arts, LES is set on leaving a lasting impact. Their work fosters inclusivity, particularly for queer and trans people, through projects like MUSE with DANCE 4 THE GRLZ.
