Mary Droppinz

Based in Los Angeles, Mary Droppinz develops a DJ and producer project at the crossroads of bass music, breakbeats, UK garage, jungle, electro and house, with a marked taste for acidic lines, chopped rhythms and borrowings from soundsystem scenes. Behind this name is Alyssa Johnson, also mentioned in an interview given to VoyageLA, where she reflects on her artistic journey. Mary Droppinz emerged in the early 2020s with sets that circulate as much in American clubs as on festival stages, in a register where heavy bass, chopped vocals, hip-hop touches and structures inherited from British dance music coexist. Her presence on lineups such as Coachella, Lightning in a Bottle, Red Rocks, Amnesia Ibiza or Midway SF testifies to an anchoring both in club and festival contexts. On the production side, Mary Droppinz releases tracks and remixes distributed on major platforms and champions a mobile aesthetic, centered on the energy of the mix as well as the variety of textures, between original dubstep, trap, techno, house and syncopated rhythms.
