Summary

In this Virtual Sessions episode, host Darran Bruce welcomes Nvrsoft, also known as Kathy, to share her path from curious teenager to established artist in the drum and bass scene. She begins by reflecting on the origins of her stage name, rooted in gaming memories with her brother, and how those moments continue to influence her creative identity.

Kathy describes her music as deeply emotional, often carrying a “pretty sad” tone yet aimed at being universal. She feels a natural connection to liquid and jungle drum and bass while experimenting with halftime, trap, and experimental beats. For her, music is about making connections that transcend personal experience and resonate broadly with listeners.

The conversation highlights her collaborations with Souljunk, Sophia, and the YANA Music collective, while also spotlighting her leadership within D&B Girls. Kathy emphasizes building safe and supportive spaces, encouraging diversity, and mentoring the next wave of artists. These roles showcase her dedication to growing the culture beyond her own projects.

Away from music, Kathy shares how her academic studies in communications and her love of culinary arts shape her worldview. She discusses her admiration for thinkers like Joseph Campbell and creatives like Anthony Bourdain, who inspired her to view artistry as a shared human journey. Looking forward, she teases orchestral collaborations, new festival dates, and continued growth as both an artist and community builder.
