About Mrs Jynx
Artist Biography
Inspired by aspects of work by Orbital, Aphex Twin, and µ-Ziq -- the artist who ultimately signed her to his Planet Mu label in 2008 -- Manchester, England's Mrs. Jynx, aka Hannah Davidson, creates pastoral, melody-driven IDM. Fittingly, her love of Enid Blyton's Faraway Tree trilogy of children's books is often cited, and this aligns with the escapist thread running through her music: the sense that she is creating imaginary worlds. In a similar fashion to contemporaneous artists on the Ghost Box label, she began by making use of retro synth sounds. However, her 2008 debut, The Standoffish Cat, also revealed a willingness to incorporate contemporary club sounds. Her sophomore record, Shark Carousel, followed in 2010, while 2013's Diving Loop EP marked the beginning of a hiatus. In 2021, Mrs. Jynx was coaxed back into composing by µ-Ziq, and they collaborated on Secret Garden.
