Juki P2 is the new Project by Pamela Méndez in cooperation with Tim Walsh ( The Stepkids Stonesthrow). Pamela Méndez made a name for herself in Switzerland as an extremely versatile singer and songwriter and music producer. She is also known for her activism in the fields of gender equality and diversity organizing events, and workshops in her hometown, Bern Switzerland.
With Juki P2 she breaks the borders of the common band setting collecting the broken pieces of her musical past out of which she’s creating a futuristic soundscape. Communicating a unique, yet hopeful vision of society, and human relationships in her lyrics. A vision that grew simultaneously with her passion for the thriving and pumping energy of House music and Chicago Footwork music.
This led to a trip to Chicago in 2022 where she learned the foundations of House Music and Chicago Footwork culture. Taking it as an inspiration rather than a target, she combines these elements with ambitious and sophisticated songwriting, ranging from 80- 160 bpm. This has helped her to find a world of her own. Juki P2 is also influenced by warm indie elements and hand clapping components, all tied into the aesthetics of House, Breakbeat and 80s. Futuristic psychedelic Soul-Pop could be a way to describe this music, but it's just scratching the surface of what Juki P2 is creating. Her last single Off We Go was released on the London based label Moveltraxx and included a single by none other than godfather of Chicago Footwork Traxman and aired on alternative channels such as BBC6 and Rinse London.
