In Conversation with Yu Su
The autumn season of CDR Sessions continues with the boundary-pushing artist, composer and DJ Yu Su.
For those new to CDR Sessions, each event includes an in-depth, production-focused interview with a guest artist, exploring their career and creative process. The talk is flanked by openCDR, where producers and artists of all levels and abilities have the opportunity to play their own music on some of the best club sound systems across the UK. All genres and styles welcomed!
Kaifeng-born and now London-based, Yu Su has carved out an international reputation for her deeply textured productions and unpredictable DJ sets. Her acclaimed releases on Technicolor (Ninja Tune), Music From Memory and BIE Records earned her a Polaris Prize nomination and solidified her as an exciting voice in electronic music over the past decade. Having collaborated with John Carroll Kirby and Duval Timothy and remixed artists like Parquet Courts and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Yu Su continues to expand her sonic world. Her forthcoming singles "Foundry" and "Bonita" for Short Span signal a new, club-driven chapter that folds minimal, downtempo and techno influences into her kaleidoscopic sound.
Join us for an in-depth conversation with Yu Su, flanked by openCDR: your chance to bring along your works-in-progress and hear them played on Corsica Studios’ world-class sound system. We keep our events as accessible as possible but if you are able, we would appreciate your support of CDR with a £5 donation ticket. Every contribution helps us continue creating space for producers and artists to connect, learn, and grow.

Since we started back in 2001, CDR has been all about community, creating spaces for people to connect and develop through music.
Back in the Plastic People days, you could fit all of us in one small room around one soundsystem. Today, our projects and programmes extend from the dancefloor to schools, youth centres, as well as grassroots clubs and venues across the country and further afield. But in challenging times, with grassroots organisations like ours closing all around us, every bit of support counts.
Your help will enable us to continue delivering music programmes and events in the UK to the people who need it most. Our mission is simple: to build an equitable music ecosystem for producers and artists.
If you have any questions or want to support in other ways please contact us at support-us@createdefinerelease.com
