Zadie Belfer‑Shevett

Live electronics & bass guitar

Connecticut River Valley

"Earnest electronica straight from the soul."

– Tyler Etters, Co-Founder and Creative Director of Klang Magazine

As zbs.fm, I bring my experience as a composer and instrumentalist into the aesthetics of electronic music with shuffling dance grooves, naturalistic synthesizer tones and intricate sequencing. I use hardware devices to create a melodic and intentional blend of VGM-inspired downtempo electronica, UK garage and drum'n'bass.

TELL ME WHO YOU THINK I AM

my newest album, TELL ME WHO YOU THINK I AM, was released on September 1st 2025

"Zadie approaches their electronic toolkit with unparalleled curiosity, not only to find comfort and expressivity at the outer reaches of their machines’ technical functionality, but also in pursuit of fascinating aesthetic form. Every deep listen is rewarded with a comprehensive survey of genre and a glance to the horizon of new possibilities."

– Dani Derks, host of Sound + Process
