12 Days of Mixmas | Alison Wonderland

Day 8: Late Rabbits Running

On the eighth day of Mixmas, THUMP gave to me… Late Rabbits Running…

Aussie beatmaker Alison Wonderland has had a breakout 2014. She's come a long way from playing cello in the Sydney Youth Orchestra, now preferring to tear up dancefloors across the world with her brand of rangy, playful, and unpredictable Aussie bass that's won over the likes of collaborators Lido and Djemba Djemba alongside thousands of fans.

With her debut album forthcoming and hits like "Cold" and "I Want U" in the can, Wonderland took her Mixmas mix as an opportunity to make a statement. "Late Rabbits Running," finds Wonderland at her trippiest, dropping gems from SOPHIE to Massive Attack amidst Bill Withers samples and originals like her own "Cold." She's a DJ who isn't afraid to take risks and looks to take listeners for a ride.

For instance, at some point she drops "Remember Me?" by the Blue Boy, a track you probably haven't heard since you went fumbling about your older brother's record collection from the early 90s. Oh, and then there's that "Bugatti" remix…
