    their own biography

    the whole biography
    NYC based Lee Cash is a curator and DJ known for her playful, high-energy and genre-bending sets. Hailing from the West Coast, her sound is deep and visceral. Thick basslines, heavy percussion, seductive synths, and a nod to Balearic reverie that speaks to somewhere else entirely. She moves comfortably across worlds: the sleazy and the sublime, the floaty and the frenzied, rave euphoria to driving progressive and tech house grooves. With a soft spot for the 90s and the early '00s, her sets drift between atmospheric dreaminess and loud, demanding release. She never shies away from ripping it wide open and getting a little weird. Her groove-heavy sets are iconically cheeky and make letting loose feel irresistible. She holds a residency at Good Room and has notably played The Lot Radio and Public Records.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Drawing from over ten years of training as a classical pianist, BEYBLADE SHAWTY’s expansive music curation and selection practice transfigures the confines of genre, incorporating sounds from across the Black diaspora. Especially inspired by vanguard music descended from jazz, funk, and soul, BEYBLADE SHAWTY's evocative, captivating, high-energy sets invite listeners on sonic journeys across spacetimes. Playfully irreverent lyrics, percussive basslines, breakbeats, and four-on-the-floor rhythms enchant audiences, transporting them to new worlds of free movement and self-expression. At once precisely methodical and deeply intuitive, BEYBLADE SHAWTY’s mixing practice is informed by the diverse musical backdrop that accompanied her upbringing. Subverting category, the DJ utilizes techniques spanning hip-hop, club, techno, bass, global house, and beyond, igniting auditory frequencies that co-create affective trust with her audience. BEYBLADE SHAWTY hosts The Baddie Hour, a NYC party series featuring local talent at some of the city’s most beloved venues. After years of unsuccessful searching, the DJ and her friends dreamt of a safe, fun environment in which they could reliably listen (and dance!) to great music. Since she couldn’t find one, she organized one herself. The artist's monthly Half Moon radio show, BEYBLADE SHAWTY FM, streams the fourth Thursday of every month at 8 PM EST.
