the whole biography
Loqum is a Chicago-based producer and DJ originally from Istanbul, Turkey. Their distinctive hybrid style effortlessly bridges techno, footwork, and jungle, crafting an engaging sonic tapestry defined by syncopated grooves, intricate melodies, and rhythmic vocal textures. Drawing inspiration from early childhood memories of video game soundtracks, Loqum seamlessly blends the dynamic energy of Midwest contemporary dance music with diasporic sounds rooted in Turkey and the Middle East. Initially gaining prominence in Chicago's vibrant hip-hop and R&B scenes, Loqum's production credits include collaborations with rising drill artists such as Mello Buckzz, Star Bandz, and Fendi. Transitioning into the city's techno circuit in 2023, they quickly established a presence, performing at renowned underground series such as Club Hospitality, Green Machine, and Flow State. In 2025, they collaborated with Teklife footwork pioneer DJ Spinn on The Era Footwork Crew's "Let The Record Reflect." Loqum independently released their latest EP "Jungle Juke Jams" in January, which caught the attention of DJs for its innovative footwork-jungle fusion.Their RA profile lists Auda Records.Last at Mood Ring in Jul · often with sola system, Randomized Issues, DJ Strawberry, none of them here that night

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.Recently at Rodeo, Anything, Trans-Pecos · often with Petal, BABEITSPURR, Virtual Kiss, none of them here that night
