Raised across the West Coast with roots in Syria and Palestine, DJ and event producer Mansaf Mama is a central force in the West Coast’s rising queer SWANA nightlife scene. She is a resident DJ for Kousa Party in Oakland and co-founder of Mahragan Party in Los Angeles, infusing her love for Arabic folk music into the global club landscape. You can trust her to deliver a high-energy global shaabi sound—the songs you hear blasting from the streets across the global south.Recently at Mood Ring, Elsewhere · often with ARMANA KHAN, SAMIA, Nadim Maghzal, none of them here that night

the whole biography
"Riobamba is an Ecuadorian-Lithuanian producer, DJ, and cultural activist based in Brooklyn. Riobamba’s rowdy, deeply researched live sets reflect back nightlife’s power as a site of joy and resistance, amplifying connective tissues between YouTube clips, dembow brujería, bodega soundtracks, and noise hyperreality “suped up with a twisted, industrial gnarl” (Complex). As a self-made bridge between música urbana’s underground movements and pioneers, Riobamba has recently shared the stage with Tego Calderón, Maluma, Nina Sky, DJ Playero, Rosa Pistola, and DJ Blass. The Fader has called her production work “a radically self-expressive piece of futurism that stands against a single, boxed-in definition of what Latinx club music can be.” Riobamba is founder of record label and creative agency APOCALIPSIS, a platform insistent on visibility for narratives by those “ni de aquí, ni de allá” (neither from here, nor there); recent highlights include curating and co-producing Boiler Room’s first reggaetón showcase, and providing ongoing music education in a Brooklyn juvenile detention center. Riobamba leads A&R for the iconic Nuyorican music label Fania, home to groundbreaking artists Celia Cruz, Héctor Lavoe, and Willie Colón, and was previously Music Editor of cultural platform Remezcla. Prior to moving to NYC, she was the first Colombia-based researcher in the Fulbright-mtvU program, studying the subversive power of digital music production in a region enduring the effects of civil conflict. Her original work has been featured in Resident Advisor, Univision, Fact Mag, The Fader, Thump, Complex, and Red Bull Music Academy Radio." - DISCWOMANTechno on 2, Reggaeton on 2, Ambient on 1 and Bass Music on 1. styles on their catalogued releasesReleased on Orphan Records (2) (1), Place (1) and Sony Masterworks (1). labels on their catalogued releasesRecently at Paragon, The Bush Dyke Bar, Elsewhere · often with Oscar Nñ, DREAMINSLOW, SKYWALKER, none of them here that night
