She is the queen warrior of her own special brand of Baile Funk: CARIOCA BASS! Born in Vitoria, Brazil, ZUZUKA grew up in Rio and spent her formative years in the West Indies in the Caribbean. From her international vantage point she operates like a provocatively rhyming hurricane, sucking up global riddims from ghettotech to dancehall and flinging them back out at gale-force speeds. ZUZUKA will be playing new material from her soon-to-be released collaboration with Nego Mozambique!! YOUR DJ's.... ► PRECOLUMBIAN is a Philadelphia based genderqueer DJ, musician, and media activist.

She is one half of popular Philly queer dance party Cutn Paste and has just been awarded the 2013 Leeway Transformation Award for her innovative work... in the club. ► FALSE WITNESS is the latest project by producer Marco Gomez. The sound of False Witness explores various urban dance genres from Latin America, the Caribbean and around the world, but with an aggressive queer twist. False Witness is a member of the NYC based collective #KUNQ. ► OSCAR NÑ is a NYC-based DJ and one of the main papis behind Papi Juice, a monthly dance party celebrating queer male-identified people of color. Born in Honduras and having lived in cities across North America, Oscar Nñ's sound is a curated blend of global and virtual urban genres with a prominent queer sensibility. Currently, Oscar Nñ is focused on developing his sonic identity, creating mixes and DJing around NYC, with plans to produce his own sounds in the near future. His latest mix was featured on NPR's Alt.Latino program, kicking off 2014 just right. Catch him every fourth Saturday at One Last Shag for Papi Juice! ► SHOMI NOISE is AZUCAR's resident DJ and 90s riot grrrl!! She is a producer, musician, and writer, bringing the grrrlpower to the Brooklyn underground scene. Her DJ sets include a creative mix of genres and sounds ranging from Latin dance music to electrohouse, reggae to indie rock. ► ISL has been working behind the scenes producing Azucar for almost 3 years and is now taking her turn behind the decks! This LA grrrl draws from a wide range of musical influences, blending her love of island and border sounds with the 90s hip hop and house jams of her youth. She recently made her DJ debut as part of las Nenas Rudas with Precolumbian, reviving SKA & Rocksteady for the modern dance floor in the form of #futureska.
