BIO:
MOJAVE (female:pressure / MDA) is an American DJ, producer, and promoter who specializes in soulful house and dark techno, drawing inspiration from the beauty and decay of California's Mojave Desert. A multi-instrumentalist with a foundation in classical, jazz and music theory, formal training in sound design and production, MOJAVE brings a sharp ear, unique sound and open mind to the decks.
MOJAVE has performed nightclubs, day parties, and warehouses around the world—London, Ibiza, Seattle, Portland, Orange County, Palm Springs, Las Vegas and San Diego—supporting heavyweights like Sasha, Radio Slave, Kerri Chandler, Sonny Fodera, CamelPhat, Francesca Lombardo, John Tejada, Coyu, Huxley, Mark Kinchen, Prok & Fitch, Harvey McKay, Noir, Francesca Lombardo, Maxxi Soundsystem, Weiss, Matt Lange, Danny Howard, Ken Ishii, and The Advent.
Locally in Los Angeles, she is a resident DJ at Modern Disco Ambassadors’ La Cave and regular performer at ExchangeLA. Internationally, she holds a residency on Barcelona City FM radio (peak time, 25k listeners) and appears regularly on radio shows and podcasts in the U.K. (Data Transmission), U.S., Germany, and Canada. She serves as a social media manager for female:pressure, a Berlin-based international collective advocating for female, transgender, and non-binary artists in electronic music.
Her passion for discovering and sharing new music began as a child growing up in Boston, exploring her parents' vinyl collection and digging in local record shops. At 19, she moved to Los Angeles and New York to connect with like-minded artists and music lovers. Her love for house and techno, and the warm social inclusion of these music scenes--the idea of the dance floor as a haven--inspired her to become a DJ herself and promote these values.
Influenced by her classical training and upbringing on metal/punk, classic rock, hip-hop, post-rock and ambient music, MOJAVE delivers exciting, genre-blurring live sets and compositions. She moves fluidly between soulful house, jackin’ techno, dark, ethereal techno, ambient stretches and breaks. As the sources for new music evolve, she is on top of it, exhilarated by selecting fresh, diverse, emotionally evocative tunes that elevate the energy of the room, fill the dance floor and keep audiences guessing. With a busy international gig schedule and original productions on the way, 2019 is looking bright for MOJAVE.
