Shanti is a Chicago-based DJ who explores philosophical themes of existential angst and ambiguity through surreal, foreboding, apocalyptic techno, angsty EBM, and squishy acid soundscapes. Her sets weave a story of the simultaneous despair and yearning that are intertwined with the human condition.
Shanti also hosts a monthly radio show "Liminal Radio" on WIIT 88.9FM Chicago every second Monday of the month, 1-3pm CST featuring inspiring guest DJs.
