DJ MAIYA is a DJ, radio host, and event curator based in Richmond, VA, known for bringing an irresistible blend of house, disco, and international grooves to local and global stages. Her unique sound fuses her Indian heritage with global influences from Latin America, North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and indigenous rhythms. She gravitates towards deep, soulful rhythms and delivers high-energy, dynamic sets that expand the mind-body-soul connection on the dance floor. She's played on stages across DC, NYC, Denver, and LA, supporting acts like Jyoty, Armana Khan, Habibeats, Baalti, Byron the Aquarius, and more.

Darling Cool is a musically eclectic DJ and aspiring producer making fresh and meaningful waves between DC and Oakland. While you can catch her selecting classics, deep cuts, remixes, and edits across genres, she places a heavy emphasis on soul-moving, groove-heavy house shaped by her Nigerian + German roots and inspired by the wide range of dance music she was raised on. She has rocked stages from SF to LA, DC to NY, and beyond—playing direct support for Aluna + Coco & Breezy, Anastazja, Aqutie, Drama, Full Crate, Jayda G, SWIM, and on support bills for Andre Power, Ashanti, Chris Lake, Disclosure, HoneyLuv, Joy (Anonymous), Jyoty, Kaytranada, MK, NEZ, Salvatore Ganacci, Snakehips, and more.

DJ, Producer, and Vocalist Ohemghi (pronounced “Oh-em-gee”) is more than a DJ, she’s a movement. A self-proclaimed BAP (Black American Princess) with a bubbly, high-energy persona, she’s unafraid to set any stage on fire. Originally from North Carolina, Ohemghi blends southern soul, east coast grit, and global influences into every set. After a decade in Virginia, her sound reflects deep roots in Baltimore Club, DMV Hip Hop & Rap, and Washington D.C.’s iconic Go-Go. Down the I-95, she taps into Nola Bounce, Miami Bass, Breakbeat, and Latin House, pulling from the African diaspora, queer ballroom culture, and metropolitan swagger. Always evolving while staying true to her roots, she crafts mixes that celebrate joy, identity, and the many sounds of the Black diaspora all while rocking her signature platform heels.
