Known for her work on Boiler Room and Keep Hush platforms, her involvement with queer collectives Pxssy Palace, Misery, and Filth, plus Pulotu Underworld, her event series turned global collective, Lady Shaka merges club music with cultural and ancestral sounds of the Pasifika experience.

Hailing from Aotearoa (New Zealand) and based in London, Lady Shaka is a trans-Afro Pacifica interdisciplinary DJ of Pacific Island, Indigenous Māori, and Cape Verdean descent. Her music selection blends genres like house, garage, dancehall, and drum and bass but is always heavily influenced by sounds from her own cultures and upbringing, stating, “music is a vessel that makes the body move, speak, and tell stories.”
