Emotional & Bouncy.

Name: Verushka (@verushka_sirit)
Pronouns: she/her
Location: from caracas / barcelona based

Influences: Everything that reminds me of ‘changa’, as my friend Phran helped me to describe (because the term has some mysticism), was the music we danced to at the ‘minitecas’ in the 90s/00s. That sound would be a mix of House, Euro-dance, Mákina, Techno-Trance, Tribal House, and Hard House, all together. That now has evolved into worldwide reckoned genres such as Raptor House, Hard Fusion, Changa Tukky, Town House, Street House/Techno.

Affiliations/Residencies/Projects:
Co-founder & Dj resident at Me siento extraña
A FLINTA* collective based in BCN.

Favorite Quote:

“Una resuelve”  🤍

I guess the translation will sound like “Work it”

Advice for the DJs, producers and artists of our community:
Try to do yoga or engage in something you enjoy that helps you move the energy in your body, take care of your mental health, take time off, sleep, and try escaping from the city to nature once in a while for a full body and mind recharge, might sounds obvious, but it is effective 🤍🤍🤍

About the mix: ‘AINES’ would describe it as: the nostalgic vibe, or ‘Hello Sasy’ as apotheosic feelings, of one of the songs in it.
