Rising from the heart of China to the pulsating beats of Los Angeles, DI SUN is more than a techno DJ and producer – she is a force to be reckoned with. From the early days, DI SUN’s musical roots were planted in the rich soil of traditional Chinese instruments.
Mastering the Guzheng in her childhood, she discovered a passion that transcended boundaries, ultimately evolving into a full-fledged techno affinity. With a foundation in classical training and a thirst for electronic exploration, DI SUN embarked on a journey that has now placed her among the elite of the techno scene.
Inspired by the likes of Adam Beyer, Layton Giordani, Eli Brown, and Space92, DI SUN’s sonic journey has graced labels such as Drumcode, Nervous Records, mau5trap, and AfterTraxx. Hailing from China but currently calling Los Angeles home, DI SUN’s multicultural background infuses her music with a unique flavor. Her style is best described as an infectious mix of in-your-face hard techno kissed ever so slightly by pop-driven elements.
DI SUN’s commitment to her craft echoes through every beat. Her sonic explorations transcend convention, inviting enthusiasts to experience the raw, unfiltered energy that defines the true essence of techno.
Today, she joins the NUDE Techno podcast, with an hour of Techno. Listen to it below on SoundCloud & Mixcloud. If you are feeling this series, then please consider supporting it on Mixcloud Select.
