DT728 – VNSSA

VNSSA has always had a passion for music, even as a child.

The Newport Beach native now calls Los Angeles home, and has immersed herself into the local electronic scene. Although Santa never gave her the turntables she wanted at a young age, she soon found herself drumming in local rock and indie rock bands. From there she learned to DJ, and started performing at local clubs and house parties. 

After DJing for 5 years and producing for 2, her debut single was released in early 2018 on House of Hustle Records and since, she has released multiple EP’s and singles on labels such as Dirtybird, Higher Ground, Sweat It Out, Psycho Disco, Box of Cats, Trippy Ass Technologies, Strangelove Recordings, and many more, including a Beatport #1 single “Word”, with Walker & Royce, on Black Book Records/ HotBoi. 

Her live sets cover all genres of house and techno, although don’t be surprised to hear some classic disco as well. VNSSA performs regularly at well-known venues all over the country. In addition to playing her own shows, she has performed with numerous acts such as Chris Lake, Claptone, Destructo, Claude VonStroke, Justin Martin, Nora En Pure, Ciszak, Worthy, Walker & Royce, Cassian, Steve Darko, Ardalan, Fisher, AC Slater, Kyle Watson, Wongo, Bot, and many more. 

Following releases last year on Dirtybird, Trippy Ass Technologies and Box Of Cats, VNSSA continues her rise into 2021 with new single Cuz Of The Beat, marking her debut on Noizu’s tastemaker Techne label.

Today, she joins on the podcast for the first time. Listen to it below, on Mixcloud or iTunes here.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?
That’s a tough question because I love all of these tracks. It would probably be Mighty Mouse “Midnight Mouse” because I’m a sucker for disco.

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?
Pizazz

Tell us about your next EP?
“Cuz of the Beat” is part acid, part house, with a driving bassline and cowbells sprinkled on top. 

What have you got coming up?
I’ve got a lot of special edits and tracks I plan on releasing this year, and hopefully some shows.  

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?
Wash your hands, wear a mask, stay hydrated, and take care of each other. Catch ya on the flippity flip.
