Kudu: DJ RAQX, MARI, Jaeku, DJ Durtystuf, N-SONG
About This Event
Mood Ring hosts Kudu, a DJ bill that brings together DJ RAQX, MARI, Jaeku, DJ Durtystuf and N-SONG. Jaeku, whose sets have been heard at H0L0 and who has shared bills with Co/Function 39 and Jack Tonelli, treats mixing as structure, shaping long transitions and steady momentum rather than display. MARI, a South Sudanese DJ active in New York’s Sleepwalk circuit, moves between club-ready electronics and rock/pop framing with an activist’s attention to pacing and mood.
