Switching things up for the for the guest mix series this week is the incredibly talented .kio.mtl hailing all the way from Montreal, Canada 🥳🥳
Growing up with a Dad who was a DJ, she has always been immersed in music and as she explored what it had to offer she found she was ‘always drawn to bass-heavy sounds - the kind that shake your chest and move your soul. I started sneaking into warehouse raves around 15 and instantly knew that world was home. The sound systems, the lights, the people - it all just clicked’. ✨️
She’s began DJing 6 years ago with her Dad and cousin being her first teachers, ‘they showed me the ropes and from there it became an obsession - the hobby turned into a passion and the passion turned into reality’
Her preferred genres are jungle, DnB, 140, dubstep and garage with friends describing her sound as ‘bass & drum not drum and bass’ and she says they’re not wrong, ‘across every genre I touch, bass is the heartbeat. I’m all about thick, rolling low-end energy that you can feel’ but she also has a soft spot for nostalgic bootlegs ‘those remixes that make a whole room sing’ 🎶
The goal for Kio is always about connection, ‘I want to make people feel something, whether it’s joy, nostalgia or just pure release. I like to teach through sound - taking people on a journey’ 💜
She pours her heart and soul into the sounds she creates, ‘It’s more than music for me. It’s emotion, story and spirit. When I play I’m opening my world, and I want people to come with me for the ride’ ✨️
And you can really feel this in the sound she puts out, so jump into the amazing world Kio has to offer as she takes you on an incredible journey in this beautiful deep dubstep mix 💜
As always, link in bio!!✨💜
