YouYou (2)

@youyou-2 · West + Wales

Co-founder of SOMNAMBULA and a shapeshifter behind the decks, YouYou weaves genre and mood with instinctual ease. Her sets move fluidly with emotional charge - ambient to acid, jazz to jungle, funk to electro, into the deep, psychedelic and glitch-laced edges of underground house, dubbed-out bass, leftfield techno, electro, IDM, and everything in between. A classically trained vocalist, her musical roots run wide and weird. Nothing is off limits, and her adaptability and versatility as a DJ is reflected in her bookings. With an instinct for curation and a serious collection to back it, she’s shared lineups with heavyweights like Radioactive Man, Loefah, Dr. Rubinstein, Ben Pest, Two Shell, Papa Nugs, Sarra Wild and Ahadadream to name a few. From the glitchy and gritty, to playful, warm groovers, her intricate style keeps heads turning. With residencies on Sheffield’s Mondo Radio, Bristol’s Void Radio, Birmingham’s Komrad94 and guest mixes on SWU.fm and Noods, she has made impactful appearances at Venue MOT, No Bounds, Love Inn, Westival, Dalston Den, Shell.Tek, Lost Horizon, Thekla and more, the Seasoning resident blends raw instinct with deep digging, carving out a distinct presence - YouYou’s sound hits with intent.
