ARTIST COMMUNITY

Özten is a genre-blending DJ and producer who focuses on mixing niche and cultural sounds from her own and the world's. Her sound is a harmonious blend of her Anatolian roots, rap music and contemporary electronic. One of her signatures is breaking the boundaries between Eastern grooves and Western beats, incorporating traditional instruments like the *bağlama* and *ney* into the vibrant realms of techno and house music. Drawing inspiration from the dynamic energy of UK rap, garage, jungle, and drum & bass, Özten infuses her sets with the spirit of community she experienced at events in Bristol and London.

Check out Özten's regular live show on Brixton Radio, where she displays her unpredictable yet satisfying music, blending all the way from house and drill to arabesk and bass music.
