Show Notes
London-based DDQ is a disco powerhouse. From rare groove to funk and soul, DDQ digs deep into the sounds that built the dance floor. Expect Hi-NRG, deep cuts and curveballs. One night with DDQ is never the same as the next!!
Her sets are always about championing those who created dance music as we know it today. From disco divas to Philly soul legends, she wants to make sure you're dancing to records you haven't heard before (but should!).

For DDQ, dance music has always been shaped by marginalised communities seeking connection and belonging. Without a space for them to come together we wouldn't have the music or scene we have today. That's why DDQ believes that collectives like Sisu are so important because they create opportunities whilst building a community around them.

Ngaio is a force to be reckoned with. More than just a singer, this powerhouse of a performer can switch from a killer DJ set to delivering intricate jazz harmonies with a voice that could have stepped out of the 1940s, to heart hitting spoken word. Born in London, now living in Bristol, Ngaio has been skating across musical scene since she could walk. As well as being musical director of Bristol’s Bass Choir, she has been organising and promoting events since setting up of her own night, Booty Bass, in 2018 to provide a platform for female DJ’s. Ngaio’s versatility as an artist has seen her moving audiences to standing ovations with a soul striking vocals, spark tears though truth laden lyrics, destroy dance floors with selections old and new taking crowds on a journey of nostalgia and discovery. She's DJ'd at festivals such as Glastonbury, Boomtown, Secret Garden Party, Love Saves The Day, Tokyo World.
