DJ NIAYUKU
Niayuku's mission is to build community on the dancefloor and sonically defy borders. Her music is a tribute to her transnational upbringing, hailing from both Acapulco and California’s Central Valley. Her DJ name is a nickname that means indomitable woman in Tu'un Savi (Mixtec). Niayuku is part of Suspiro Tropical Radio, a binational DJ collective that organizes community-based events to celebrate music, dance, and cultural heritage. In 2021, Niayuku hosted Sabroso Sin Acoso, a harassment-free virtual dance party benefiting Casa Arcoiris, a non-profit in Tijuana that provides humanitarian aid to LGBTQI+ migrants. She also partnered with Tight-Lipped Podcast to launch "Suelta la Pelvis," celebrating twerk and perreo as a healing practice for chronic pelvic pain.
