THE FUTURE IS FEMALE.

The impact of Peggy Gou, Nicole Moudaber, & Ida Engberg have had on the House & Techno scene is undeniable.

For the last 2 decades BLU9 has positioned herself to reach the top of the industry and she’s just getting started. 

BLU9 is a classically trained musician from at the early age of 7. This is completely evident in her award winning productions and unforgettable DJ sets that have taken her all over the world.

BLU9 has destroyed the Beatport charts with her releases on Toolroom, Phobiq, Poker Flat, Farris Wheel & Vested over the past decade and her music is supported by legendary acts like Juliet Fox, Steve Bug, Nicole Moudaber, Joyce Muniz, Sasha Carassi, Nakadia, Gene Farris & and the great Hiroko Yamamura.

Her world class productions will soon land her on top tier labels like Tronic, Drumcode, Octopus, Suara & more and her live performances are energetic, filled with moments and her unique fingerprint on the ever evolving landscape of electronic music.

Along with Avid Artist Agency (Christian Smith, Drunken Kong, Ivory, Savage & Shē) the future is beyond bright for this passionate, creative and unstoppable artist and 2024 will be a breakout year for BLU9 with dangerous releases on major labels, one of a kind LIVE PERFORMANCES and a heartfelt love affair with electronic music.
