For August, Crystal aka DJ Etta @etta_sound invites us to cool down the hottest summer days with a soul soothing, laid back mix of funk and groove. DJ Etta is a Leo queen, techno-funk-musicologist, and driving force to the Detroit dance community - whether it be through her sound, words, or creating a space to uplift other talent - centering black femmes. DJ Etta’s dedication to the craft resurfaces historical roots in the city from the ground up, prevailing in her sound and collaborations amongst artists across the country. 

If you’ve ever had the honor to hear a DJ Etta set, you know no matter the time or place, she brings the funk. This mix perfectly captures her groove essence hitting all spectrum of sound. A fusion of jazz, soul, house, and world music to kick back and relax on a sunny day.

My musical influences span the globe from learning to two-step at bluegrass festivals in Alaska in the late 80's and studying Turkish Folk music in Istanbul in '90, to the early Full Moon parties on Koh Pha Ngan in '92, and a decade in NYC dancing at Jackie 60, Save The Robots, Squeeze Box @Don Hill's to name a few. 
Let's get lost in the music together.
