Afterlife: an odyssey through the realm of consciousness.

If there is one thing you learn about Zaya quickly, it’s the strong dedication he has for his craft. Since deciding to take his talent public, and start playing shows two years ago, he has checked off a number of huge accomplishments that continue to fuel his desire to achieve even more.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Over this time he has secured two residencies in the Southern California market. One as a monthly resident of the PANIC series parties in LA. While there he has shared the decks with LA staples such as TerraKroma, Linus and 6AM head honcho, Jia Wang. Honing and perfecting his craft under the watchful eye of the Los Angeles legends. In San Diego he hosted and curated his own monthly, at San Diego’s storied Blonde Bar, for a successful year long run. Bringing in local and upcoming talent to rock the decks on the regular.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Which led him to the desire of creating a collective that would focus on this upcoming talent and foster relationships with key players in the region. With his vision set in place for Oasis Collective, Zaya feels this endeavor will bring a much needed energy to the Southern California market. Fortifying these new friendships and building a strong network of DJ’s who have their heart in the right place.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Beyond this massive endeavor, Zaya has consistently been pushing his DJ project to new heights. From sharing the decks with artists such as Dave Seaman and Kaskade, to playing internationally at London’s famed nightclub XOYO. Zaya continuously raises the bar of what’s possible when you stay true to your stylistic identity. As his peers would say, there’s no stopping “the new kid on the block.” Catch him spinning his melodic house and techno vibes at a show near you soon.

P-I-C, aka Pilot-In-Command, was born in San Diego and currently a resident of Portland. 

Highly influenced by the sounds of the golden era of hip hop, 90s music, and the Southern California underground house and techno scene. 

P-I-C is hoping to share the vibes of his favorite rooftop house parties, techno undergrounds, and CRSSD Fest style HOUSEXTECHNO.

VNSSA has always had a passion for music even as a child. The Newport Beach native now calls Los Angeles home and has fully immersed herself in the local electronic scene. Although Santa never gave her the turntables she wanted at a young age, she soon found herself drumming in local rock and indie rock bands. From there she learned to DJ, and started performing at local clubs and house parties.

Her debut single was released in early 2018 and she has since released multiple singles and EPs on labels such as Dirtybird Records, Higher Ground, Techne, Rules Don't Apply, Sweat It Out, Realm, and Trippy Ass Technologies, including a Beatport #1 with “Word” a single in collaboration with Walker & Royce on Black Book Records/HotBoi. Catching the platform's attention, she was later named a Beatport “Next” artist, and received further support from tastemaker platforms like This Song Is Sick and Data Transmission.

Her live sets cover the length and breadth of house, breaks, and techno, although don't be surprised to hear some classic disco as well. VNSSA performs regularly at well-known venues all over the world. In addition to playing her own shows, she has performed with numerous prominent acts such as Chris Lake, Claptone, Destructo, Claude VonStroke, Justin Martin, Nora En Pure, Dombresky, Walker & Royce, Cassian, Fisher, AC Slater, and many more. 

Most recently, she released murky tech house number “In The Dark” on the first-ever Femme House compilation on Insomniac Records. The eleven-track package is built around the ethos focused on equality and empowerment.  

Looking ahead, VNSSA is set to drop an EP on Diplo's esteemed Higher Ground imprint, a milestone release for this fast-rising talent. She will also perform at some of the biggest festivals in North America in the coming months, including Outside Lands, Imagine Festival, Nocturnal Wonderland, Seismic Dance Event, not to mention her first ever headline tour.

VNSSA does not exist in the world of music because it is her choice, she exists in it because it is her calling.
