Gigi Lee (DJ, singer-songwriter, rapper) merges House, electronica, and dance-pop with rebellious flair. Between Berlin, Amsterdam, and London, she forges a sound as bold as her persona—unconventional, genre-defying, and crackling with fearless energy.

Her musical journey began in the UK, where she fell in love with house music. In 2020, she debuted with her moody trip-hop/electronica single "Would You Be My Valentine?", followed by a feature on "No More" (with G Spice) under W&O Street Tracks—earning "BEST NEW DEEP HOUSE" on Beatport.

By 2021, she signed with Warner Music, releasing the big beat/electronica  anthem "ISOLATION", which charted five times on NetEase China and surpassed 1 million streams in two months. Later that year, she dropped a remix EP with The Criminal Sounds, Mainterm, and Juany Bravo, and was crowned "BEST HOUSE DJ OF THE YEAR" by PYRO Music.

In 2023, Gigi completed a six-month residency at Shanghai’s Swatch Art Peace Hotel and was invited to Tomorrowland Belgium by Coca-Cola, who featured her in a global campaign.

2024 saw her London DJ debut at the iconic fetish party Torture Garden, followed by her collab "I Know" with Platinum producer Bolier during ADE Amsterdam. She later filmed striking music videos in Berlin, further cementing her presence in Europe’s electronic music scene.

Now in 2025, Gigi channeled the raw energy of Van Gogh’s Arles into her hyper-pop banger "Don’t F With Me" (with L.O.R.D.), performing it live in Berlin as a testament to her ever-evolving sound.
