Lady Merkaba a.k.a Lisa Lichney was born in the suburbs of Ohio and transplanted out to Portland, Oregon in 2008 where she lived for 16 years and where her profound love of music came to life. Today she is in Sedona, Arizona .

Lady Merkaba’s sound is Bass Temple-cosmic womp on most days with inspiration from legends like Desert Dwellers, Savej, Ott, Deya Dova, Kayla Scintilla, and other organic house producers like Tim Green, MosẼ, Sebastian Legér, Rufus Du Sol, and Scott Nice. 

Lady Merkaba has always been a dancer at her core. Her innate understanding of movement and flow translates into sets that are not just heard but felt, compelling everyone within earshot to join the dance.
Her repertoire is a kaleidoscope of genres, a testament to her versatility and unquenchable thirst for musical exploration. Whether she’s dropping the bass with electrifying EDM, weaving intricate patterns with melodic techno, or lifting spirits with the soulful rhythms of house, Lady Merkaba is a chameleon behind the decks.







Lady Merkaba is a graduate from Club Ready Dj School run by the one and only Andrew Duffield!

Lover of weird sounds, beautiful melodies, and gritty assaulting bass. 

INTO:IT began her musical journey as a teen in the early aughts dancing in grungy warehouses, and in the woods down dirt roads leading to a loud sound system. She is no stranger to what sensations a good bassline or beautiful vocal can evoke. 

Not beholden to one genre, she provides a journey appropriate for the occassion. Whether in a club, private party, or a festival, she will weave a vibe that ropes you in. Favoring the darker, deeper, and grittier corners of tech, her signature sound is psy tech, deep breaks and big booty bass. You can also catch her playing bassy house, deep/minimal tech, Latin house, leftfield, melodic, West Coast Bass, UKG, and occasionally DNB. Whether it's her sassy lyrics or a beautiful melody, you'll want to get in. 

A founding member of the Cheezy Delights - a Portland based female collective comprised of UR Friend, Kstar, Pleasant Hiss, and INTO:IT - her power lies in empowerment and building community. Always pushing each others musical boundaries, catching any combination of the Cheezy Delights together is sure to be a fun adventure for anyone around. 

Recently, INTO:IT has played around town at Star Theater for Stanton Warriors, Wonderlove with the Cheezy Delights, throwing a very cheezy Valentine's at Capacity, for friends at Big Tech Records, Slutgarden, and in Ankeny Alley for the Space Bass Shift Festival launch, you never know what unique event she'll pop-up at next.
