Having recently relocated to Europe, Medellín-born DJ zizi K reflects that the energy and passion for music she’s encountered isn’t so different from her city back home - "it’s pretty similar, just in a different setting". Growing up during Colombia’s golden age of hardcore punk, it’s clear how the genre’s raw drum-driven energy and rebellious attitude could serve as a gateway to equally intense electronic music. Yet, there’s an introspective depth and balance to the way she navigates her tastes and approach to DJing. Over the past year, she’s been a resident on Internet Public Radio with her themed morning show, Look Inside, where she invites DJs to curate mixes of the music they’d love to hear when waking up or making their first cup of coffee. The results are a heartfelt blend of styles, from downtempo breaks and low-slung house grooves to delicate electronics and ambient soundscapes. A designer by day, it’s no surprise she’s completely embraced the curative side of being a DJ. She shares that she loves crafting mixes with a fluid, cohesive flow, but what truly matters to her is ensuring they resonate emotionally. Her Truancy Sessions mix showcases this beautifully, with tracks from Skee Mask, Vince Watson, Joe Koshin, and Nathan Alexander seeping through with those sincere euphoric undertones.
