Drawn from 2 tracked genres
Kiana views their sets as invitations to indulge in sensuality and mischief. The New York-born artist wears many hats in the electronic music world—in their hometown, they are known as someone who divides their time between DJing, promoting and working as a prolific critic for the electronic music publication Resident Advisor. Their early love for '90s Detroit techno, Chicago hard house and East Coast club grew in tandem with their interest in electronic music's rich Black and queer history. This appreciation for the foundations of dance music, coupled with their relentless passion for storytelling, informs their seductive ebullience behind the decks
