Hopefully, you RSVPed to THUMP presents Up Next, our June 20 event in NYC featuring DJ sets by Zedd, Duke Dumont and TOKiMONSTA, plus a whole bunch of crazy one-of-a-kind fireworks set off by the Samsung Galaxy S 4. If you can’t be there in person, make sure you visit THUMP on Thursday from 7PM-9PM to check out the Livestream of TOKiMONSTA and Duke Dumont’s sets. And now… introducting TOKi.
TOKiMONSTA, real name Jennifer Lee, has made a name for herself with her unique spin on electronic beatscapes; her records contain elements ranging from hard-hitting dubstep bass to softer ambient washes, always keeping a warm vibe throughout. TOKiMONSTA has caught the ears and hearts of many different dimensions of the L.A. music scene; notably, she is first female DJ/producer to be signed to Flying Lotus’ innovative and experimental label BRAINFEEDER, which has become known for providing some of the most unique and forward-thinking dance music around. In the summer of 2012, TOKiMONSTA took her innovative live show aboard the Full Flex Express tour, the first electronic music-themed train tour that travelled across Canada full steam with such heavy hitters as Skrillex, Diplo and Pretty Lights on board. With recent performances at Coachella, Sonar and Electric Zoo and an album released in the spring on Ultra Records, TOKiMONSTA has secured her spot among the dance music elite.
