NJERI

Njeri, originally from Nairobi, Kenya, has made Berlin her creative headquarters, setting the club scene ablaze with her undeniable talent. She became a common name in Berlin line-ups, has a residency at Refuge Worldwide and brings renowned venues such as Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW) to quake. Her name has become synonymous with Berlin's vibrant line-ups. As a founding member of Rafiki, a prominent DJ collective based in Berlin, Njeri demonstrates her commitment to collaborative artistry. Back in Nairobi, she took the initiative to establish "Mazuri," an event series that not only showcases local talent but also creates a platform for FLINTA DJs. Njeri's DJ sets are a captivating amalgamation of Afro House, House, Garage, and Drum & Bass, guaranteed to get even the most reluctant dancers grooving to the beat.
