Born and raised in Beijing, China, and active as DJ and sound curator in the US since 2000, DJ Zhao has organized critically acclaimed long running events from Improvisation and sound art to experimental techno. After moving to Germany and starting the Ngoma collective, Zhao has been performing regularly at festivals around Europe.
DJ Zhao brings classic and modern dance music together from all five continents, with focus on Africa. With in depth selections spanning wildly different times and places, DJ Zhao’s remix and mashup work directly connects “East” and “West”, acoustic and electronic, traditional and hyper-modern. Amateur ethno-musicologist and professional booty shaker, Zhao is an ambassador of boom not only talking about, but demonstrating through raw sound experience, the underlying unity of all rhythm cultures.
