Ashley Younniä is a DJ, multi-disciplinary music curator, performing artist and cultural architect. Born in New Jersey, Ashley Younniä’s sonic storytelling is deeply rooted in the Black America tradition of house music. While based in Los Angeles, Ashley has made her distinct sound and undeniable presence known in the house and dance scene global by traveling to play in Tokyo, Mexico City, Australia, Korea and her upcoming seven city European Fall tour run. Her deeply soulful DJ sets are known to move her dance floors through the sounds of gospel, RnB, and electronic music as popularized by Black and Brown queer underground club culture.

The soundscapes Ashley has created both on and off the dance floor has led her to work with artists, cultural institutions, and brands that have included Kelela, Lion Babe, Hillman Grad, The Broad Art Museum, Miss Grass, and The Whitney Museum of American Art. 

More recently, Ashley’s definitive sound and groove has soundtracked the growth of queer-led LA house music parties like Shaun Ross’ Stardust, TheyHouseLA, and her viral appearances on Black House Radio which launched the platform into a YouTube sensation as featured in the Los Angeles Times. Her own curation and party Feelin’ Feelin’ is  set to be this year's most anticipated house music offering of the year. 

Experiencing one of Ashley Younniä’s sonic curations is like being dropped into a full length power ballad love song at a BPM that will invite your body into movement and deeper connection with yourself and the people around you. She plays to the nostalgia of old school house heads while bringing a fresh contemporary take to the genre that invites new audiences to fall in love with house music for the very first time.
