AYA

A DJ, curator, and musical explorer with Ivorian heritage, AYA moves effortlessly between the cutting edge and the timeless. Rooted in London’s underground scene and shaped by their beginnings in Leeds, their sound draws from Afrotech, electro, and Ghetto Tech while remaining deeply connected to a wider spectrum of music from disco and rare groove to traditional African sounds and contemporary global club culture.

Whether behind the decks or curating experiences, AYA is driven by a passion for uncovering connections between genres, generations, and geographies. Their selections have been heard on NTS, Reprezent Radio, and Oroko Radio, as well as at venues including Peckham Audio and Howl, with performances spanning London and Accra. Known for dynamic, high-energy sets and thoughtful curation, they bring a fresh and expansive perspective to every dancefloor.
