Olivia Mendez is a vinyl-only DJ, selector, and curator whose sets weave deep, minimalistic techno. Her sound is rooted in rhythm, shaped by her early years as a percussionist and dancer, and refined through her immersion in London’s underground scene between 2006 and 2011.

A passionate record digger with a background in music journalism and event curation, Olivia approaches her sets as narrative journeys: sonorous, layered, and emotionally resonant. From Brooklyn to Kyiv, she has queered consciousness through sound, creating dancefloors that pulse with tension, release, and intent.

She is the founder of KONVENT, a FLINTA collective dedicated to reshaping feminist discourse through site-specific music and art interventions, and the founder of her own record label, Dust in Grooves.

Alongside Chami, she co-runs DIG Curated, a cross-disciplinary platform spotlighting underground sound, visual art, and community-driven projects.

Now based in Berlin, Olivia continues to explore the intersections of activism, art, and sound, smashing the patriarchy one beat at a time.
