Something old,
Something new,
Something borrowed, and
Something to make your b*lls blue.
Please note: this hasn't been updated in a minute, she is probably much much cooler by now.
Niña Mendoza is a Vancouver based music enthusiast/ DJ. She is armed with eclectic and discerning taste; an extensive rare-groove, 80’s funk, R&B classics, electro-boogie music library; and a magnetic je ne sais quoi.
As a wee lass, she gravitated to artists such as Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Madonna, The Police, Wham!, amongst many other Pop and New Wave artists that continue to have a rotation in her library today. She is known for her strong connection to music and demonstrates this through her passionate DJ sets. She takes special interest in all genres rooted in Soul and Funk, the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s eras in black music and pop, has a soft spot for locally based artists, and gets exited about old songs that are beyond their time and new songs that sound old.
Niña has been billed alongside a varied range of acts including the live concerts of India.Arie (The Commodore Ballroom, 2009), Jamie Lidell (Warp Records), Esthero, Vancouver International Jazz Fest supporting Alice Russell, Supreme Beings of Leisure; hip-hop heavy hitters Afrika Bambaataa (Godfather of Hip Hop/ Universal Zulu Nation), Ali Shaheed Muhammad (A Tribe Called Quest), ?uestlove (The Roots), Vinroc (Triple Threat DJs); and internationally known party-rockers DJ AM, Dave Nada, DJ Vice, Cosmo Baker & Ayres (The Rub).
Sidenote: OH! It's worth mentioning that I also work with the Red Bull Music Academy - London 2010. Please free to message about that.
We're bringing myspace back! It's a huge weight to bear but I think we can do it!
I just wanted to meet up and see if there's anyway I can help out with RBMA in any way? I can speak the good word! I have lived it! I will tell all via the burning bush with redbull in hand of the greatness of RBMA!
