Mother Armenia x El Rio

Throw it back to SWANA club beats, dembow, and more from DJs Yuca Frita and Ari B, with Palestinian Cuban fusion food by Asúkar.

Yuca Frita is a Bay Area born and raised Peruvian-American DJ whose high-energy, percussive, genre-blending sets synthesize Latin, Afro-Caribbean and club rhythms. Her sound has been described as a "rowdy, leftfield approach to reggaeton and dembow" (Resident Advisor). Known for her hype and dynamic style, she mixes rambunctious edits with deep cuts to keep the dancefloor moving while paying homage to the club sounds of the global south. Since the onset of her DJing career in 2021, she has played several notable events including Outside Lands and La Onda Music Festival, and supported artists such as Yaeji, Tokischa, Ms Nina, MJ Nebreda, Manuka Honey, Bianca Oblivion, and more.

DJ ariB is an Iranian-American DJ, producer, and audio engineer based in the Bay Area. Their sets blend high-energy, percussive electronic music with traditional sounds from Iran, Palestine, and the SWANA diaspora, moving between club rhythms and diasporic influences. From footwork and Jersey club to chaâbi, raï, and Bandari, they bring together contemporary club sounds. Listen to their latest EP, Dokhtar Bandari, on Bandcamp.

Advance tickets available until 2PM DOS. Tickets $20 at the door.
