Her music is strongly influenced by a combination of Venezuela\u2019s native ghetto-dance music (Changa Tuki), Afro-Caribbean beats and melodies rooted in traditional Venezuelan culture. She draws from a wide variety of electronic sounds and musical inspirations making for a dynamic sound that stands all on its own.<\/p>\n

Her music and audiovisual art intersect and compliment each other, they are profoundly impacted by individual cultural roots while reconstructed to reflect her global internet-age upbringing.
