Star Eyes
Genre: Bass
Origin: United States
Star Eyes is synonymous with raw underground bass music. A founding member of the world-renowned Trouble & Bass crew, currently at the helm of the Chaos Clan, this Los Angeles-based DJ/producer causes mayhem on the dancefloor with a style that swiftly connects the dots between regional American bass sounds and the hardcore continuum. Though her style moves across breakbeat, grime, bassline, Bmore/Jersey club, baile funk, and beyond, her aesthetic is continually inspired by jungle, old-skool hardcore, and the L.A. illegal warehouse parties in which she was raised.
Star Eyes began DJing at age 15 – her name soon became synonymous with California jungle scene, and she was a longtime resident at the pioneering female-led drum ‘n’ bass night Eklectic in San Francisco. Eventually she founded America’s first UK garage duo Syrup Girls (with DJ Siren) and moved to New York City, where she became a co-founder of the Trouble & Bass crew & record label, who were the first to bring Skepta, Skream & Benga, Night Slugs, Rusko, Elijah & Skilliam, Flava D and more to NYC. In 2009, she began releasing her first original productions and remixes on labels like UTTU, Mixpak, T&B and Worst Behavior. Since T&B disbanded in 2015, she has run her own digital label and party series called Chaos Clan and she’s currently a member of L.A. renegade party crew Warp Mode alongside Bianca Oblivion and AK Sports, along with holding down a monthly radio show on Dublab.
Star Eyes has played at Outlook Festival, Sonár, Fabric London, EDC, Burning Man, Stealth, Bossa Nova, Elsewhere, Rinse FM, and beyond. She is also an alumni of Red Bull Music Academy, a former radio host on RBMA/Red Bull Radio, a noted music journalist and the host of the RAVE TO THE GRAVE podcast (available on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, etc). With world-class skills and an irreverent attitude, Star Eyes has definitely earned the title “queen of heavy bass.”
