Win

Win moved to Toronto from the East Coast 6 years ago, and immediately found inspiration in the incredible Toronto electronic music scene. After years of immersing herself in music and becoming a regular on Toronto dance floors, she bought herself a secondhand controller and since then she has never turned back. She is the founder of Nomada Project, a live music and deep house fusion event in Toronto, and she is a resident DJ at Architextures. Win's sets are inspired by the rhythms of the globe blending together deep house, downtempo electronica and world fusion.

As we gather each week, we acknowledge the history, spirituality, culture, and longstanding relationships which include practices of caring for the Land, Water and all beings in creation that have been maintained by the Indigenous peoples of this region. In particular we acknowledge the current treaty holders, the six nations of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy and the Mississaugas of the New Credit, who are Anishinaabe Ojibwe people as well as the history of the Huron Wendat. We seek to live in respect, peace, and right relations with our human and more than human communities as we live, work, dance and share our art & music upon their traditional territory. We are mindful of broken treaties and the need to establish respectful relationships.
