Slam Radio 679 – Olivia Mendez Tracklist
Olivia Mendez is a vinyl-only DJ, selector, and curator whose sets weave deep, minimalistic techno. Her sound is rooted in rhythm – shaped by her early years as a percussionist and dancer, and
refined through a deep immersion in London’s underground scene between 2006 and 2011.
A passionate digger with a background in music journalism and event curation, Olivia approaches her sets as narrative journeys – sonorous, layered, and emotionally resonant. From Brooklyn to Kyiv, she’s queered consciousness through sound, creating dancefloors that pulse with tension, release, and intent.
She is the founder of KONVENT, a FLINTA collective dedicated to reshaping feminist discourse through site-specific music and art interventions, and launched her own label, Dust in Grooves.
Alongside Chami, she co-runs DIG Curated, a cross-disciplinary platform spotlighting underground sound, visual art, and community-driven projects.
Now based in Berlin, Olivia continues to explore the intersections of activism, art, and sound smashing the patriarchy, one beat at a time.
