Juana

Juana is a DJ and producer hailing from the city of Chicago. She started out like most, as a random kid on the dance floor every week at places like The Generator and Boom Boom Room, and has been DJing house, techno, and disco parties since roughly 2001. Juana started obsessively collecting disco and early house records in the late 90s and eventually developed an undying penchant for straight-ahead techno and darker shades of Chicago underground acid and deep house of the 80s and 90s. Over the past several years, Juana has made her mark in DC as primarily a techno DJ, becoming a weekend fixture at local venues and as a member of the founding squad of the Sequence collective, led by Ron Jackson. Juana joined the Discwoman roster in 2017 and is a founding member of the DC QT BIPOC collective NOXEEMA JACKSON. Her first independent EP “Floating” landed in 2020 and her most recent EP “Peaks” was released in July 2021. She is probably working on new shit as we speak.
