Portrait of Khenya

Khenya

Khenya is a dynamic DJ known for weaving global dance rhythms with fresh, boundary-pushing sounds. Originally from Nairobi, Khenya began experimenting with music production and mixing as a teenager, channeling influences ranging from Afro-house and amapiano to deep techno and soulful electronica. Over the years, Khenya has built a reputation for electrifying live sets, performing at renowned festivals across Africa and Europe, and sharing stages with some of the industry’s most innovative acts.

Khenya’s productions capture a unique fusion of African percussion, melodic synthwork, and driving basslines, earning support from international tastemakers and radio play on major platforms. Beyond the decks, Khenya is an advocate for creative inclusion, mentoring young talent and curating events that spotlight underrepresented voices in the music scene. Constantly evolving and unafraid to experiment, Khenya continues to redefine what it means to move a crowd, both on the dancefloor and through bold, original releases.
