Shayda Velasco, better known as "Shyda," is a Miami based DJ and producer known for her style of blending various electronic genres together such as electro/breaks with hard and acidic techno, and trance. Resulting in “ravey” and high-energy journeys throughout her sets. With a long history of musical influence due to her family of musicians, Shyda's passion for music started when she was a kid in L.A and was constantly surrounded by it ever since. In 2008, Shyda moved to Barcelona, Spain where she was introduced to the European rave culture primarily consisting of Drum & Bass music as well as Trance, Psy-trance, and Hardstyle. A few years later life brought her back to Miami where she worked in the night life at some of the best and most iconic clubs in the scene, where she fell even deeper into her love for electronic music. Shyda first made her mark in the Miami scene by being the closing resident of Techno collective Ground Zero as well as being a partner in opening up an underground club that focused on Techno playing every weekend as a resident, and she can still be found playing with other collectives throughout the city. Shyda is also a resident and host for The Advent's TechnoClub-Net, where she invites fellow artists to play with her and share the virtual experience with DJs from across the globe.
