Shakti

Her Name is Shakti, a visionary initiative and sister brand of Deep Playa NYC founded by Daniela, champions the celebration and empowerment of female talent within the electronic music industry and beyond. Shakti is a beacon for inclusivity and a holistic platform embracing DJs, artists, vendors, oracle card readers, healers, and priestess guardians identifying as women while creating an inclusive space for all to explore, express, and evolve.

• Did you know? In 2024, still only about 30% of women are DJs. And less than 10% are producers. Shakti’s mission aims to move the needle and evolve into a more equitable and inclusive world for women DJs and producers.

At the heart of Shakti's mission is the dedication to embody and honor the divine feminine essence, empowering women across the music industry and cultivating spaces infused with Shakti's transformative energy. Shakti is the primal cosmic power of the divine feminine energy that birthed the universe. Harnessing this feminine energy, Shakti unites men and women in a community of deep, powerful dance music lovers under the banner of empowerment, inclusivity, and creative expression.
Shakti’s vision aspires to expand our reach globally, rippling the divine feminine energy of Shakti outward through immersive music experiences, artistic collaborations, and community empowerment initiatives at events, festivals, festival stages, and with Shakti’s very own all female DJ collective and agency. By embracing the essence of the divine feminine, Shakti strives to catalyze a cultural shift towards greater equality, creativity, and interconnectedness, inspiring a cultural shift that resonates with the vibrancy of the divine feminine energy across the planet for the benefit of all beings.
