First-generation Eritrean-Canadian Ayy Den was raised on a diet of hip-hop, reggae, dancehall, soul-pop and house music. Combining these far-reaching influences with the exciting sounds of UK bassgenres, Funky, Garage and Dubstep, Ayy Den naturally graduated from passionate listener to radio host and now phenomenal DJ and producer. While her reach grows, she stays true to her overall mission of representing the sounds she grew up loving and championing progressive underground artists on the rise.
