Long Distance is a monthly show inspired by the travels and nomadic lifestyle of host Dre Ngozi. Inspired by efforts of retaining long-distance relationships and connecting her diasporic roots and inspirations, this show will dial into a range of genres and traverse global borders.
Based in Barreiro, outskirts of Lisbon, but with her Angolan/Congolese roots ever-present, ZenGxrl is a dj blending African sounds with Baile Funk and electronic music. In her first year of performing, she has displayed a consistent growth which has paved the way to international stages with multiple visits to cities like London, Paris, Milan, Barcelona, Marseille, furthermore sharing line up with names such as Soulection, Branko, Dengo Club, Moonshine and 99GINGER.
Dre Ngozi is mostly known as a DJ, but she is also a multidisciplinary artist, host, curator, and producer. She's been cultivating her craft as a versatile artist in every way possible, from acting and media art to DJing and now music production and scoring. Diasporically drenched in black music, she's known for her ability to seamlessly move through different genres, taking crowds on an unexpected journey. She is beyond the definition of an open format DJ. No set is ever the same. Her unique music curation has led her to play in major North American cities, headlining major events for crowds in the thousands and DJing legendary parties worldwide. She’s provided memorable sets for Boiler Room TV, Redbull Sound Select, NXNE and has rocked the decks alongside other DJ heavy-hitters.
