Recently relocated to Naarm/Melbourne, Yi carries the warmth and vibrancy of her roots as a selector from the surf capital of Siargao, Philippines. Her sets weave tropical grooves with edgy funk, playful psychedelia, and driving tribal rhythms — creating dancefloors that are at once deeply moving and joyfully unrestrained. Having shared her sound across the Philippines, Thailand, and China, Yi brings an international flavor wherever she goes. She is eager to bridge cultures through music, building connections with local communities through her infectious, groove-driven energy.

Bridging sonic landscapes from her Chinese roots to global dancefloors, Yi inhabits the in-between — a perpetual free spirit finding resonance in rhythm, stories, and cultural crosscurrents. With roots spanning China, Aotearoa/New Zealand, and now grounded in Naarm/Melbourne, she channels this multiplicity into sets that are both playful and deeply embodied.
Guided by feeling and groove, Yi’s selections flow through pulses of funk, driving tribal rhythms, and playful psychedelica — weaving sounds across genres and geographies. Yi’s journey as a selector began in the island community of Siargao, where she became a regular fixture in the scene in just one year. The island's fun, youthful energy and diverse international community helped shape a unique sound that reflects this vibrant atmosphere.
Yi's love for travel and a keen sensibility for diverse musical elements, absorbed from her experiences across the globe, continue to infuse her sets with a truly international flavor, a passion she's eager to share with every audience.
