By day a jazz musician and night a DJ in San Francisco, throwing underground and monthly parties at warehouses & 222 hyde street she couldn’t deny the pulsating sounds drifting out of Europe.   After graduating from Pyramind in San Francisco studying Audio Engineering - In 2012, a haphazard trip to Europe for inspiration pulled her in so deep, she fell in love with the city of Berlin and its seasoned party culture, historical roots, and liberal mindsets - so she stayed. Currently residing in Berlin, she’s spent her time crafting her productions in her music studio. "A surging force of sonic exploration and a true up-and-coming in Berlin's techno scene, the formerly Bay Area-based artist Jamaica Suk continues to exercise a passion for techno while contributing new and exciting music for the club culture that she has come to know and love in Germany's capital. A trained musician and student of jazz, Jamaica's extensive musical background originally lead her towards a love of shoegaze and psychedelic rock. An eventual trip to Berlin changed her musical outlook drastically and Jamaica began to develop a love for the machine that would soon consume her. Originally just visiting, Jamaica decided to leave the West Coast of the United States permanently and took up residency in one of the techno capitals of the world (the only other being Detroit of course)." - xlr8r
