Valeria Wardini is a Toronto-based DJ and artist whose story is a testament to unyielding determination. At the age of 13, while most of her peers were still searching for direction, Valeria knew her dream: to become a musician, a dream that remains steadfast nearly two decades later. Valeria's deep connection with techno music was ignited amidst the vibrant techno parties in Beirut, which have since gained worldwide recognition. Her sound is a rich tapestry, spanning nearly three decades of musical influences, from ethereal and heavy melodic techno to downtempo organic techno, infused with a twist of Middle Eastern sounds. Valeria's mixes are not only a reflection of her personal and extensive musical journey but also a testament to resilience and the pursuit of dreams. Her passion and energy during sets inspire others to follow their dreams, as she has relentlessly pursued hers, making her a unique and captivating force in the electronic music scene. Upon relocating to Toronto, Valeria founded RSN8, a platform dedicated to celebrating diverse electronic music, with a particular focus on techno and house. As a resident DJ in RSN8 events, she seamlessly blends her cultural heritage into her melodic techno sets, adding a Middle Eastern touch that captivates her audience.
