Ninajirachi today unveils girl EDM (remixes) – a project which sees some of her favourite producers reinterpret tracks from her May EP girl EDM. LISTEN TO THE REMIXES HERE.

Across the span of six tracks, the remix EP deconstructs and reimagines Nina’s forward-thinking and futuristic take on existing styles of EDM. Unbound by expectation and rich in energy, girl EDM serves as an artistic output that marks an extension of Ninajirachi’s position herself, cultivating a space to open the conversation around dance music produced by girls, dialling in on the new wave moving the needle on their own terms.

With every track deepening this thread across the original EP, the project sees remixes from KAVARI, Bamster, DJmegan23, galen tipton, Miss Jay and dj something, each distinct and inventive in their own form. On piecing the EP together, Ninajirachi shares “These are some of my favourite artists right now and I’m so happy that they’ve come into my world like this. From New York to Glasgow to Kincumber there is nothing but excellence on girl EDM the remixes <3” Plunging into the depths of dark, industrial club music, Ninajirachi and Izzy Camina’s avant-electro house ‘Ninacamina’ receives an experimental bass breakdown from UK DJ and producer KAVARI, of which Nina praises KAVARI as “a really unique and talented producer, there is nobody with sound design like hers. I was so stoked when she tweeted about liking this song. We were both raised by EDM but found careers in more left-field electronic music, the dream pipeline.”

Ninacamina’ also receives another rework, with an elevated 2010’s-inspired electroclash cut from UK-based Bamster. Ecstatic and infectious, Nina shares, “I’m so glad I know about Bamster now because he is so good and only going to get more and more popular.” Next up is LA’s DJmegan23, who transforms the rave-ready MGNA Crrrta collab ‘Angel Music’ into a dreamy glitchy trap gem with cloud rap undertones. Featuring their signature lo-fi, bit-crushed textures, DJmegan23 reveals, “trap and EDM have always been my biggest influences and fusing them together was a blast.” Remixed by Ohio’s galen tipton, the EP’s title track is transformed into a 160 BPM kinetic frenzy, dipping through hard-dance, trap, hyper-pop and closing bardcore monologue to tie it all together, of which in Galen’s words, is “for the wizard and witch girlies for a rowdy night.”

The euphoric ‘Hand on my heart’ is next from Italian producer Miss Jay, which retains the original’s maximal EDM energy with added ballroom crashes and drum breaks. “In 2022 Miss Jay made the most awesome club edit of my song Soma from Second Nature mixtape,” shares Nina. “She DM’d it to me and I’ve played it at almost all of my shows since, way more than my original version. She’s an amazing producer and has had such a crazy output recently; I was so happy when she said yes to doing a remix officially.” Ninajirachi and Kota Banks’ effervescent ‘Ice u out’ rounds the collection with a re-imagination from New York’s dj something. Sitting at the intersection of speed house and euphoric trance, the rework is is described by Ninajirachi as the “prettier sister” of the original track – built on a glossy confection, warm kicks and reverb-drenched pads that dj something explains “is both nostalgic and forward-thinking.”

An artist that “firmly plants her flag as a producer of and for the internet age” (Music Tech), Ninajirachi effortlessly draws from her earliest influences of electronic music to pull apart the seams of hard dance, electro house, trance and pop. Since her debut mixtape Second Nature and and following EPs 4×4, girl EDM and girl EDM (disc 1), she’s picked up praise from the likes of triple j, Crack Magazine, Music Tech, Kaltblut, Metal Magazine, Clash Magazine, Bandcamp, Billboard, Frankie Magazine, Rolling Stone and 10 Magazine among others for her innovation and inclusivity in the wider electronic scene.

Maintaining momentum on the live circuit, she’s toured North America over the last 12 months with festival performances at Lollapalooza, EDC Las Vegas, Hard Summer, Breakaway Festival, Imagine Festival and Red Rocks Amphitheatre, as well as a sold-out Los Angeles headline debut, her own flagship live event Dark Crystal and soon with shows in Japan, China and a tour across the country as part of Laneway Festival 2025.
