Maque is a multidisciplinary artist who believes in the transformative power of pleasure. Her music and DJ sets are a ride for pleasure and perreo, for dancing pegadito and transforming rage into sweat, joy and sexiness. Born and raised in Bolivia, she started blending cumbia, reggaeton and traditional bolivian music sounds into her choreographic performances, to then start rapping, DJ-ing and producing music. Weaving different genres with a strong bass and dembow, her sound is a hypnotizing pelvic/culo summoning. She played at platforms such as Hoe_mies x Keephush, Listen to Berlin Awards, Metarave, Refuge Worldwide, Kiosk Radio, a.o. Her videoclip C4R4COL, which she directed, was part of the Berlin Video Music Awards 2024. In 2023, Maque co-founded CHOKA together with auto_timer. CHOKA is a party and a platform that aims to amplify sounds from the global south. They received support from Music Board Berlin through their Residency program in Hellerau and recently dropped the party itself. Her EP “Baba” produced with auto_timer and Lisa Kida, is expected to be dropped in January 2025.
