Gingee (Marjorie Light) is a DJ, producer and vocalist from Los Angeles. DJing and producing since 2003, she is known for her unique take on electronic music, which blends elements of global bass, world music, and hip hop. Her work is a reflection of the sounds and cultures she has been exposed to growing up in Los Angeles as well as the musical world of her ancestors and beyond. From the percussive rhythms of instruments such as the Filipino Kulintang, kettle drum, and cowbells, to synths, turntables and rapping, she seeks to speak the language of music and poetry and use it to communicate a message of empowerment and celebration.
She has performed at Coachella, SXSW, Burning Man, Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture, Cumbiasazo, Malasimbo Festival, Magic Garage (an art and music festival she founded) and is part of the international global bass community. She has been featured on KPFK, Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly, BBC Radio, and KCET.
