Rotterdam-based Yessica Deira, aka Soft Break, is a DJ and multidisciplinary designer, who experiments in re-constructing collective consciousness through design, film, sound, and performance with a strong interest in digital culture and art, electronic music, and the preservation of Dutch, Black, female heritage. Early encounters with her city's jungle, dubstep, and grime scenes are heavily reflected in her eclectic sets that move through gentle vocals, percussion, hard drums, footwork, hip hop, and sub-destroying bass. Expect genre-busting, energy-driven aural narratives, full of unexpected twists and turns. Since graduating from No Shade DJ Mentoring Program 2020 in Berlin, Soft Break has become a vibrant new voice in the club scene of the Netherlands and abroad with a variety of outstanding sets, frequently sharing the stage with her companion Nala Brown. Deira is also a founding member of the collective AMPFEMININE, curating mixes by femme-identifying DJs, booking talent, and hosting events and parties.
