CQQCHiFRUIT is a Chicago-based multidisciplinary artist of Cuban and Puerto Rican descent, originally from Miami, FL. Co-founder and resident DJ of Chicago-based production company and artist duo TRQPITECA, CQQCHiFRUIT got their start as a DJ by learning from and playing with the Chances Dances collective in 2013. But really, cqqchi’s love of dance music began at an early age when she heard Miami bass, hip hop, freestyle, trance, drum and bass, and other types of dance music broadcasted on Miami’s radio stations, some coming live from night clubs across South Florida. CQQCHiFRUIT’s sound incorporates elements from her Miami roots, Chicago/Midwest residence, and global interest with an emphasis on divas, womxn, queer artists, and BASS from around the world.
