Cami Layé Okún

Cami Layé Okún is a DJ, selector and radio host hailing from Cuba.

A truly special artist who has played in some of the finest spots around the globe, Cami is renowned for bringing her infectious global sounds and extensive vinyl collection to the dance floor, as well as to the airwaves with her fortnightly ‘INSOLAR’ radio show on NTS.

More recently ‘INSOLAR’ has become her burgeoning event concept, which sees Cami bringing her unique sonic energies and curatorial expertise to festival stages and club takeovers, such as recent outings at Le Guess Who in Utrecht NL, The Pickle Factory in London UK, L’Alimentation Générale in Paris FR, The Flying Duck Glasgow UK, El Kntcky in Mexico City MX and Jolene in Copenhagen.

An artist who is constantly searching for the stories that can be found within music, Cami Layé Okún is a passionate digger of sounds from all around the world, boasting a vinyl collection which includes Cuban disco, forward-thinking Latin electronic, Afro-Caribbean rarities, Tropical Amazonian funky grooves and much more. These adventurous – and often rare – selections are the reason why Cami is becoming one of the most sought-after selectors around.

Musically adept and with an innate intuition for making the dancefloor move, Cami always sets the tone to perfection – whether she’s controlling a peak-time headline club situation, taking the crowd on a journey via a special extended set, or delivering one of her festival performances – which never fail to stand out amongst even the largest of line ups.

In recent times, Cami has performed landmark sets at the likes of Glastonbury Festival UK, GALA London UK, Sacre Paris FR, Jazz:Re:Found Monferrato IT, KALA Albania, MELT Festival DE, Electric Castle RO, Bahidora MX and Astin Barcelona ES.
Looking ahead, Cami has announced exciting plans to expand the ‘INSOLAR’ concept into a record label, as well as continuing to bring her sound to some of the most revered venues and festivals around, such as Lost Village Festival UK, Wakana Reunion ES, Trevarefest NO, Best Kept Secret NL, North Sea Jazz NL, Paradise City BE and many more.
