MOOD SPINS
JEENIIUS

Music to me is a wonderland, it’s a whole world I can immerse myself in. In this world I can feel every kind of emotion and I’ll have a soundtrack to go with it - soundtracks even. Music is like an invisible best friend, one that you can only hear and feel. It can be very intimate, to the point where in certain settings, I get pretty invested in seeing how people react to my song selections and feel a sense of pride and joy when it gets a good reception.
Everyone should be introduced to music from a young age, it’s only right

A New Wave Presentation

Mood Spins ft JEENIIUS

For this installment of MOOD SPINS, we have a conversation about music with talented DJ and music connoisseur Jennifer Onwuta, better known as Jeeniius. Jeeniius is a young lady with great promise in the music industry, already DJ'ing sets on popular platforms such as BBC 1Xtra, Balamii and No Signal. She definitely knows her way around the decks and keeps her ear to the Underground, breaking new singles on her own show 'In The Lab' on Tribe Urban radio every Sunday In The Lab. Jeeniius' musical periodic table has every element necessary for a great time, her careful and precise alchemy is perfect for anyone looking to stay ahead of the curve. Also working to get her A&R certification, we can expect her to be a notable name in music in the near future giving young artists an opportunity to grow and blossom.

For this feature, we get into the musical mind of Jeeniius and ask her a few questions on music she would spin based on a particular situation. Scroll down for the full feature.
