Just posted my @coachella Sahara stage DJ set, listen at the link in bio! ๐๐ง๐ถโก๏ธ
For my opening set at Coachellaโs Sahara stage this year, I picked only the cream of the crop house remixes to take festival goers through a journey from 1960s- 1990s classic funk, disco, techno, and pop tunes that I grew up listening to on radio stations like KIIS 102.7 in Los Angeles, especially highlighting the legendary Black female vocalists and iconic tracks from the 90s that helped make dance music what it is today. The result was a funky, nostalgic and fun start at the Sahara stage as people started to gather for the day. Thanks to all the talented creators of these tunes, everyone behind the scenes who helped make this moment happen and everyone who came out and vibed to the set! Up on #mixcloud now for your weekend listening ๐

Festival Filipiniana ๐ชญ๐๐ผHad to squad up with my Pinay sisters @vanescessary and @jewelsales for BINI's show at Coachella ๐ Can you believe @vanescessary whipped up this butterfly top at @coachellaartstudios out of @goodwill donations?! I was wearing an outfit made of fllour sacks I got from Nautilus in Boracay with @kahoykollection sunglasses and @jewelsales was fresh off figure modeling at the art studios! swipe left for the slightly more suplada (serious) look ๐ and a peek at @bini_ph performance, the first ever by a Filipino group at @coachella . When the cameras panned to the titas singing at the front row we were all CRYING ๐ญ ๐ต๐ญโค๏ธ๐๐ซถ๐ป glad we got to share this moment together with the extended craft fam squad!
MAHAL KITA ๐ For my set at Coachella I wore a top by a talented Filipino designer @gloriousdias ๐ฅฐ It's a basketball jersey made of repurposed fabric that says "Mahal Kita" which means "I love you" in Tagalog โค๏ธ Happy to represent for Filipinos at one of the biggest festivals in the world!

Spotted at @coachella ๐ซฃ
DJ @gingeeworld wore one of our MKHK Kumot Jerseys for her #Coachella2026 set at the Sahara Stage! Canโt believe we first met in 2017 when I shot and styled her for a โ9 Musesโ photo series inspired by โSiyam na Diwata ng Sining/Nine Muses of the Artsโ sculpture by Napoleon Abueva at UP Diliman. ๐
SO MUCH FUN at @coachellaartstudios ๐๐ ๐ซถ๐ป Reppin Filipino style & wearing a top I made there the day before ๐
