Cashu

Carolina Schutzer aka DJ Cashu is one of the key figures of São Paulo's queer underground electronic music scene. In an attempt to occupy and decentralize the São Paulo scene, DJ Cashu and Carneosso created the Mamba Negra collective, an independent brand which provides a platform for diversified artists. Their street events that usually take place in abandoned and uninhabited locations, such as student and artist squats, push forward the fight for female representation and sexual and gender freedom. The collective was formed in 2013 as a platform for live and organic music and has since solidified into one of São Paulo’s main electronic music parties and expanded to become a Label, Agency and Radio station. ​ Cashu is an active character in São Paulo’s electronic scene, frequently performing at block parties, small venues and independent collectives. She plays often in other states inside Brazil, over then 15 cities and participated in several collectives that work for occupying, decentralizing and hacking the Brazilian night scene. Last years Cashu also performed in other American countries, such as Paraguay, Chile, Colombia and Mexico, USA and Canada. Besides, she was doing a lot of European tours, playing in France, Italy, Germany , Netherlands and also went to India, Egypt and Australia. In the meantime, Cashu will keep producing the iconic Mamba Negra parties at São Paulo and the record label Mamba Rec.
