Elkka

British DJ, producer, and label boss Elkka, born Emma Kirby, has become a leading figure in electronic music by infusing her work with emotion, genre-blurring soundscapes, and a commitment to community. Emerging from London’s underground scene, Elkka carved her path as a sound architect blending house, electronica, UK garage, and pop influences, developing a style that is both sophisticated and deeply personal. Elkka first garnered attention in 2016 with her debut single "Try," followed by a steady stream of acclaimed releases on her imprint femme culture, which she co-founded in support of women and LGBTQ+ artists.

Her productions—such as the shimmering "I. Miss. Raving.

" and the infectious "Harmonic Frequencies" EP—demonstrate an ear for both the dancefloor and introspective listening, earning praise from artists like Four Tet, Ben UFO, and Caribou. Notably, her remix of Ela Minus & DJ Python’s “Pájaros en Verano” and regular features on BBC Radio 1 and Rinse FM have solidified her reputation as a tastemaker. As a DJ, Elkka’s sets are known for their joyful fluidity, moving seamlessly across genres to create a communal dancefloor energy.

She has played at globally renowned clubs and festivals, including Glastonbury, Printworks, and Berghain’s Panorama Bar. Alongside her musical priorities, Elkka is a vocal advocate for queer visibility and creative empowerment, using femme culture to elevate underrepresented voices in electronic music. Continually redefining the boundaries of modern club music, Elkka has established herself as a vital artist whose creativity radiates through both her sound and her dedication to fostering a more inclusive scene.
