Based in Brooklyn, they hail from the Puerto Rican diaspora in Hartford, CT, and are a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation. They make within the lineages of decolonial uprisings, collections of tiny mirrors at queer clubs, and the precolonial languages of the drum and the braid. mobeyirizarry.com  IG: @lola.machine

The Universe Online relies on disorientation and chopped synth samples which refuse to conform to any standard music structure. You’ll think the CD is scratched but you’ll be completely reminded you are listening to an MP3.   IG: @theuniverseonline
