Kini Rao is a Mumbai‑based DJ, electronic music producer, and visual artist known for his lush, ambient‑infused live shows and genre‑crossing productions. Born and raised in Goa, Kini moved to Mumbai to pursue music, drawing inspiration from ambient, techno, downtempo, and Indian classical traditions. His debut releases, self‑published under his own label, helped define a dreamy aesthetic built around melodic synths, pedal steel guitars, and field recordings of coastal soundscapes. As a live performer, he crafts immersive, atmospheric sets that evoke slowed urban environments or late‑night introspection. Kini has shared stages with leading electronic artists at festivals and curated intimate showcases across India. His collaborations span visual artists and traditional instrumentalists, resulting in multidisciplinary experiences that blur the lines between sound and memory. With a firm DIY ethos and artistic vision, Kini Rao remains a growing voice in India’s ambient electronica scene, creating music that invites quiet reflection and transportive moods.
