When “Ghetto Kraviz” dropped in 2011, no one knew a superstar was about to be born. Nina Kraviz is a Russian producer, DJ and vocalist who’s taken dancefloors across the globe by storm. Born in Irkutsk, Siberia, Russia, Kraviz fell in love with house music while listening to the radio as a young girl. She immediately developed a love for music and singing.

She moved to Moscow to study dentistry while simultaneously racking up gigs as a songstress in Moscow nightclubs. She developed a bit of fame as a nightclub singer, but knew she wanted to produce her own music too. In 2005, Kraviz was accepted to the Red Bull Music Academy in Seattle, Washington.

 The album was a techno compilation with the intent to raise awareness about the social unrest in Colombia. Her latest release, the single “This Time,” features both an original and instrumental version.
