Silva Snipa is definitely a notable figure in driving the resurgence of the old skool sound, whilst being an inspiration for other young women in drum & bass and beyond. Her sound, style and skill captures the excitement of retired ravers and younger generations alike.
Now in her third year of DJing out live and on radio with a sweeping record collection, Silva Snipa is making waves in the scene with a residency on newly relaunched Kool FM and having played at Fabric and for Metalheadz this year. Having been massively influenced by the pirate radio sets that sparked her love for old skool D&B, she fell into mixing vinyl whilst sharing a collective love for those sounds with her friends. Originally from the outskirts of London in Croydon, Silva Snipa has been making a name for herself over the last few years within the underground scene mixing predominantly drum & bass records from the late ‘90s and early ‘00s, with some Jungle and UKG here and there.
