Disco Auntie is a quarterly NYC dance party and DJ collective run by co-organizers Jasdeep Kang, Melika Dave, and Nadya Agrawal.
With a rotating set list of DJs, Disco Auntie platforms the music of the South Asian diaspora, including all its overlapping cultures and influences. This nightlife space is part of an archiving project that documents the party life of the diaspora and is an extension of Kajal Magazine’s mission to platform creatives in the community. The event belongs to a tradition that extends far back in time and across continents, forward to pioneering parties like Basement Bhangra, and to contemporary events like Papi Juice, Hungama, Discostan, Bubble T, and Discwoman.
