techno scene, working it at the infamous Mettle night, Pixelate parties, =
and other big techno events. Zuza's also a member of the Chicks Dig It =
collective, and has toured extensively throughout Canada's West Coast, =
Southern Ontario, Montreal, and overseas in Austria, Bratislava, Nitra, =
and Malta. Not only is she a dope beat conducter, but she's also a tres =
