DJ_Dave is the performing alias of Sarah Davis, a New York based electronic artist working at the forefront of live coding and the algorave movement. Rather than mixing prerecorded tracks, she builds rhythms, basslines, and melodies in real time by writing code in environments such as Sonic Pi and Strudel, often projecting her screen so audiences can watch the music take shape. Her catalog includes tracks like Castles, Bloom, and Hard Refresh that pair algorithmic construction with pop and club sensibilities. She is closely tied to the NYC experimental and hyperpop adjacent electronic scene and has shared stages and toured with artists including Hannah Diamond. Her performances have reached festival, museum, and university stages through her Always Learning Tour, helping bring a once niche practice to broader dance audiences.
