Originally from South Sudan, Turkana is now firmly rooted the Ugandan capital's club scene, where she views the dancefloor as »a battleground that feeds on the tension between oppression and liberation.« In her sets, she connects left-field electronics, hard dance, techno, and other sounds from the underground, all with a fierce yet graceful style. Besides Nyege Nyege, she is involved locally in 4manysisters, a women's DJ collective, as well as as the queer-feminist event series Anti-Mass.

Most recently, Turkana has been reaching a wider global audiences with online mixes for the likes of Rinse FM and Never Normal Records. In 2020, she contributed a track to the L'Esprit de Nyege compilation and is currently preparing her debut album for release on Hakuna Kulala.
