Not Your Average House Wife

Cape Town based DJ and music selector Not Your Average House Wife has carved out her own space within South Africa’s electronic music scene through a love of house, disco and the culture surrounding the dancefloor. Known for her playful persona and infectious energy, Housewife brings a warm and eclectic approach to her sets, combining carefully selected grooves with a strong sense of musical personality.

Her journey into DJing grew from years spent immersed in the South African music scene, dancing, listening and connecting with the sounds around her before stepping behind the decks herself. During lockdown, she used the downtime to develop her skills and shape a sound of her own, eventually emerging with a style rooted in house and disco while remaining open to the wider spectrum of electronic music.

“Not your average housewife. Married to the house.”

Housewife has since become a familiar presence across Cape Town’s electronic music community, with performances and recorded sets connected to events including Bazique, AfrikaBurn and Wolfkop Weekender. Her sets reflect a genuine love for the dancefloor, moving through funky house grooves, disco influences and playful electronic sounds with an emphasis on energy, connection and good times.

Beyond the booth, Housewife continues to build her identity through music and community, using her distinctive character and carefully selected sounds to create memorable moments wherever she plays. Whether behind the decks at a festival, club or intimate gathering, she brings her own interpretation of house music to the floor.

With an ever growing collection of mixes and performances, Not Your Average House Wife is continuing to establish herself as one of Cape Town’s playful and distinctive house music selectors.
