Agent Kari

Agent Kari plays music that serves as a soundtrack to the groovy ’60s lifestyle she’s created for herself with clothing and interior design. On her LuxuriaMusic show, she spins songs that fall under her personal definition of Go Go—upbeat music that makes her want to shake it up in a chaotic and colorful fashion. She loves to dance, and that passion has led her to discover many of her musical selections.

For the past seven years, this host of K.A.O.S a Go-Go has traveled undercover to 1960s-themed parties in Europe, performing/go go dancing under the alias Mata Kari. She digs freakbeat, garage, psychedelic, hammond organ, fuzzy guitar, funky soul, sexy soundtracks, jazzy library music and some kitschy cocktail, and gets especially turned on if any of the above are sung in a foreign tongue.

Philosophy of my radio show: K.A.O.S. a Go-Go merges my psychedelic tunnel vision with the groove of a grown-up teen dance party. The vibe tends to be European, but it shifts, as I’m always searching for new fuel. The recent vibe has been a bit garage-y, as that's what makes me want to get my ya ya's out at the moment.

Five artists LuxuriaMusic listeners will hear on my show: The Paragons, Jacques Da Sylva, Spencer Mac, Virgin Stigma, Gerry Hayes & The Dynamic Brass.

To derive maximum pleasure from my radio show: Put on your Pucci mini-dress, pour yourself some Bierzo red wine and lock up the Barbie Dolls.

When I’m not DJing I can be found: doing yoga, searching for go-go boots on e-Bay & acting.

Secret superpower I possess: It’s a secret, so I can’t tell you, but I’m called the Manic Distractor
