Kozee



Biography of Kozee

Real name / Marina Patino
Moniker(s) / Kozee, Clutches

Undoubtedly the most well know female for Dubstep and now bass music in the States, Kozee attributes her love affair with music early; at the age of 7, she compiled her first mixtapes, inadvertently on the path towards creating her own music one day. It was In the early 90’s she started collecting jazz, hip-hop, and jungle vinyl and in building mixtapes she landed an opening slot for DJ Maseo of De La Soul .

With the insurgence of Grime that had made its way to the US in 2004 and 2005 Kozee quickly became a fan. She compiled her first Dubstep mix in June 2006, had a successful three year relationship with Redline starting in 2006, she toured UK and Sweden in 2008, was a featured artist on one of the biggest tunes of 2009 (Crack, DZ feat Kozee), and recently San Francisco Weekly named Kozee one of four’ Dubstep Ambassadors’ of San Francisco.

Currently, Kozee draws inspiration from multi-genera bass music such as: UK Funky/UK Bass, Bassline, Tropical, Juke, Garage, and Post-Dubstep sounds.

She has released with Badman Press , Badman Digital, and Hot N Heavy Recordings in 2010 and has coming out blazing strong with two releases in January 2011 with Audio Doughnuts and Slit Jockey.
At the moment Kozee is currently taking US Domestic dj gigs and will continue to until August 2011.



“As the leading lady in dubstep, you killed it last night. Never have I seen a female dj perform with such confidence and precision, mad style and attitude. Seriously more ladies need to realize that we don't have to be sexual and sexy to be successful in the dj world. It’s too bad your set was short, but in my mind you were 100 times then any Uk/Usa/Canadian dubstep artist that has graced Calgarian ears.”
-Peyote De Leon
