A true explorer of sound, Donna Leake approaches music as both a personal journey and a shared experience. As a resident DJ at London’s renowned Brilliant Corners, she has helped redefine how people listen, blending deep musical curiosity with an appreciation for high-fidelity sound. Unbound by genre or tempo, her vinyl only sets weave through jazz in all its forms—psychedelic, spiritual—while effortlessly crossing into traditional African music, global percussions, Latin, dub and roots.

Leake’s passion for music goes beyond just playing records; it’s about creating moments. Her curated NTS Radio show highlights her intuitive and deeply personal approach to selection, offering listeners a window into the emotions that shape her sets. Whether guiding a room through a meditative listening session or keeping dancers on their toes with unexpected turns, she invites audiences to connect, reflect, and move.
