Tmnit Ghide is Eritrean, born and raised in southern Germany. She is co-founder and operator of the Berlin label and platform ALVOZAY and works herself as DJ and music curator. House, Rap, Ghetto Tech, Footwork, Disco, Zouk – you name it – Tmnit aka DJ T.Total believes genres are a myth and merges genres which supposedly do not go together. As a participant of different collectives like Munich’s Afrodiaspora2.0, Vienna’s Bad & Boujee or BlackMovementAustria, she is dedicated to socio-political questions and challenges in different forms – artistic and activist alike. Always careful to build a bridge between the African continent and the Diaspora.
