About

Versatile DJ since 2009.

DJ Ludz, (Ludwe Litha Ntando Runeyi) born in a small town in the Eastern Cape known as Mthatha (former Umtata), her love for house music dates back to the early 90s through listening to a community based radio station in her hometown.

After completing her high school in 2004, she went and studied at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology in Cape Town. This is where she got the opportunity of interacting with a few DJs at the campus and started picturing herself as a DJ as well. The DJs she interacted with never took her seriously when she expressed her desire to become a DJ and the only way she could come close to her dream was to start collecting the music for herself.

In 2007, after one of South Africa's biggest DJs Budda's untimely death, Ludz started a Facebook page known as "Long Live The Revolution Of House Music". This page was dedicated to all the South African DJs whom we've lost over the years and those who are still alive. The page also had weekly updates of events happening in and around the country. This page had maintained good communication between DJs and promoters in the country.

2008 saw a meeting that would change Ludz's life for the better as she finally got to explore her DJing talent. She met a female DJ from Cape Town known as DJ Knox. Theirs was a friendship that blossomed into something beautiful because Knox would drag Ludz along to all her gigs and radio interviews in Cape Town. DJ Knox was taken aback by Ludz's passion for house music that she introduced her to Carbon Blaq, who had CDJs. Ludz would spend countless hours perfecting her djing skills until such time that Knox decided to play alongside her at events.

After completing her studies, Ludz had to find a job as well as further her djing career. In April 2009, she moved to Pretoria, where she got a job offer from Sisco (owner of the successful Multi-Racial Records) as a PR and Marketing Manager. She was also signed as a Multi-Racial DJ. Through her job, Ludz has had the pleasure of playing along big names such as DJ Sisco Umlambo, Mesh Potato, Rowick Deep, Greg Nate, Simza, Malankane, Black Coffee, Vinny Da Vinci, Christos, Soul Sista, Boipelo, Lady Sakhe, China, Claude, Lulo Cafe, Lady DK as well as international DJ Roland Clark.

She's also worked for Red Bull's online radio show "Globalize Yourself Stereo" (which was based in Cape Town), where her love for radio blossomed even more.

She's currently a resident DJ on the show #POWERJams on Power 98.7.

What started as a love for music, ended up being expressed on the decks.
