SOHMI is a Korean-American DJ, producer, and vocalist building a world around emotional connection on the dance floor. Known for her versatility, depth, and introspective approach to club music, she creates lasting and memorable experiences that balance movement with meaning.

Over the past several years, SOHMI has built a reputation as a compelling performer with a refined, intentional presence. She has played major festivals including Coachella and OutsideLands, along with clubs and cultural spaces across the U.S.and abroad. Her sets are immersive and narrative-driven, where hypnotic grooves, melodic tension, and her own original pop-inspired vocals come together in a distinctive form of club music that exists in the space between underground dance culture and emotional storytelling.

At the centre of SOHMI’s creative universe is Permission—her independent label and evolving concept. Originally launched as a home for her own releases, Permission has grown into a guiding philosophy: an invitation for us to be who we are and to feel fully, honestly, and without apology. It reflects SOHMI’s belief that dance music, at its best, is a powerful and transformative force—one that can be both personal and profoundly communal.

Looking ahead, Permission is expanding beyond a traditional label model. SOHMI envisions it as a multi-layered ecosystem encompassing releases, curated events, and immersive experiences that prioritise atmosphere, intention, and emotional resonance. These extensions are not about scale for scale’s sake, but about creating spaces—both physical and conceptual—where people feel seen, connected, and present. Whether through intimate club nights, thoughtfully designed event series, or future collaborations, Permission is becoming a framework for how SOHMI invites people to engage with music and with each other.

As an artist, SOHMI resists easy categorisation. Her work is shaped by personal history, cultural identity, and a deep respect for dance music’s roots, while remaining open to evolution and reinvention. She approaches her career with long-term vision, patience, and a commitment to building something that lasts.
