‘I Feel Like I’m Made for This’: DJ Cyn on Providing the Soundscape for Denver Summit FC’s Historic Inaugural Home Match

DJ Cyn was providing the soundtrack for the big day, which was a full circle moment for her. Born Cynthia Mardones, she is a Denver native who has been in the music game for two decades. But before finding her lane on the turntables, she was playing a different game: soccer.

DJ Cyn is all about community and empowering others. She and her twin sister have a production company that provides sound for events across the city, which makes it easy for her to make an impact.

Her parents are both from Chile and she has Palestinian heritage. Her background informs her love for soccer and gives her work as a DJ purpose. She has performed across the country and even places as far away as Bangkok.

Just as widespread is her range, as she’s supported sets for acts from Usher, Miguel, and Ashanti to Busta Rhymes, Twista, and Doja Cat and even David Foster, Major Lazer, and Reba McEntire. “I try to be as versatile as possible,” she said. She also has significant sports events on her resume, including the X Games and a role as the official DJ for the Colorado Spartans arena football team.
