Mia Koden aka Sancha Ndeko (she/her) is a South London-based South Sudanese and British music producer and DJ. Initially growing up in Ghana and Nigeria soundtracked by her parents' lively stash of music from across the African continent and beyond, her formative years back in the UK had frequent soundsystem pilgrimages to spaces where roots reggae, drum & bass and dubstep could be heard. At some point during her London university days, two rusty Technics 1210’s arrived. Ndeko has since been creating and championing underground electronic music whilst building an arsenal of records traversing many sonic corners of the world.
Having made serious waves within the highly acclaimed duo Sicaria Sound with their penchant for forward-thinking 140BPM, her new alias brings along the same infectious energy and bass-and-percs-heavy sensibilities with some exciting deviations. 2023 first saw a heads-approved debut self-release ‘Hot Take / I Did’ followed by an EP for underground heroes Ilian Tape, both dipping into a familiar palette from her foundational Sicaria Sound days but with a fresh injection of 2-step, steppas dub and electronic realms. The arrival of her second 100% productions mix "Made By Mia Koden Vol. 2" and its accompanying community-choice voted EPs "34U" + "34U.2" in 2024 built more momentum for Ndeko as a forward thinking producer across low-end electronic territories. With praised mixes for Dekmantel, My Analog Journal and Keep Hush - plus with more releases in the pipeline - Ndeko continues to showcase an unpredictable yet cohesive selection of bass music and beyond.
