Justė: From Lithuania to the World, Crafting Her Own ‘World of Wonders’
Justė’s debut single, World of Wonders, is as much a manifesto as a track.
When Justė moved from Lithuania to Denmark at a young age, she didn’t know a word of the language. It could have been isolating, even intimidating, but for her it became formative.
“I gained a lot of self-confidence and strength. Now it feels like I can be in any situation, around all kinds of people, and in any environment and still fit in and feel like myself,” she reflects, a quiet confidence in her voice.
Music became her constant companion during moments of challenge. She remembers the days working in a warehouse and having long shift hours.
“I clearly remember myself doing really monotonic work and repeating it all over again every day. Having my headphones in my ears and listening to my favorite music helped me, as the lyrics were saying things like ‘Stay headstrong to make it through…’ (from Ghost Rider x Ranji - Garden). It helped me keep going.”
Finding the Path
Though she had long felt a pull toward DJing and producing, it wasn’t until meeting the ii team that her ambitions could take shape.
“It is a long time ago, that I had the feeling that I wanted to become a DJ and a producer, but it wasn’t until I met the ii team, that I got a real chance to actually focus on building a career,” she recalls.
Her sound blends melodic techno with psy-trance influences, drawing from artists like Neelix, Ghost Rider, Ranji, Symphonix, and Franky Wah. Spirituality informs her approach as much as technique. She also explores other genres, notably dipping into speed garage with the release of her recent release ‘Turn The Lights Off’ together with Jaxstyle & Jon. Justė doesn’t work with labels, more with feeling behind the music, which in turn relates to her view on mindfulness.
“Yes, I am a spiritual person. I love to play music that opens the soul and mind,” she says. It’s a philosophy that’s as audible in her productions as it is visible in her stage presence.
Debut Single: ‘World of Wonders’
Justė’s debut single, World of Wonders, is as much a manifesto as a track.
“With this track I wanted to send a message to people that everyone is the creator of their own reality, and for that reason, we can all create and live in our own world of wonders,” she explains.
Cinematic melodies meet driving drops, balancing emotion with energy:
“For the toplines I love a mix of singing and spoken words, and I want the productions to be dynamic, interesting, and emotional. At the moment I really like working with the contrasts in tech trance and big harmonious sounds.”
Visuals are central to her live identity. Partnering with AI production company Viisuals, she translates sound into immersive experiences.
“AI enables you to bring your artistic and visual vision to life a lot faster and a lot more on point then ever before. I find the connection between visuals and music a key part of my artist project”, she says.
Live and Unleashed
Her first major live moment came at Generator Festival, performing to a crowd of 3,000 people. Nerves were natural, but the stage quickly became her domain.
“The day before my first show I felt a bit stressed of course, but once I went on the stage, I felt so comfortable. I loved the tracks that I was mixing, and I have had this burning wish inside me for so long, to show my music for to an audience which finally came true. It was incredible.”
Her evolution from “ugly duckling to swan” isn’t just metaphorical.
“I had a profession and a life that I didn’t belong in, but on my musical journey I started discovering myself and the hope and belief in an existence so much more meaningful started growing with every step I took. Going on stage was like spreading my wings for the first time and releasing all the energy I kept inside for years.”
Looking Ahead
Justė’s next steps are focused on growth and connection.
“It is very simple; I want to create and release a lot more music, and play a lot of shows in Denmark, and hopefully start to perform international shows also,” she says, the determination in her voice unmistakable.
Her advice to emerging DJs and producers is grounded in patience and persistence:
“I want to say to everyone that no matter how hard life seems sometimes there is always a way out. Being in a calm state knowing that the right things are coming into your way and working hard for it every day. This is what brings the results of the goals that you are chasing for…”
From long late-night shifts in the warehouse to festival stages, Justė is proving that resilience, self-belief, and music can transform not just a career, but a life — one track, one set, one “world of wonders” at a time.
