    Lisa Smith, performing as Noncompliant and formerly known as DJ Shiva, is an American DJ and record producer.

    Life

    [edit]

    Smith is originally from Evansville, Indiana.[1] She moved to Indianapolis in 1996.[2]

    Career

    [edit]

    Smith's current stage name is derived from the comic Bitch Planet, in which women who fail to observe patriarchal rules are termed "noncompliant".[2][3] She adopted the moniker in 2017,[1] and has said that it is "very much based in queerness and feminism".[4] Smith has spoken in favor of equality for women in electronic music.[1]

    Smith has performed sets at Berghain's Panorama Bar, on UK radio station Rinse FM, and at Detroit's Movement electronic music festival.[1][4]

    Although primarily a DJ, Smith released an original EP titled More Than Surviving in 2017. A reviewer for Resident Advisor observed that, although described as techno, More Than Surviving has house influences.[5] Smith also contributed a single titled "Femslash" to a 2017 compilation, described as a "loopy acid cut with a sense of humor".[6]

    As of 2018, she had been performing as a DJ for approximately 20 years.[7] She purchased her first set of turntables in 1995.[1]
