Making History: DJ Cyn's Journey with Denver Summit FC

From Soccer Player to DJ: A Full Circle Moment

For DJ Cyn, the recent inaugural home match of Denver Summit FC was not just another gig; it was a culmination of her lifelong love for soccer and a remarkable career in music. With a record-setting crowd of 63,004 fans filling Empower Field at Mile High, Cyn felt the electric energy buzzing through her.

“I feel like I'm made for this,” she told me during our conversation, encapsulating her profound sense of belonging.

Building a Sonic Identity

Growing up in Denver, Cyn was immersed in two worlds: music and soccer. Her early years were spent on the soccer field, where she played for nearly two decades before pivoting to her career as a DJ. Reflecting on this transition, she shared how she always felt a connection to sports through her music:

“I've always wanted to bring the same energy I felt on the soccer field to the turntables.”

A Community Focus

Beyond her role as a performer, Cyn is a passionate advocate for her community. She and her twin sister have created a production company that amplifies voices and events across Denver, championing not only music but also various social causes. “I try to create inclusive spaces where everyone feels welcome,” she explained, reflecting on her upbringing and her parents' diverse heritage from Chile and Palestine.

The Beautiful Game Meets Music

The intersection of soccer and music feels particularly special to DJ Cyn. Speaking to the diverse crowd at the Summit FC game, she noted how music impacts the atmosphere in profound ways:

“At soccer games, you can play everything from Latin music to EDM, and it unites different cultures. It's just beautiful.”

The Journey to the Turntables

Despite her extensive experience as a DJ, Cyn's favorite events remain those tied to athletics. She has lent her sound to occasions ranging from the X Games to the official DJing of the Colorado Spartans arena football team. But the event with Denver Summit FC resonated with her deeply. “This felt different,” she explained, “because it connects back to my roots, to where I came from.”

Memories of the Historic Home Opener

As the music pulsed, Cyn was buoyed by the crowd's energy. She stood at the turntables during a landmark moment, meeting people who shared her passion for the sport. “It was emotional, you know? I had tears before the event just thinking about how far we've come,” she confided. “Being part of this adventure with the team has been one of the most amazing experiences of my life.”

A Vision for the Future

Looking forward, DJ Cyn aims to strengthen her ties to women's sports and push for greater representation in the industry. “I want to keep leveraging my platform to empower women and support underrepresented communities,” she stated. “I believe it's my responsibility to uplift others.”

Conclusion

The celebration at the Denver Summit FC's inaugural match was not just a sporting event; it was a vision of community, passion, and music intertwined. Cyn's journey reflects a commitment to forging connections through sound and advocating for inclusivity in all arenas, proving that the rhythm of life is best lived in harmony.
