Australian producer and DJ, Nina Wilson, better known as Ninajirachi, has been busy following the breakthrough success of her debut studio album, “I Love My Computer.”
Continuing to ride off the success, Ninajirachi has come back to North America on her return tour, “I Love My Computer and It Loves Me.” Performing the weekend at Brooklyn Steel on Oct. 3 and Oct. 4, Ninajirachi left a lasting impression on her fans before she returned to Australia for a short, but much deserved break.
Originally released on Aug. 8, 2025, “I Love My Computer” provides an innovative, introspective look into the digital world as it enters the electronic music scene.
Based on Ninajirachi’s personal experiences of primarily growing up on the internet, the album explores the relationship between humanity and technology, detailing both its ups and downs.
Even though a year has passed, the album continues to obtain recognition, most recently sweeping the 2026 Australia Independent Records Awards with eight total wins in different categories.
Ninajirachi’s tours for the North American leg have been filled to the brim as shows all over are sold out. Despite the hectic schedule, Ninajirachi has even managed to make an appearance at the All Things Go Music Festival a few days before in Washington, D.C. before returning to her tour.
Accompanying Ninajirachi for Brooklyn Steel was the New York City-based electronic pop and clash duo MGNA Crrrta. The duo consists of Farheen Khan and Ginger Scott who’ve notably collaborated with Ninajirachi before and have built a lasting relationship since.
Being a part of the original formation for “girl EDM,” coined by Nina, it’s no surprise that the pair captivated the crowd as they opened off hits from their recent album, “Beautiful Disaster.”

MGNA Crrrta’s opening remained wild as the elements of electro clash took over the stage with headbanging accompanying the noise. The bass would blare in front as the music soared, leading to an undeniable experience for those up close.
Playing to “I Love My Computer’s” connection to technology, the duo met online as kids before establishing the friendship they hold today. With the growth of the internet, it has provided experiences that could never have been replicated before as everything’s a click away.
Even now, their synergy can be seen throughout their performance, especially playing well to their home crowd of New York City.
Khan and Scott would exchange vocals between songs and accelerate the crowd’s hype through bubble guns, wristbands and close-up serenades in their performance.
As MGNA Crrrta’s set came to a close, the audience could only wait in anticipation as the setup for Nina’s performance began to occur on the stage in front of them.
Soon, the screen behind the DJ controllers began to flicker on and boot up akin to a computer. As the screen’s system initialized, so did the show as the visuals began to change and corrupt.

Although “girl EDM” wasn’t from the album, it was one of the tracks that started it all, leading back to Ninajirachi’s playful desire for women to tackle the male-dominated electronic music scene.
Fighting for inclusivity, “girl EDM” has truly taken shape with more female and queer artists adding their own flair to the now developing culture.
While the original album flows beautifully into each subsequent track from front to back, Ninajirachi would provide remixes and inclusions of other songs she worked on. Providing a new way to listen to her music, fans could only be excited by her experimentation and vision to keep things fresh.
Ninajirachi’s experience as a DJ would play well in her set as she found moments in her music to perfectly mix into and taking previous sets into consideration for her own use. Audiences could feel influences from big names such as Porter Robinson, Madeon and umru, showing just how far she’s grown.
While Ninajirachi has been shy before to present her art, her confidence has only grown as she showed brilliant showmanship throughout the concert. Leading the crowd through chants and cheer, the joy on her face was infectious with the audience only continuing to return the same energy.
One of the biggest components that elevated the concert were Ninajirachi’s visualizers. Each one would blow the performance away as it created a new atmosphere that perfectly fit each song.
Pictures regrettably don’t provide justice to the experience as there were just too many individual pieces to feature and take in as scenes constantly changed and evolved.
Through digitalizations of real-world elements, artwork created by fans, references to programming, computer workflow or even snippets of music videos, Ninajirachi managed to capture the vibe every time.
Lyrics would even be broadcasted onto screens, providing a perfect interactive experience for fans to unite and sing along with their favorite artist.

Finishing her set with one of her biggest hits, “F–k My Computer,” Nina wished the crowd a safe trip home. Leaving the stage, the visuals would turn to black and the lights turned back on.
However, the crowd couldn’t contain their excitement as they chanted “One more song!”
Dashing back onto stage, Ninajirachi would come back and finish off with an unforgettable encore, reminiscing of her first concerts in New York City. Including remixes of “iPod Touch,” “WannaCry,” “Hypervisor” and “F–k My Computer,” Ninajirachi would rock the audience one last time.
Even as Ninajirachi finishes the first part of her tour for “I Love My Computer and It Loves Me” in New York City, fans should be excited to expect more as she only seems to become increasingly prominent in the mainstream.
Recently announcing a new line up for festivals she’s participating in for 2027, Ninajirachi shows no chance of slowing down anytime soon as she's playing with big hits such as Tame Impala, Charli XCX, Skrillex and countless others.
For those into electronic music and are willing to have a blast with something fun and new, “I Love My Computer” is the perfect album to jump into front-to-back.
Ninajirachi’s “I Love My Computer and It Loves Me” tour will continue on Nov. 11 at the Fonda in Los Angeles with tickets unfortunately being sold out for the rest of the tour.
