Ninajirachi’s hot streak shows no signs of cooling off.
The DJ, songwriter and electronic music artist adds to her collection the triple j album of the year and Australian music video of the year, two of five awards handed out Wednesday, Nov. 12 by the state-funded youth network.
The 26-year-old musician nabbed the top award for her debut full-length album I Love My Computer (via NLV Records), which beat out a ten-strong shortlist of LPs by the likes of Tame Impala, Mallrat, Spacey Jane, OneFour and others.

Ninajirachi also collected the top music video honor, for “F*** My Computer,” directed by Ball Bass John.
It’s all happening for Ninajirachi, known to her friends and family as Nina Wilson. Just last week, she collected the coveted Australian Music Prize, and its A$50,000 winner’s check, for her studio collection. And she’s a strong chance to add more when the 2025 ARIA Awards roll on next Wednesday, Nov. 19, where she’s competing for a leading eight pointy trophies.
After wrapping up her Australian tour in the early stages of 2026, the rising star will embark on her biggest north American jaunt yet.
