DJing since: 1998
Started Remote Emissions in: 1997
Spins:all styles of jungle/drum n bass. I am particularly
attracted to hard, dark sounds, ragga, sexy vocals or combinations of
the three. Basically whatever gives me that spine-tingling feeling when
i listen to it is what I buy.
Best attribute(s): intuitive track selection,
diverse flow
Favorite producers: DJ Rap,RAM, Tech Itch, Dylan
& Loxy, Ray Keith, Dillinja, Jmajik, Vinyl Syndicate Crew, DJ
Shadow, TeeBee, AK1200, Ming & FS, Calibre, Mantra :)
Started DJing because: I felt the energy that
was connecting the DJ and the crowd at parties and thought, "wow,
I really want to create that too." Just being a party kid was not
enough. Plus I am a collector and a music lover so it was an easy fit!
Artistic Goals: To spin records in as many diverse
and interesting places for as many diverse and interesting people as
I can.
Also to learn how to make tracks.
Thing I love most about DJing: seeing people smiling and happy
because of something so seemingly simple as playing records. Hearing
that music myself and feeling the same thing. Someone telling me I made
their night. People telling me what they do when they listen to the
show.
Some things that piss me off about DJing: promoters etc who don't
have their shit together when they book you. Finding out that jealousy
and competitiveness means more than friends. Junglists who pay lipservice
but never come out of hiding to support. Dead nights. Getting shafted
on promised payment. Getting pigeonholed in the ghetto known as "the
Female DJ"

Can't stand: boiled chicken, close talkers and
standers, being in crowds, people who don't look up when they walk,
bad smells, pixellated images and typos, boring music, stupidity, liars,
people who never learn, drunks, organ meat, feeling dizzy, people with
no balls...
