Favourite holiday destination?
Back from my days living in London - The Cotswolds. Just a wonderfully cold and beautiful countryside. It feels really untouched and otherworldly to me. My life has tended to be a bit crazy, as a freelancer, going from one thing and one place to the next, so being still in nature is really special for me.
What are the things that bugs you about the DJ scene?
The lack of female representation, and the lack of respect towards female DJs and producers. It’s so obvious that that shouldn’t be the case - it doesn’t need to be spelled out, but it’s there and it’s sickening. Some of the things I hear and read that are said about women in this space both shocks and scares me. I don’t know how much I do to change it, but I do hope to see change, within the DJ scene and beyond, of course.
Name one track that never gets old for you no matter how many times you hear it?
If you could get eternally stuck in one year's music scene, which year would that be?
Woah, I think I’d like to go and live in 1989 in the era of acid house in Manchester. That must have been such a time!
Who do you aspire to and who influenced you the most?
I’m really inspired by all the Aussie female DJs and producers that continue to kill it - BRUX, Nina Las Vegas, Anna Lunoe, Alison Wonderland… the list goes on and on. I listen to their music a lot and find it really inspiring. Alison Wonderland’s ‘Happy Place’, Anna Lunoe’s ‘Bullzeye’, BRUX’s ‘Belong’, and Nina Las Vegas’s ‘I Know How it Goes’ in particular I have played to death!
Any parting thoughts for emerging artists?
If you work hard anything is possible.
