[eng] I discovered drum n bass in 1998 (while i was more into NY HxC.), through Dj Sti and Delekta in my native town near Toulouse in the south of France. Love at first sigh. I quickly started to move every week-ends in Toulouse to enjoy bigger dnb parties. Then in 2001, my interest for dnb getting stronger and stronger, i decided to be a part of it, and bought my first turntables and vinyls. The following year, i moved to Toulouse to study photography, and started to play there at little gigs and on local radio shows with Keissy, Redeyes and Peyo.
After 3 years of studies in a school of photography, i moved to Paris in 2004 where i quicky began to spin at some gigs. The crowd and promoters, noticed my energy and enthusiasm, and i started to spread my love of dnb around gigs over France and Europe (Spain, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Netherland...) In january 2006, i co-organised the first ''Junglistic sistaz" party in Paris. I work as a photographer and photographer assistant. Since fall 2007, i also spin dubstep.
[fr] J' ai découvert la drum n bass en 1998 lors des soirées "Délice" de Dj Sti et Delekta à Albi, puis de celles du bikini à Toulouse. Le coup de foudre! En 2001, je décide de ne plus être qu' une simple spectatrice et achète ma première paire de platines et mes premiers disques. L’ année suivante, je m installe a Toulouse pour mes études de photographie et mixe régulierement dans des petites soirées et des émissions de radio locales aux cotés de Keissy, Redeyes et Peyo.
Après 3 ans d études a l ETPA (école de photographie), je pars m installer à Paris, où je suis rapidement solicitée pour des soirées. Le public et les promoteurs remarque mon énergie et mon enthousiasme, et je commence à être booker un peu partout en France et ailleurs en Europe (Espagne, Belgique, Allemagne, Pologne, Pays-Bas...) En janvier 2006, je co-organise la premiere soirée "Junglistic Sistaz" à Paris. Je travaille comme photographe et assistante de photographe. Depuis l' automne 2007 je mixe aussi du dubstep.
