About Me


<
From the point of being scared towards almost everything, I kinda stole my dj name from my favorite writer a couple years ago and then worked really hard to become something wild... with an alias and a lovely mask printed all over my face - everything sort of worked out rock'n'roll-wise. I began softly with a vision to mix lyically and to tell stories to the crowd, which of course nobody on the dancefloor understood... So from there i've just tried to mix something really arty with something really poppy, rave with candyfloss, straight beat with gay vocal and always a dykesong that are not sing-a-songwritten... I always try to surprice with my set and stageapperance, but still i like to have absoluly nazi control towards the floor...the audience should not believe that i have - let go - +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I have always been really uncool - but in the past years it has been with a recordbag in all of copenhagens huge, gay, small and secret venues, at fashionshows, art-openings, fetish-parties, political manifestions and afterhours - looking sligthly disturbed
- i've played a lot around europe - namedropping some: requiem45 @ Pulp, Barouque and Fleche d'or - Paris. Dachkatine - Zurich (r.i.p). The Tenth Muse @ Lesbos.Paradise @ Marie Leveau and Debaser - Stockholm. DiscObience @ Smålandsnation, Lund. F.U.N club, RIO (r.ip),Kinzo, Grill Royal, Youth Club & Scala - Berlin. Notthing Hills Arts club and Machine @ The rocks -London. The eye @ Nefertiti, Glory Boat - Gotenborg. Inkonst @ Malmoe. Partyzone, Barinn & Sirkus (r.i.p) - Reykavik. Something Tight @ Happy Ending, Ruff Club @ the Annex and Mr. Black - New york city. Indigo - Tokyo. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Im doing some music-supervision for fashion, commercial and film-people: Nampropping Mads Nørgaards Copenhagen film-triologi, Pernille Fisher Christensens "Dansen" + fashionshows for among others Stine Goya, Noir and Day.
