Mizz Maxine (Melanie Maxine Doucet) has been gaining recognition as one of NB's Diva's on the Decks since she started out in 1999. Having caught the funk bug after moving from northern New Brunswick to live with some of the Maritimes' best DJs in 1998 (David Anthony, Dale Manette, and Randall Cottreau aka Magic Friend), this proved to be an infectious learning experience for her as an aspiring DJ and ever since she has been enthralled by the world of electronic music. Mizz Maxine made her debut at the classic 'Quake' parties in Moncton, N.B, and draws inspiration from artists such as Daft Punk, MSTRKRFT, Justice, Sebastian, DJ Falcon, Cassius, Tommie Sunshine, Olav Basoski, Dimitri from Paris, Collette, Miguel Migs, Alden Brown, Fort Knox Five, Wikked Lester, and her friends from Atlantic Canada, such as Zoo, Steve the Viking, SoundSyster, Sugar, and Isis.She headlined her first party at Saint John's Melt in Spring of 2003 alongside her partner in crime, Dj Sugar, and has been playing at various major festivals, events, and club nights ever since, including the Evolve Festival 2004-2007, Reflexions Cabaret and The Marquee in Halifax, Club Velvet in Montreal, Shoreline Festival 2004 in PEI 2004, Regular rotation with Ultrasound @ Fusion Afterhours 2004-2006, Revolution NYE 2006 party in Moncton, as well as The Paramount Lounge and Club Rouge in Moncton on numerous occasions to name a few.Mizz Maxine's eclectic style, though grounded in house, has evolved throughout the years and always keeps changing, from Deep house beats to funky Breakbeats, Disco, French electro to classic 70's funk, 80s music and rock, this energetic girl knows how to rock the stage with enthusiasm and always thrives on the pure funkiness that underlines her style.
