About Me

Born in Switzerland, but originally from Vietnam, Ngoc Lan always had a strong relationship with music. As early as the age of 9, she started to play piano from 1990 to 1997 and took opera lessons at the Conservatory of Music. These classical studies set the foot for her a real interest to different styles of music and after the Conservatory, Ngoc Lan worked with jazz and rock at the BBM 74 School.

In 2002, she lived for 6 months in New York City and had the opportunity to work for the famous hip hop label Rawkus Entertainment as a Media Relations Assistant where she helped promoting the compilation "Soundbombing 3". This experience in the heart of the US hip hop music industry was something unique. Also, during her stay in NYC she fulfilled her passion for black music in singing for The International Gospel Choir in Harlem. Today, she collaborates with Marco Da Mata as a vocal and she developed since 2004 a deep interest in deejaying techniques. Due to her diverse musical background, Ngoc Lan likes spinning records as different as hip hop and deep house. In addition, her particular musical curiosity goes to soul, funk, brokenbeat, nu-soul, jazz and many more...
