INTERVIEW (english version) :
Why becoming a DJ ?
It was a bit coincidence. My boyfriend was a deejay himself and one day we talked about this if he could teach me everything he could. That was what we did, and now I am playing already for 7 years. How do you approach your job ?
I take things very serious. I am working hard to improve myself, stay updated on sounds, collecting all new tunes and try to create more than only deejaying. Like my own radioshows, productions, mix-compilations, album etcetera. Is it difficult being a woman in this electronic music business ?
It is still dominated by men, but things are changing more and more. you see a lot more female deejays nowadays. For me it is not difficult anymore, as I am touring almost for 7 years now, and know a lot of the deejays. Sometimes it has some advantages too, being a girl. What are your favorite dj or musicians ?
Wow, that is not only one person or group. I get inspired by lots of music. It can be Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Coldplay or deejays like Tiesto, Swedish House Mafia, Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, and hundreds more ... Do you think that "image" or "looking" are important for you?
Yes they are important, my image is very close to what I normally am, I cannot play a role to be a different person. I am doing my best to look fresh and natural as much as I can. I think this combination works just fine for me. Are you sensitive to fashion ? What are your favorite brands or designers ?
Yes, I love fashion. It has so much creativity in it. It will always be very important for me. Levi's, Armani, Dolce Gabbana, and the leather jackets from Goosecraft are amazing, I can wear them when I sleep ! Are you a Shopaholic ?
Eh, yes I am. If you give me the chance to shop around the clock, I would be doing that ! But I think a lot of girls have this addiction. What are your plans for short and long terms ?
Short term, my mix-compilation for Spinnin will be released this month, and I am mixing another compilation to come out towards the end of the year. Also I am working on some projects with vocalists for my artist album. This will be really cool! For the rest it is a lot of touring, trying to find places where I haven't been so far. If you were to choose a single piece of music what would it be ?
Beat it. What do you hear from you after a performance ?
Most of the times people loved the show and ask me to come back soon. The holidays are synonymous for you with ... ?
just relaxing, massages, beach, sunshine and shopping !
