DJ Genesis has been moving and shaking in the underground music scene for many years. Her musical beginnings are deeply rooted in classical and jazz music where she was trained since the age of 7 to play the flute. She later moved on to learn classical piano, and valve trombone.
During her time in the United States Air Force Monica was stationed in Washington D.C. and met fellow Airman and turntablist "DJ Rags" (DMC West Coast Champion 1998) who taught her the basics of djing. After leaving the military in 1997 Monica decided to take DJing more seriously, and started a weekly residency DJing at open mic nights at the Kaffa House. After that two ladies named Aoesi and Clark invited her to spin for their weekly residency at State of the Union where Monica aka Genesis would spin jungle and house music. This night eventually became a weekly residency alongside Sam The Man Burns the night was called Underground Soul Solution. Underground Soul Solution Sunday's became a legendary house night in D.C. that ran for over 5 years, and featured such guests as Colonel Abrams, Bryan Gee (V Recordings), and Ultra Nate.
One of her early accomplishments in the dance music scene was an all-female DJ tour called "Set It Off," that featured DJs from Chicago, NY, and Houston, that Genesis conceptualized, promoted and managed. Co-headliners Heather Heart and DJ Heather collaborated in this historical tour, billed as the "first ever female DJ tour to hit the US,". This tour hit clubs in Toronto, San Jose, Houston, Las Vegas, Chicago, D.C. Portland and Seattle. In addition, she also was one of the few female DJs invited to play at the 2001 Detroit Electronic Music Fest (DEMF), as well as at the 2003 & 2004 Movement Festival; She is the only woman featured on the 2004 Movement Festival Compilation. Her excellent mixing skills and tenacious studio work earned her a slot in the 2003 Red Bull Music Academy in Cape Town South Africa. Genesis is one of 60 who were chosen from over 20,000 applicants globally.
Behind the scenes Monica is a well known graphic and website designer, club promoter, you name it... She worked for 3 years for the Submerge crew and Underground Resistance as their webmaster. In 2005 she worked behind the scenes alongside Kevin Saunderson at the Fuse-In Festival and took the role as Artist Relations Director she assisted in booking almost 160 artists including acts such as Mos Def, Redman, Slum Village and others. Currently she runs her own Graphic Design/Webdesign company called Innercity Creative Group LLC.

Her release on Dynamite Soul, "Back In The Middle," caught the attention of the global dance music media and was highlighted for its deep house / neo-soul flavor in magazines like iDJ, XLR8R, Jockeyslut and many more. Currently, Genesis is working on her first full-length album.

The ancient Gnosis*jewel* Now that ”inmost centre” is, in the teaching of the ancient Gnosis. The real self; the eternal, immortal, divine self which is one with the universal self, commonly called God. Thus the root teaching of this ancient Wisdom at all times has been the divine nature of Man; and what was taught in the inner schools of the mysteries—a teaching which can still be obtained—--was the method of achieving this supreme knowledge in a practical manner; that is to say the attainment of god-like character and powers. Every man is potentially a god, however feeble may be his powers at the present time. At root he is God.

1 John 4:6We are [children] of God. Whoever is learning to know God [progressively to perceive, recognize, and understand God by observation and experience, and to [e]get an ever-clearer knowledge of Him] listens to us; and he who is not of God does not listen or pay attention to us. By this we know (recognize) the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of error. 7Beloved, let us love one another, for love is (springs) from God; and he who loves [his fellowmen] is begotten (born) of God and is coming [progressively] to know and understand God [to perceive and recognize and get a better and clearer knowledge of Him].8He who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love.9In this the love of God was made manifest (displayed) where we are concerned: in that God sent His Son, the only begotten or [f]unique [Son], into the world so that we might live through Him. 10In this is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins.11Beloved, if God loved us so [very much], we also ought to love 1 another.12No man has at any time [yet] seen God. But if we love one another, God abides (lives and remains) in us and His love (that love which is essentially His) is brought to completion (to its full maturity, runs its full course, is perfected) in us!13By this we come to know (perceive, recognize, and understand) that we abide (live and remain) in Him and He in us: because He has given (imparted) to us of His [Holy] Spirit.14And [besides] we ourselves have seen (have deliberately and steadfastly contemplated) and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son [as the] Savior of the world. 15Anyone who confesses (acknowledges, owns) that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides (lives, makes His home) in him and he [abides, lives, makes his home] in God. Stay blessed my friend 1!
