Lady Duracell, DJ's Interests
General
Discovering new music, and finding that little gem that I was looking for forever! DJ-ing to huge crowds, and the smallest of venues and feeding off the vibes coming from the dancefloors. Enjoying the journey that DJ-ing and house music has taken me to. The places I've played in, the people I've met along the way. The journey continues... x
Music
House. All of it. It's a way of life.

"In the beginning, there was Jack. And Jack had a groove. And from this groove came the groove of all grooves. And while one day viciously throwing down on his box, Jack boldly declared, 'Let there be House!' And House music was born. I am, you see. I am the creator. And this is my House. And in my House there is only House music. But I am not so selfish, because once you've entered my House, it then becomes our House, and our House music. And you see, no one man owns House, because house music is a universal language spoken and understood by all. You see, House is a feeling, that no one can understand really, unless you're deep into the vibe of House. House is an uncontrollable desire to Jack your body. And as I told ya before, this is our house, and our House music."

Heroes
People who have a vision and have the courage to really go for it, overcoming all the obstacles life throws at them.
Anyone that realises that to make a change in your life, it won't just happen, you have to make it happen, no-one can do it but you.
All the dedicated real house soldiers... you know, those that are in it for the right reasons, for the love of the music.
I'm a female DJ who specialises in house music, who has been playing since '99, and based in London, UK. 2004 and I was voted 4th Best Female DJ in the UK by the People's Choice Awards, the only exclusively house DJ in the top 10. In '06 I was voted 57th worldwide and 15th UK female DJ in a poll on shejay.net. Amazing, since I had never played outside of the UK! The same year I went on to play at the new Love Club in Ibiza which was like coming home for me. Ibiza was where I had made the decision to teach myself to mix, I did, and the rest is her-story.
I've played at most of London's top venues including Koko, Ministry of Sound, Turnmills, Pacha (London), Canvas, Cross, Herbal, Sin, Hidden, and so many more.. in fact, all the best parties. I currently have a bi-monthly residency at Herbal for Bobby & Steve's party. For a full list of previous events, checkout my website www.ladyduracell.co.uk
I live and breathe house music, and my tastes are very varied. From deep, soulful, west coast, latin, tech, minimal, funky, electro, tribal right through to the tuffer side of things. Deep & soulful house is where my heart is, but I love & play house right across the board, always keeping an open mind to quality music.
Queen of Funk Productions
My first production 'Es Paradis' Queen Of Funk Orig. Latin Vibe Mix is a latin flavoured firing house track, and is lighting up the dancefloor's of London's airwaves & clubs. The remix is an uplifting tribal mix by myself, Queen of Funk & Lucarelli on the buttons this time. Now available from www.ultimatedancemusic.co.uk www.bm-soho.com www.knowhowrecords.com and HMV (Oxford Street)where it reached No. 9 in their in-house chart. I've recently added a new music myspace profile for my productions.

Queen of Funk Presents Get Lifted
I'm a resident for a deep & soulful house night - 'Get Lifted'. I love this party as I get to play the music I love, to like-minded people. The launch party was at Bar NV, and the second was in conjunction with My Fairytale @ Pacha, London which was a really memorable night.
Get Lifted hosted the top floor of Koko in September '07 for Roger Sanchez' Release Yourself night, which was off the wall.. and with the Swedish House Mafia, Axwell, Ingrosso, Angello at Koko and had two amazing parties at The Whitehouse in September and October '07, and Pacha in December.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who believes that HOUSE MUSIC is not a passing phase, it's part of who you are.. and anyone that's pushing house music forward, in a positive way.♥♥♥
Please note though, if you spam myspace with your flyer's and no message - I will delete! :)
