The Syrena Saga
Dubbed as one of “electronica’s shining lights” in 2007 by KARMA Magazine, DJ Syrena has been rocking dancefloors in the U.S. and internationally since late 1999. A consummate beat mixer who cut her own groove in the pulsating energy of the Los Angeles nightlife scene, Syrena’s sound is bold, sexy and confident. She is a master mixologist, gifted with a natural ear for music, dividing her time between live performances, and the sanctuary of her recording studio producing tracks for her forthcoming album.
Dirty Electro, punctuated by Breakbeat, Funk, Crunk, Industrial and Rock influences, Booty-shaking House and Deep, Minimal Techno of the melodic variety, comprise her current repertoire, with roots in Drum & Bass that still influence her today. Syrena creates a unique atmosphere with an uncanny ability to play to the crowd while injecting her own personal freshness. Her infectious energy heightens the experience of any party, be it for the jetsetters at a Nikki Beach club to the dusty masses at Burning Man, to Hollywood A-list events or elevating style for a FENDI penthouse party. Her client list reads long with lifestyle connoisseurs and culture-savvy entities.
Well respected by the media and the club scene at large, she has been repeatedly recognized as one of LA’s hottest female DJs by the Los Angeles Times, URB, and Mixer, to name a few. She has performed alongside the likes of Starkillers, Mark Lewis, Sandra Collins, Ravin, Diamond, Tatiana, Jamie Thinnes, LTJ Bukem, Nookie, Reid Speed and Louie Vega. She was hand selected by the Viper Room to be the resident DJ for the raucous “Girl On Girl” Tuesdays featuring the best of female bands and DJs. Her entry into the 2005 BPM Magazine Beauty and The Beats contest placed her as a Top 10 runner up, out of hundreds of entries. Asia’s Jade Channel/TVB Network based a reality TV show, on her experiences as a DJ in 2004, and she is currently the subject of a prominent filmmaker’s documentary on LA female DJs.
She is an active supporter of women working in the electronic music industry, as a contributing writer for SheJay.net and founder of Selectress.com, a website to promote her fellow female colleagues. Renowned collective Femme DJs inducted Syrena into its fold in 2005, boasting an impressive roster of global talent.
It is Syrena's goal to deliver, with her trademark style and grace, a message of inspiration, confidence and passion for the deeper rhythms of life.
we think we are lucky to live these lives we lead. to be a part of the cultural, political and scientific conversation of our time, while able to work one's way through life basically supporting oneself through their art. amazing! frustrating sometimes? yes. unfair sometimes...what isn't? know we are blessed. that is why it is imperative that we speak up. it is our responsibility for being so blessed. - dj monkey
