Bio

Hi all, I’m DJ Lady P. I’ve had an interest in music since the mid 80s and really got into collecting vinyl towards the end of the decade ('87). I've always been a lover of underground music, and listening to pirate radio stations, e.g. Kiss, Lazer & Sub Zero. I would be the one up late at night recording the latest releases on a tape recorder, trying to record shows without the talking. I used to get some of my vinyl from Body Music in North London, Silver Back Records, West London and Reckless Records in Soho to name a few. I first tried mixing when my brother was moving and he gave me his gold-plated Technics 1210s. Then I started helping a friend out doing a Disco night for 5 years at The Spread Eagle in Rayleigh, eventually taking over. Most of my time got taken up sorting out playlists on CDs, so I did not have the time to play my vinyl. However, Disco wasn't really my thing so I did a few private parties instead, which were fun. Then a friend introduced me to TJO and he invited me to his for a mix, and after a half hour "audition" he put me live on Twisted Radio!! He thought I did very well and lent me his spare CDJs as I did not have any. He was full of support and encouragement, urging me to keep at it. A few years down the line and TJO once again gave me an opportunity to play on the radio, this time with HorizonFM.net. I jumped at the chance. I played with Horizon for 3 years, starting with Minimal/Tech House, moving onto Electro and then Progressive House, making some great new friends along the way. Since then I’ve played on a few other radio stations, but nothing as regular. I've also started organizing my own events - “Infected," which is Progressive house and Hard Trance and "Infected Jungle," which is... Jungle!! Hard work but worth it.
