DigitalGRL Style: UK Garage Production: MaXxium TraXx, LELiPHENT. Home Town: Denver, CO

 

 

DigitalGRL or more commonly known to her friends as "Digi" is a native to Denver, Colorado. Growing up in the "beginning of it all" she has been a huge supporter of the "rave scene" since she was introduced to it in 1992. You probably would have known her better as a dancer back in those days as she was always tearing up the floors and battling people in the dance circles, keeping the energy at parties going. She was always into breakbeats, jungle, house...anything that was funky and made her feel like dancing.

In 1998 she tried her hand at mixing records but never really took it seriously as she was busy singing in a band at that time. Her mentor and best friend Stefny Winter (Sister NYC) urged her to just do it! In 1999 after about 3 months of serious dedication and lots of practice Digi was given the opportunity to play at Herb's Hideout on Wednesday nights. All due to an Australian DJ friend who was out visiting. He ended up talking her up so much that after just 3 months of practice she was thrown to the lions.

Digi started playing breakbeats for the dancers which were her first and foremost passion of life. Word got around and soon Digi started playing breaks weekly as a resident of Audio Aerosol at Herb's. About a year later she was introduced to 2step by DJ Love (303 collective) and it was all over from there. She fell so madly in love with this genre of music. Not only was it breakbeats but it had elements of jungle, dancehall, rnb, and more than anything it was what not many other DJ's were playing anywhere else. Soon after she was a resident at Tracks 2000, Maximillians, The Foxhole, Enigma Afterhours, and has headlined a stage at the last Summer Love Fest in Texas.

Her style has now progressed into all forms of UK Garage. Four to the Floor, 2step, breakstep, speed garage and even a little grime at times. Her wicked smile and constant energy are sure to bring life to any party.

Currently she is working on Sister Mile High. A DJ organization dedicated to female DJ talent in Denver. She is also a part of MaXxium TraXx and LELiPHENT.
