DJ Becka - Electro Mix - Aug 2006

Biography of DJ Becka

Recently ranked as one of the Top 100 Female DJ’s in the world in the Shejay Top 100 Female DJ’s poll, Becka has been exposing her hard hitting techno style to the masses for more than a decade. She has played at events across the US, Europe and South America, alongside artists like Electric Indigo, Adam X, Agent Orange, Steve Stoll, WJ Henze, and Cave just to name a few. Her unique blend of Hard Techno and Electro have left those witnessing her sets, comparing her sound to the likes of German techno dj/producer Chris Liebing.

Some of the places where Becka has played are: Fuse (Brussels, Belgium), Metropolis (Paris, France), Montuno Vibes (Ghent, Belgium), DEMF (Gotham Grooves, ISOS, Nefarious) (Detroit), Female Pressure (Memphis, Tennassee), Tronic Treatment (NYC), Limelight (NYC), the I Love Techno 1st Anniversary party in Caracas, Venezuela, a mini tour in Europe, including dates in Switzerland and Spain, and most recently, her own label night with partner Agent Orange during the 2006 Sonar Festival.

Her determination and ambition have led her to the creation of Gotham City Radio, a partnership with American techno label, Gotham Grooves, and Dutch based website Livesets.com. Airing every Saturday, the show features Becka’s weekly tune selections, along with some of the hottest international and local artists. Artists she’s played host to include Joris Voorn, Bryan Zentz, The Horrorist, along with countless others.

She has also been working in the studio, co-producing tracks with Agent Orange, as well as working on solo projects. Her 1st release produced with Agent Orange, is featured on Gotham Grooves 009-Orange Slices EP. Their 2nd release together, a remix of the track ‘Lifestyle’ by Magnifica is a slowed down sound of a track that has been in the rotation of DJ's Eric Morillo and Sander Kleinenberg. Motivated by her love of the studio and production, Becka recently launched her own label, Gotham City Recordings, in 2006, featuring releases by various international artists along with her own productions.

As a result of the growing demand in Europe, Becka relocated to Spain with partner Agent Orange in the summer of 2006. It is there, that they will introduce their live performance – a collaboration of their styles in a unique new concept of electronic music performance.
