NOT DJ. PLAY IT SIK. PLAY IT HARD. PLAY IT LOUD.

#PLUR

With over a decade-and-a-half behind the turntables, lifelong music-addict and audiophile Miss Michaela has gained regional and international notoriety within the underground dance community and beyond. This versatile DJ has blended classically trained musicianship with edgy, electronic experimentation in the genres of house, disco, techno, new-wave, industrial, drum-n-bass, hip-hop, soul and down-tempo. Born and raised in Kansas City, as Michaela White - she honed her craft, held several residencies and established herself as one of the Midwest’s premiere live DJ and polished producers. After relocating to Chicago in 2002, she’s graced the wheels of every major Chicago club: Smartbar, Double Door, Zentra, Funky Buddha, Debonair, Green Dolphin Street, Sound-bar, Lava, Sub-T, Abbey Pub, D’vine, Evil Olive, Kinetic Playground, Crocodile, Cocktail. In addition she has played various corporate and private events at venues such as the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art. Michaela’s vast knowledge of Chicago house and disco earned her a position as house buyer for legendary Southside record store (now defunct) Hot Jams music, where she also assisted with their DJ School, teaching younger girls how to spin records. She’s produced events with the Chicago chapter of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS) to honor artists such as Common, Chaka Khan and Les Paul. She was selected to compose the score, as well as mix live on stage, for the Coterie Theatre’s 2003 production of Black Butterfly, Jaguar Girl, Piñata Woman and Other Superhero Girls Like Me. And as former bassist/vocalist for FFM, she melded her classically-trained musical upbringing with the same raw, electro moxie that has earned her Chicago fame as a DJ and producer. Throughout her career, Miss Michaela has played alongside such major musical acts as Boy George, George Clinton, Stone Temple Pilots, Tortured Soul, Tony Humphries, Josh Wink, Justin Long, DJ Colette, Dayhota, Mazi, Carl Cox, The Orb, DJ Tekin and Jevne. She has also played in cities all over the United States and in international locations such as Istanbul, Turkey and Seoul, South Korea.
