‘If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.’ Nikola Tesla

Vanessa Holliday’s insatiable curiosity about the true origins of the universe and thinking in terms of energy, frequencies and vibrations, has led her to experiment and to infuse special transformational vibrational frequencies into her productions, thereby creating music that truly resonates positively with humanity. She is constantly pushing boundaries, transcending rules and trends, creating her own distinctive sound and offering music that in its purist form expresses freedom, expansion of consciousness, truth and love.

Vanessa has been entertaining crowds through vinyl since her teens. Her passion for music lead her to study Advanced Music Production at Soul Candi, piano as well as experimenting with production technology in her live sets. With her fingers in a world of soulful and deep melodic music making, Vanessa has been signed to Heads & Tails Record Label, by far one of the most established deep/nu-disco house labels in South Africa. She has also recently been signed to Sullivan Room Records in NYC, one of the longest running underground house and techno institutions.

Vanessa’s first EP release “Deep Layers” is an elegant serving of her musical productions. This EP was inspired by her cavernous passion for electronic dance music and producing. It’s heartfelt, deep and incorporates the many layers of her creative expression. She is constantly improving her skills on her productions, as she believes that you can never know too much in the world of production - you learn something new every day.

Vanessa has been DJing for almost 10 years - growing from club and festival performer, to radio presenter, savvy businesswoman and producer, taking her love for sublime beats on the journey. With roots in vinyl and playing progressive trance, Vanessa is one of the first female performers to sustain the ever-changing scene, exploring sounds which she does not limit herself to one sound, technology, dancing, singing, fashion and even piano lessons, as an intrinsic part of her creative expression.

Today, her music is inspired by a more intelligent sound, avant-garde underground, still influenced with a melodic undertone. She favours a blend of euphoria, femininity and finesse and indulges the productions of Alex Niggemann, Pantha Du Prince, Jon Hopkins and Deniz Kurtel, among others. Her work on the club circuit has taken her beyond the borders to London, India and Ibiza, as well as all over SA and deep into Africa. Here, experiencing the cultures in Kenya, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia, inspired her tribal rhythms.

Vanessa has done shows on some of SA’s best-loved community and web radio stations, including Dance Web Radio, MFM in Stellenbosch, 2Oceansvibe and Assembly Radio. 
“The Underground Radio Show - you are what you listen to,” a radio show hosted every Wednesday from 4-6pm on Assembly Radio, was created so that she can experiment with a more subversive and underground sound to push boundaries and share creative musical DNA comprising of sounds that are anomalous and contagiously unique.

Vanessa Holliday has no qualms about her endeavour to consistently improve herself and her technical performance, and it’s this same graceful approach to working for success and impressive ambition that has propelled her into starting her own communications and events company. 

Younique Concepts specializes in PR for the music & entertainment industry, as well as staging their own events and collaborating with other artists all over the world. A large part of this role functions within the music industry, a connection she’s grateful to be making.

Vanessa has left the crowd in the dust, as her unique adventure continues into the vast void...

      BORN
      Durban, South Africa 1982 

      I started Djing way back in 1997, doing the odd house party for a friend before organizing school Disco’s where I made sure I was the DJ.

      My real break came on a night out to a club, when I started chatting with one of the dj’s and they said that the Dj that was    supposed to play in the VIP area got sick and couldn’t make it, and he asked if I would like to play? So luckily I lived quite close to the club and shot home to get my records. Back to the club, nervous as anything, but pulled off a brilliant set.

      The owners came up to me after that and offered me a full time dj position. Which at the time being only fifteen (and really not allowed to be in the club) to begin with, I had to turn them down. But it was the beginning for me.
      Slowly I built up a good reputation amongst fellow (Older) Dj’s and by the time I was sixteen I was a resident in Durban’s Biggest Night Club.

      As time went on though I started to diversify my music.
      I met a Dj who was in the corporate market, and decided to dj a few Gigs for him, although different from the big mad Club scene, I quite enjoyed it. Playing the radio top 40 hits and cheesy pop 80’s mix, to a select crowd of people.

      So as a direct off shoot from that, I started doing various weddings and birthday parties.

      As time moved on I managed to get various gigs from Clubs to weddings to corporate events, Which I thoroughly enjoyed, as it meant a constant change of music, From 80’s to Rock to the Top 40 Hits, and Dance.
      Of course my love for music grew, and I knew as School came to an end for me it was time to enrol in Colladge, Where I did a degree in Sound Engineering.
      Completing that in 2002.

      I sort of fell out of the Dj Scene as “Real Life “started.
      Still doing the odd wedding or corporate fuction every so often.

      Then in May 2005 I decided to head to the UK.
      Where I met up with some Fellow South African Dj’s that were playing at a club I used to Frequent. Following many conversations and many months of waiting, just wanting to play music for people again…. I finally got my chance in late 2005.

      I started Djing @ Zulu’s Bar in Fulham, and once again realised my love for playing music to people and just seeing how much they enjoyed themselves.

      Since then I have continued to Dj @ various other venue’s around London, Including Bar 366, Circle Bar, Zulus Fulham Zulu’s Leyton stone and GJ’s

      As well as doing some of my friend’s weddings and a 
      couple of corporate functions.

      As Time has moved on, I have now come to realise that my love for music had found a groove... and that grovve was house music!!! Since that day in Early 2006, I have become a Dance Dj. Playing Mainly Electro, and Tech House... and at times the odd bit of Funky, Jackin House!!!

      I don’t think I’ll ever manage to completely stop djing as the feeling I get as a dj, being able to get a smile on people’s faces and watch them sing along into the early hours of the morning is one of a kind “Absolutely Irreplaceable”
      

South African producer/DJ and creator of Shangaan Electro

Missred Biography

Music Style: Deeper Sounds of House

Great DJs have three things in common: Passion, talent and that unmistakable X factor. Missred has all three in abundance.
The music drives her, the talent pumps through her veins and the X factor can be judged by witnessing her command behind the decks. She’s no amateur either.
With years of solid crowd-pleasing experience, Missred’s star is on the rise. She has performed in front of the most demanding crowds in South Africa as well as Internationally. Playing at top class clubs & capacity festivals. Missred has also been featured as a regular guest on radio & television shows.

Miss Red was part of an all-female DJ agency which was founded and run
by Lady Lea.Divas on Decks consists of the best female DJ’s in South Africa. The agency is set to promote, protect and book female DJ’s to showcase her full potential and music styles.

In order to grow further as an accomplished DJ, Missred is also involved with hosting her own events.Joined forces with 2lani’s label – Do It Now Recordings as Events Manager. She was asked to release her first album in 2015.Do it Now Records presents Oh So Coy – Mixed by Missred- Available on Spotify & most digital platforms

To add to that Missred also owned her own DJ School. This gives her a more intimate knowledge of the music she plays. Her passion fuels her ambition and she aims to release a few exemplary albums, with productions signed to overseas labels.

In her own words: "I play with soul and emotion. For the two hours that

I’m up there, I share a part of my soul with the crowd and vice versa, without ever saying a word to each other. Nothing excites me and makes me happier than to see so many people, regardless of age, gender, or race, coming together for the love of house music. I’m just grateful to be instrumental in that experience."

Her style of music is broad and reflects her educated and mature taste, taking inspiration from all genres and blending it into an aural experience that can only be described as sublime.
Whether it be minimal tech, electronic or instrumental...As long as we get deep. Depending on where I play and the energy I get from the crowd, that allows me to express my emotions & where I can take them, because as much as I like to educate and inspire, I always remember that we are all together for one reason & that reason is .... The Music!

"House music is the best way of expression for me. It feeds my mind, my
body, and most importantly, my soul!"
