Miss Hazard & Esette Live at Hump Day House Party Feb 21.21

Happy New Year friend. At the turn of the new year, I had an idea about doing a mix series. Nothing planned. Nothing organized. Just a moment in time with my music and gear. Exploring sounds, textures and feelings. 
"While You Were Out" means so many things. Our industry has been out for 2 years, many of us have been out of work, out of our normal, missing our friends and favourite spaces and communities. This mix series is dedicated to the space in between then and now. 

This is the first in the series. Enjoy.

While You Were Out Mix Series Episode 1: Esette

Since 1999, Esette (@isis-graham)has played an instrumental role in shaping Calgary’s dance music landscape into the internationally recognized hotspot that it is today. Her work with Versions, Girls on Decks, Studio Social, Substation Recordings, Habitat Living Sound, The Hifi Club and, and the Alberta Electronic Music Conference have made Esette a name synonymous with cultural growth and a force constantly driving artists around her to push forward. 

As a DJ she’s been invited to play notable festivals like Bass Coast, Shambhala, WMC, Decibel, MEMETIC, Think!Festival Germany and Amsterdam Dance Event. Her 30+ releases showcase her ability to maintain a uniqueness in her music while harkening back to some of dance music’s most classic sounds.

Each month, I love curating these Mousai Mixes with female DJs around the world. I love to share their sounds, stories and energy. I hope you enjoy this beautifully crafted Mousai Mix.

Music is Medicine! 𓂀

Esette + Miss Hazard: Bass Coast 2023

Here's a one-shot recreation of my set at the Living Room Stage at Shambhala Music Festival 2023. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to perform for you all at this festival, for a Western Canadian this is a dream come true. When Lion-S asked me to play this year, she asked me to harken back to the classics and give the dance floor a bit of an education, so I played some of my favourite classics that I have from my vinyl collection and a few new ones in that vein.

Esette & Miss Hazard Live on Twitch Feb 27

Isis Graham
Notoriously resilient and endlessly innovative, Esette (aka Isis Graham) has carved out a lasting legacy in Western Canada’s electronic music scene. With over two decades of experience, her unrelenting work ethic has made her a leading figure both behind the decks and behind the scenes, shaping cultural staples like The Alberta Electronic Music Conference, Girls on Decks, Substation Recordings, and Versions Patio Parties.

Graham’s roots in Calgary’s underground rave scene date back to 1998, where she witnessed the peak of renegade parties. By 1999, she transitioned into DJing, and after local bylaws led to the end of raves, she adapted by bringing her sound to some of Western Canada’s most iconic venues over the past 20 years. Her sets have graced stages at renowned clubs like the Embassy, Cherry Lounge, HIFI Club, Habitat Living Sound, and Open Studios as well as celebrated festivals like Bass Coast, WMC, Decibel, Think! Festival, and Shambhala.

In 2003, Graham co-founded Girls on Decks, a collective that was dedicated to amplifying the visibility of female and non-binary DJs in the dance music scene. While the initiative is no longer active, its impact on Calgary’s music community is undeniable, with its influence continuing to resonate today. 

Since 2007, Graham has built an impressive catalogue as a producer, with releases on Supremus Music, O*rs, Substation Recordings, RF, gaining support from top-tier artists like Maceo Plex, Fred Everything, Seth Troxler, and Jamie Jones. From 2013 to 2018, she served as A&R for the Calgary-based Substation Recordings, further nurturing local talent. She also co-founded Studio Social, Calgary’s first producer-focused listening event series, which fostered collaboration and community among music creators.

In 2016, Graham co-launched the Alberta Electronic Music Conference, a boutique gathering of electronic music masterminds that ran annually at Calgary’s National Music Centre until 2019. The conference featured 60+ panels, workshops, and mentorship opportunities for emerging artists. Recognized for her entrepreneurial spirit, she received Avenue Magazine’s "Top 40 Under 40" award in 2019. Additionally, her weekly summer residency "Versions" at Modern Love (formerly Broken City) has become a key event for community building, nurturing emerging talent and fostering Calgary’s house
music scene, celebrating its 11th season in 2024.

Esette’s passion for launching boundary-breaking initiatives extends to her identity as a performer. Ever-evolving and always effervescent, her multifaceted approach and raw passion shine through her work—continuing to inspire and energize those fortunate enough to experience her sound.
