You've reached the holding place for Lucy Ironmonger's newish, oldish, antiquated and generally not mastered jams. Leave a message after the beep.

A friend after hearing me DJ for the first time 'did you play a lot of Street Fighter 2 as a child?', and actually, I think this explains a lot. Along with that, from 2013-2022 I was 1/4 of the @Meat-Free-DJs which has also shaped a lot of my music tastes. We've put on a lot of techno raves in Manchester during that time, and the girls continue to smash it! You can see more via www.thisismeatfree.com. Until 2021 I was also Ops Director at School of Electronic Music, there for nearly 10yrs which was a special time, I met a lot of amazing people there and that has definitely had a big impact on my journey in music. 

Women and their place in electronic music is also a subject very close to my heart, so if you're in the scene trying to break in or get noticed please feel free to give me a shout on here. Happy to pretty much have a mix with anyone looking to learn or generally vibe. 

I'm listing my gigs below because it's the only place I actually keep a track of them! I don't often record mixes (as you can probs tell by my outdated Soundcloud) - hearing me live is definitely the place, although I'm taking some time out from that at the moment :) 

2022-onwards: Taking time out for family, we now have 2 beautiful daughters :)
