Growing up in exotic tropical South-East Asia and then moving to vibrant cosmopolitan Melbourne just over 10 years ago, DJ Duchess Kay has experienced myriad tastes and styles of party music and its evolution through time. Duchess Kay's eclectic flavour of upbeat dance infused R&B, commercial hit tunes and electro beats guarantees to unleash your inner freak on the dance floor!

Mentored by the great DJ KC (3x DMC Champion), Duchess Kay has added her own demeanour and unique personality to the mesh of refined technical mixing abilities and has since taken the club scene by storm. 

Currently flexing her talents across Melbourne, Duchess Kay has rocked up a formidable portfolio of sold out events across a broad range of iconic establishments including The Emerson, Bond Bar, Club 23, Love Machine, The George On Collins, Seven Nightclub, Nobu, Sake Flinders, Imperial South Yarra, Marquee Sydney and a number of premium bars in Crown Melbourne; just to name a few. More recently, Duchess Kay has expanded her reach globally and has conquered the decks at renown international clubs such as F Club Singapore (Fashion TV), L’Endroit and La Bodega del Mar at Nouméa, New Caledonia and Insanity Nightclub in Bangkok. Her stellar performance has also landed her gigs at the 2016 Australian Grand Prix as well as the 2016 Midsumma T-Dance Festival.

The diverse range of clubs and bars conquered by the Duchess is attributed to her notorious ability to reach out, feel, and tease the crowd as well as the willingness to spin mixes across a wide variety of genres to get the crowd partying till the break of dawn.

DJ Duchess Kay is not just about her good music. What makes her one of the hottest up-and-coming DJ’s in Melbourne is her insatiable hunger to push herself, her music and her DJ career to greater heights and thus constantly seek ways to improve her repertoire as well as expand her reach across Australia, and one day, the world!

Reach out to her now! And be a part of ‘le déluge’
