OFFICIAL BIO
Regarded upon his 2006 arrival as a promising beatmaker looming in the shadows of J Dilla, Madlib, waterfalls and Dabrye, Steven Ellison -- known as Flying Lotus -- nullified all comparisons only two years later with Los Angeles. On that album, his first of five for the Warp label, Ellison distilled a uniquely crisp, spasmodic, and heady sound with elements of hip-hop, avant-garde jazz, IDM, and dubstep. While the abovementioned producers fueled Ellison, he had also been excited as a youngster by the '90s West Coast rap classics that combined programming and live instrumentation. His sound continued to develop as he put his own twist on the approach, recording with a crop of jazz musicians including the indispensable likes of bassist Thundercat and strings master Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. This process began with the turbulent 2010 set Cosmogramma and peaked in terms of acclaim in 2014 with You're Dead!, which crashed the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and spawned the Kendrick Lamar collaboration "Never Catch Me," a Grammy nominee for Best Dance Recording. Ellison devoted a few years to various forms of film work and the operation of his revered Brainfeeder label, and returned in 2019 with Flamagra, his second consecutive album to top Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart.

Her slammin’ beatz and smooth mixes are not to be missed. Hitting the Florida rave scene in the late 90’s, this young breakster spent most of her time kickin’ it up underground. She was a familiar face on the dance-floor in clubs such as Ahhzz, Firestone, JJ Whispers-Cloud 9, The Edge, Infinity and Ultra Violet. Her love for music shined through her skills on the dance floor. It was inevitable that she would move from the center floor to the DJ booth. Her love for Breakbeats blossomed as she felt the rhythm set by DJ’s such as Icey, Tony Faline and Sharaz, and her long time favorites Rob-E and Friction n’ Spice. With some helpful hints and months of practice, she released her first promo CD, just in time for 2000’s annual Winter Music Conference in Miami.

In 2003, she earned a spot on the OAKLEY promotional tour and was the first and ONLY female artist signed to Huda Hudia’s record label KALEIDOSCOPE ALL STAR. She has taken the underground breaks world by storm, even hosted her very own Friday night radio show on the infamous BREAKS FM. 

Signed to Needle Gruv Records in 2006, her first licensed CD, “BREAKING WAVES”- mixed LIVE with longtime friend DJ Momentum. The CD features tracks by EDM legends Icey, Scratch-D of Dynamix II, BassBin Twins, Johnny Cage, Malicious Mike, Project Mayhem along with several unreleased/released original and remixed tracks.

With four vinyl presses to under her belt, she was asked to demo Serato for Microsoft at the Remix Hotel, during the 2007 Winter Music Conference. The highlight of her career was when Lil Jon joined her during that demo and jammed out.
