Cool Female Dj Sets & Mixes Part Seven 2024

Harnomia @ Spring-In

This set was a different journey for me. 
I knew I had all of this new a very different feeling music the key elements of the tracks didn't mesh as well as a traditional sounding journey which would be in key and genre, then moving onto a new sound scape of sounds, something I spend a far bit of time on.  Its not common for me to play one genre, but I do most definitely make sure the sounds have their own family members, meaning that when you hear the next track its an easy fit and makes the set 'flow' a certain way. 
I feel like my sets are very different since I have started playing more diverse music and taking way more risks, some of which make it sound less than perfect - but - art isn't perfect and neither am I so, fuckit, I would rather play a bunch of sounds and songs that don't work or are harder to keep in time than play it 'safe' and only be recognized for one aspect of mixing, being smooth transitions, i personally prefer to hear a DJ mix and keep in time a track or two, something about that whole sound is a massive turn on for me, no idea why. 

I work hard on this set for sure, but even up to the night before I played it, it wasn't my 'traditional' clean journey sound, and it was tough going to this incredible venue with the mind set of 'well, I'll see what happens' instead of 'this is my first track and I know every track and transition after this one' because knowing what i am playing gives me a tremendous amount of comfort and confidence while playing  - but when I finally played it, it felt - different, I was more connected to the music and was able to form this story of music and make it new.

There's so much we can do with the craft of mixing and making music, if you've ever known a DJ and musician going through a hard time and listen back to their music you can hear it and that's what happening and that connects us to each other.

Like most art some people will get it and someone people won't connect or hear it, but that's the magic, I can come off stage and hear 'I loved that one Hip-hop track you played' and have almost no idea what they mean, but understand what they are saying, the experience is 'Hip-Hop' to them.

I also used some mixing techniques that are normally used when mixing Hip-Hop which was great fun and was done to high light the next song choice, this is used when I  mix Hip Hop because its all done by ear and vibe you can't really go into a Hip Hop set wanting it to sound as smooth as a house or techno set, where you can layer 32 bars of the tracks together. I think I was doing this to pay attribution to the original sounds of Turn tables where you could and would see people using effects such as 'the show' of one vocal cut to bring the audiences attention to the following track coming in, which allows the DJ to get them ready for the incoming track and drop,  now we mostly use a cued point loop, which is great but it not the same as a 'show track style' because you actually need to use the count of the bar loop and bring it in at the same spot at each point, otherwise it sounds pretty rough and overall kinda, well, choppy. 

Everytime there's a massive change in the style of music I play, it feels 'chunky' because it takes a while playing it out in order for it to feel smooth and mesh with me well enough for it to be a very clean feel. 
The extra 10% of any craft are what make the good great, and the greats just good. 

Honestly, I love playing and making music, mostly for what it can do for our conscious state of being - the all inspired and loved up party people of today are the ones who make the world a better place tomorrow and if art has no place then we as a community will also have no place.  
I loved playing at the Revs Cage. 
The first track before the Nina Simone is one of mine.

Welcome to Episode 3 of this little music project featuring NONE OTHER than the queen herself, @leahmariemusic-australia. 

Leah needs little introduction. Since jumping behind the decks in 2019 she's clocked some of Melbourne's most renowned venues, winning hearts in the process with her beautiful progressive melodic sounds that really make you feel something. 

Fun fact - Leah and I were meant to play a B2B set earlier this year but COVID had other plans. She's also DJing at my wedding next year. So, it's safe to say I am a huge fan of her work! She is such a humble, lovely and thoughtful person. Leah, I can't wait to dance IRL soon <3

GEMINI SOUND SESSIONS ~ EP 4. VANN GOLDIE

This set was one that I really looked forward to, I always love playing @revolverupstairs - the atmosphere there is always one of intense listeners and you can only really prepare to play, what you play depends on how the beautiful party people are feeling collectively at the moment you jump on. 
Because its so vast. 

Put it this, whenever someone asks you 'what should I play at Revs' besides doing your homework and listening to the DJ mixes who is playing before you and after you ( this is a massive way to increase your awareness of how the night / day is going to flow) 
Its determined on the audience, what do they or dont they need right now, at this very moment, sure whats the DJ before me playing plays a big part in it - its a vibe, do we need some light funky house, would a dash of prog do well here? or it that too heavy for these ears right now? you know, you need people to be captured and feel something, feel warm, feel happy and light, peaceful, like its all going to be ok, tomorrow is yesterdays problem - that sort of thing. 

Anyway, that might seem a bit deep for thinking about 'what am i going to play ' but its not, not really, most DJs would think along those lines when jumping on and if they do set prep than your thinking about the whole journey from start to end, at least I try to imagine it that way.
The more you play at a venue for a party, the better you can get a sense for what people need at what times, theres no fast quick way to play the best set of your life each time ( even though that is always my goal) its always important to think about your audience, especially the ones who are their each week, because they are ones who know what to expect you know at 7pm at Revs what do people expect to hear? I'd say good beaty music and depending on the day maybe a light bassy riff with some sweet flowy vocal. 

anyway, i dont know who really reads these write ups but i definitely enjoy writing them, so if you made it to the end of this one, thanks to you my friend you are a good person and the whole world loves you heaps and is working towards manifesting your greatest idea you hold of yourself xx

GEMINI SOUND SESSIONS ~ EP.5 WILCH

Last night ecstatic dance at our winter retreat, following a cacao ceremony <3

Ecstatic Winter Retreat @ Avani - Last night

Wow what an incredible set, i had so much fun on the Poof Doof stage!
I've been waiting and wanting to play for the amazing party forever and when i had word that I was back there in December, i had started working on what I was going to play. 
Classic Jasmine set - 3 deck mixing mash up and some stella bass lines for good measure <3
Love you PD!

POOF DOOF - HeadLine Set, 11.12.21

Slow, smooth and sexy downtempo beats, played on the prettiest stage, at Bazique Festival, 2022. 
Cred to Oliver Barnett, for some wonderful tunes!

Bazique Festival - Summer Camp, Lazy Beats Stage

a journey that began at camp, stayed by the Vaginarium until we rolled into the memorial burn after sunset.

AfrikaBurn 2022 - Thursday Sunset on the Flying Dutchman

Poof Doof - Live recording, PRIDE MONTH 04.06.22

It was the day that we arrived on the playa, on a Sunday, and I was itching to settle in by surprising a camp with music. I found familiar faces at the Camp with No Name, and I played until it got dark, accompanied partly by Remco Visker on the guitar (unfortunately could not record the input).

Burning Man 2022 - Sunday @ the Bar with No Name

A journey from downtempo fireside chills to sexy, rolling deep house, seducing you into some tech house bangers. Perfect House Party Mix.

From Downtempo To Downright Dirty (Party Mix)

<3<3<3 Dedicated to Melbourne  <3<3<3
Journey style 2hr mix, with melodic house, progressing into techno. 

I wanted to give the community of Melbourne something to listen to that comes from my heart that I believe showcases the sounds being played at this time. 

My Dj style has always been a journey dj and I have to say that playing for longer allows for more creative flare.

Jasmine Speers - Melbourne

This is a set where i played it safe in terms of track selection the environment calls for well know music, I'm a fan of playing for the crowed. 
I started heavier than i would normally but, the audience was amped, mainly due to a close friends birthday being in. 

Enjoy,
Jasmine

Jasmine Speers Live Set - Barton And Fink - Melb (4.5.19)

These days.. it's hard to find the light. 
.. music can help.

Playworks is.. a monthly podcast based on the idea that "playwork is the work of creating and maintaining spaces for children to play. The theory and practice of playwork recognises that children's play should ideally be "freely chosen, personally directed and intrinsically motivated." (wiki)
