HOUSE ARENA
DJ IRENE (Moist recordings/AMONLY)
NYC the globalhouse diva makes her first trip to the Surreal stage. The cult of DJ Irene began at Hollywood’s mega club Arena. Here, her DJ and life dramas played out through her mixing and publicly on the dance floor. This only made people love her more and helped her to see how she could give back by leading a positive life with the music. She says, “At one point I realized that I am not just playing records to the same people every weekend. These people care about me, more than I care for myself. I knew I had to make them proud by being proud of myself, by taking care of myself, by being the best.”
The best for DJs is selling more mix CDs than any other DJ in her genre, it is non-stop touring at every major music festival and at the best clubs around the world, it is having pop culture and rock journalists queuing to get interviews, it is being the DJ whom some DJs fear having to play after and being the DJ that younger DJs want to be. This is DJ Irene. When the rest of the world realized the allure of the cult of the DJ all DJ Irene had to do was say “Here I am, kiss my ass, I’m one bad ass bitch that can mix!!!”

dabbled in many forms of music, ranging from hip hop, to
breaks, hardhouse, dnb and hardcore... he has pretty much played it
all. This openess to various types of music is also heard in his
productions, which range as widely as his choice in records.
In the past year, CRiSiS has furthered his role in the music,
getting serious about introducing original music to the
dancefloor. Good track selection, seamless mixing, precise scratching, and
original sounds make CRiSiS a well rounded, and respected DJ.
