Sisters on the decks – not so new!
Believe it or not but Editorista is an ex-DJ – well if such a thing exists – maybe once a DJ always a DJ? She started DJ’ing in London a few years back and came back here and partied up a storm at the popular Legwarmer’s bashes and other parties all over Joburg – that was in 2002 when Sister Dj’s were just making their mark and strutting their talent. Editorista then got bored and tired …
of DJ’ing and although she hasn’t played in more than a year she still has her decks and vinyls…
Anyway the point is that the Press Release for this party makes it sound like female DJ’s are a phenomenon. We’re not. There’s a female DJ in nearly every one of my friends after a few glasses of wine. Looking at the line-up of female ‘DJ’s’ it sounds like we may be correct – anyone can be a DJ these days and it’s not about the skill or the flavour anymore…
Go and check out these sisters at the Sprite parties kicking off this Thursday 15 December. Let us know how it flows! And always remember to cherish your inner DJ.
“Sistas are doing it for themselves”; the phrase that has inspired the Sprite Zero Limits All-Girl DJ Tour which starts in Johannesburg on the15th December at Shoukara at The Junction Centre, Rivonia before making it’s way down to the sunny city of Durban.
Female DJ’s are breaking new barriers and making their presence felt in the club DJ scenes and making a sound stand in the industry. Burning the vinyls on the night will be DJ Irma G, DJ C-4, DJ Prudy and DJ Sweet Sarah with celebrity radio DJ Mags from East Coast Radio.
Also featuring on the night are celebrity DJs Noni Gasa and Hlubi Mboya, who are gearing up for the night. Noni Gasa, hails from Empangeni and has climbed the ladder to being crowned the face of SA Fashion Week. A true picture of diversity and style, she is clearly on her way to the top as she was also recently announced as the face of Tag Heuer watches. The dynamite in a small package, Hlubi Mboya, rose to fame as the petite HIV positive Nandipha Sithole on our local soapie Isidingo and has become a household name in her own right.
Celebrity DJs will mix some beats alongside the best SA local DJs at each event, creating a unique and original DJ tour tastefully themed “Zero Limits!”. This is guaranteed to be a night to remember. Not only will Sprite Zero bring women at the top of their game together for two unforgettable evenings of music and no limits, but will also offer a fantastic main prize for the winner and 3 friends to experience an evening of absolutely no limits courtesy of Sprite Zero.
Tickets are R50:00 at the door. Doors open at 9PM
