Laura Hemsley

Disco/House/Techno

Laura's ascent into the underground began after discovering Techno at The Orbit in 1999..

There was no looking back, the scene had her hooked! Since this initial inception she has actively sought the finest in underground electronic music, from around the world. Inspired to DJ, she began collecting vinyl and developing her musical tastes and technical skills.

As well as influencing her DJing, this voyage gave inspiration to her studies whilst achieving a Batchelor of Arts Degree from Liverpool John Moores in Media & Cultural Studies. Focusing on Gender and Contemporary Dance Music, DJ Cultures and The History of Electronic Music. Liverpool, Leeds & Manchester provided an axis of quality techno nights, DJ's, record shops and friends to help develop her performances. Her love of vinyl still remains strong, but now she also combines playing records with using her laptop to add another dynamic to her cutting edge Techno sets. Her dedication to Techno has also led her to start working on her own productions.
