Activision DJ Hero Launch party w/Jay-Z & Eminem!
Thursday, Jun 11, 2009 2:21PM / Standard Entry / Live DJ Performances / Members only

Hi Loveys!

I been deep in the zone, gigging some amazing events, in the studio producing and working on some exciting new projects!

To recap the biggest highlights, I dj'd at the Grand Opening of LEGIT at CONTROL, the friday weekly at Avalon in Hollywood. This is a separate VIP area with its own side entrance, and is hosted by Ben Beck, the Everyday crew and Audrey Napoleon. That night was the 1st nite that particular room was packed all night, and its been going off ever since! Check it out if you're in LA, always world-class Electro, House, and Nu-Disco artists such as Tiga, LCD Soundsystem and The Juan Maclean.

Had an incredible Memorial Day Weekend. I played a new spot called OPEN AIR at Wokcano in Santa Monica. It has a huge outdoor lounge & dancefloor area featuring top notch House headliners such as Dave Dresden, Mark Farina and Heather.

Then I got to throw down, seriously throw down, with my girls Eva, Reid Speed, Roxanne & Miyuki at BROKE at Holly's in Hollywood. With this crew its always "A-game" time, with a mix of Breaks, Electro, Fidget & Dubstep!

Then I had a truly amazing gig come my way...the DJ Hero video game launch party!! I got booked to be the house DJ to warm up the crowd for DJ AM & Travis Barker, and then again for JAY-Z & EMINEM!!! This was the party of parties kids! Activision went all out for this E3 Conference kick-off event with complimentary valet, red carpet, specialty caterers, full open bar, and ultra VIP was in the balcony with reported celeb sightings Leonardo di Caprio, Kim Kardashian & Pete Wentz. The visuals for AM & Travis' set were beautifully architected with the tracks, synchronized with a spot on interpretation of each song.

Now I enjoy hip hop, but I'm not a fanatic, definitely very picky and lean more toward old skool hip hop...now with that said...I have to say I was absolutely impressed with Jay-Z!! Wow. He is such a charismatic performer. I was dancing my ass off! And then the clincher was Eminen joining him onstage for a joint performance as they transitioned over to Em's part of the show. As you know, he's been away for quite some time, but he sounded tight as ever, on top of his game. Quite the show, quite the gig, and I was ever so thrilled to be part of it.

I am waiting to get pix from my friend, since I have yet to replace my camera that was stolen from one of my gigs (boooo....!) so will post as soon as I can!

Hearts!

Dubbed as one of “electronica’s shining lights” by KARMA Magazine in 2007, DJ Syrena has been rocking dancefloors in the US and internationally since late 1999. A consummate beat mixer who cut her own groove in the pulsating energy of the Los Angeles nightlife scene, Syrena’s sound is bold, sexy and confident. Dirty Electro, punctuated by Breakbeat, Funk, 80’s, Industrial and Rock influences, Booty-shaking House and Deep, Minimal Techno comprise her current repertoire, with roots in Drum & Bass that still influence her today.

Her infectious energy heightens the experience of any party, be it for the jetsetters at a Nikki Beach club or elevating style for a FENDI penthouse party, her client list reads long with lifestyle connoisseurs and culture-savvy entities. From fashion shows to celebrity events, her talents have resulted in a word-of-mouth-sensation to perform for the likes of the American Music Awards, Veuve Clicquot, Jaguar, Activision, ELLEgirl Magazine, and Miss Sixty.

Well respected by the media, she has been recognized many times over as one of LA’s hottest female DJ’s by the Los Angeles Times, Metromix, URB, KARMA and Mixer, to name a few. Her entry into the 2005 BPM Magazine Beauty and The Beats contest placed her as a Top 10 runner up, out of hundreds of entries. Asia’s Jade Channel/TVB Network based a reality TV show, on her experiences as a DJ in 2004, and she is currently the subject of a prominent filmmaker’s documentary on LA female DJs.

She is an active supporter of women working in the music industry, and founded Selectress.com, a website to promote her fellow female colleagues, and is a contributing writer to SheJay.net. Due to her reputation, She was hand selected by the legendary Viper Room to be the resident DJ for the raucous “Girl On Girl” Tuesdays featuring the best of female bands and DJs.

A master mixologist gifted with a natural ear for music, Syrena divides her time between live performances, and the sanctuary of her recording studio producing tracks for her forthcoming album. Her latest tracks are featured on her official Myspace page. For more info please visit myspace.com/syrena or djsyrena.com.
