[Scarlett Etienne](https://www.soundcloud.com/scarlettmusic) is one of the hottest properties on the music scene right now – name‐checked by the likes of Sasha (who named her ‘Breakthrough DJ of 2008’ in the Top 100 issue of DJ Mag), signed up to represent Pioneer Pro DJ, and dressed by fashion heavyweight Matthew Williamson, she’s equally at home in the dance press as she is in Vogue.
One of a rising breed of young producers permeating the London club scene, Scarlett delivers a unique sound cultivated through a life‐long love of music. Born in Hong Kong to a US military family, Scarlett stunned her parents by climbing onto the piano stool while still a toddler and playing whatever she heard by ear. Music lessons followed, with Scarlett playing in bands throughout her teens, adding the electric guitar to her prodigious piano talent. After travelling across the world, she settled in New York City at 18, while there her revelatory discovery of dance music left her classical leanings at the wayside.
An avid clubland face, she spent time perfecting her own deck skills, inspired by NYC DJs Danny Tenaglia, Larry Tee, and Junior Vasquez, soon landing her first residency in the early Noughties at New York’s Sound Factory. Her sets quickly caught the ears of the DJ A‐list who guested at the club, and before long Scarlett found herself invited overseas. Over the next few years she proceeded to evolve her sound and establish her own distinct style on the international clubs scene.
Scarlett has now signed to the Mainstage Artists roster. 2011 will see her working with Pioneer Pro DJ after they took her innovative ideas on board to develop the CD J-‐2000 for the digital DJ. She is also working closely with Native Instruments to incorporate their cutting‐edge software, includingGuitarRig,into her live sets. From 15 minute sets to accompany fashions hows (she has compiled her first soundtrack for the runway show for Ziad Ghanem’s iconic Autumn/Winter 2010/11 Haute Couture collection at Somerset House for London Fashion Week 2010) to full DJ sets and live performances, Scarlett’s star continues to ascend as she stamps her imaginative style on dance floors and stages across the globe.
The event will take place on 27 June from 9pm onwards at club kyo.
Public Admission: $20 for ladies, $25 for men (incl. 1 drink)
