I wanted to come back rly strong and usually I always handle every aspect of my show myself – to save time this was one of the first times I’ve outsourced essential things like rekordbox bpm’s and letting someone else organize the tracks on the sd card etc,” she began. “i had a bad feeling beforehand not having run everything thru the cdjs myself and tho I flagged it I wasn’t insistent.

the big lesson for me was a mix of 1 if u want it done right, do it yrself 2 be a c-nt even if ppl feel bad 3 probably pretend it’s fine and engage w the crowd rather than spend a whole show slumped over the desk trying to fix software when ur meant to be entertaining,” she continued. “I will personally organize all the files next week.

I will not let such a thing happen again. I’ve spent months on this show, making music and visuals, and admittedly am not in the best mood atm.
