La Dame Dj / Producer

Everything La Dame plays is rich of drums, soulful inspiration and heat, but let's say her main musical landscapes are sunny, polyglot and generous. She loves to play and produce what does not have a 4 to the floor rythm, what contains breaks, what grooves on a non-binary flow. La Dame explores music with insatiable enthusiasm and curiosity. Her eclectic way to approach music is her strength and speciality, combined with high-quality mixing skills. Respected locally and internationally everywhere she goes, this atypical personality has lived in several places around the world, she is a kindly polyglot.

Famous for her eclectic global club offerings, as a producer she has released EP's, remixes and tracks that illustrate this aim to smash the borders, for labels such as Blanc Manioc (FR), Wonderwheel Rec. (US), Yuku (CZ) and Banoffee Pies (UK) (among others), remixed artists like David Walters, Yeahman, Miguel Mallumbrosio, collaborated with Florian Pellissier, Cyril Atef, Deheb, Goldie B, etc.

Her debut in Belgium is promising, as she has already played in renowned venues and festivals: Le Botanique, La Cabane, Esperanzah festival, La Nature festival, Horst festival, Couleur Café festival, etc. She has also become a resident of Kiosk Radio where her monthly show offers a journey between jazz, bass, club, beats, etc.

La Dame has many strings to her bow, one of them being to organize parties, program and unearth talents. She has had two residencies in the past. The first one took place from 2009 to 2012 at La Fée verte Lyon France. As part of the "Bounce da Ass" night (named after Dj Funk's famous club banger), the objective was to promote an overall club atmosphere. She received local and national artists such as Kaptain Kadillac (Paris), Max le Daron (Brussels), Moffo (Tel Aviv), etc. The second residency, at Casa Independente in Lisbon between 2016 and 2019 was called "Itineraries" as it invited each time an artist for a B2B on a specific theme: afrobeats with Rastronaut (PT), hiphop with Deheb (FR), baile funk with Cigarra (BR), funk with dj Kwan (PT), disco with Sumo Sui (NZ), Arabic electro with Freakass E (GE), etc. The third residency was about highlighting women on the global beat stage in La Maison Mère in Lyon (FR). During 2 years, every 2 months she invited plenty talented women from France and abroad like Mambo Chick, Dj Caroll, Badsista, Goldie B, Célélé, etc.
