Melissa Juice Gay as in happy, queer as in "fuck you".

Mel is full time Disc Jester, digger and (hyper)active member of the Brussels' queer & selector scenes.

Mixing everything from sun-soaked mainstage showstoppers to liminal dark room deep cuts, her sets are fluid, versatile and unapologetic. She leads with a heavy dose of all things proggy, bouncy & euphoric. Stimulating rhythms & layered grooves unify her multitude of musical tastes into a library built to last all night. There is a perfect track for every moment, and she will happily take you along on her journey to find it. Melissa Juice is a resident DJ and co-organiser at MISSFITTE, a collective hosting care-focused, queer-forward underground events with trans & sapphic folks at the core. She hosts After Party on Gimic Radio, a podcast where local ravers over 40 share their experiences & expertise related to longterm raving. She is also one half of dynamic DJ duo Double Double (with musical soulmate and fellow Pulp Agency artist Spirite).

For many DJs, live radio mixes are often a big step for sharing and self-promotion. For those of you who mix at home and/or on your own controller - there can be a big gap. It might be your first time being recorded, first time playing in a public space, maybe even your first time using CDJs - which can add a lot of pressure! This workshop is designed to help with that transition, and help you feel prepared when you step in that booth and have some fun :)

I will be sharing:

• Set structure / storytelling basics
• Rekordbox prep basics
• Introduction to CDJs / standard mixers
• Tips, tricks & questions
