IDENTITY


Alkaline Records | Shejay | Vitus Productions | NERU | One Luv | DILYSI |
Toymaker | MSE : United States of America

Identity has landed her spot as North America's leading underground female hard house dj.
Throughout North America, eastern provinces of Canada, Australia, Nova Scotia, Europe, and
Asia, her music has been heard, and her performance has been witnessed! From old school
bouncy and clubby UK hard house, to the hoovering madness in todays driving style of NRG,
Melissa never lets a crowd down with her broad range of hard dance music. Having been
introduced into the electronic music scene at the age of fifteen, Melissa found a love
for the music and the atmosphere that filled the massives, as well as outlaw events she
attended. Being especially drawn to the reaction of the crowd with the dj that performed,
she knew that there was a calling for something more then just dancing. Melissa started
her musical adventure at the age of five when she began learning how to play the piano
and the organ, taught by her mother. As she got older, she started with various other
instruments such as the harmonica at the age of ten, the guitar at the age of twelve,
percussion as the age of 14, and synths at eighteen. By the time she reached sixteen, she
invested in turntables, headphones, and a mixer, watched and learned, and began playing
various house parties and local teen center shows opening for bands. By 2003, her name
spread, and she began playing some of the best events in the Northeast. By 2004, she had
her first international gig, and by 2007 she would have played in virtually every major
city in the northeast, and midwestern parts of the united states, as well as various
cities in canada. Her music has been distributed, and played on radio stations throughout
the world, and her personality has been recognised and respected by people across the
globe. Her energetic performance, vast music style, turntablism, and track selection has
given Melissa a high five in America’s Hard Dance scene. Along with being an
exceptional musician and dj, Melissa is also a promoter of a New England based crew
called the New England Rave Union (NERU) that reaches out to the local scene, and
promotes events of past standing. She accepts the new guys, and gives them a chance to
play outside the bedroom, and has been successful with gaining her crew members access to
many different events, and having performed internationally as well. Melissa is an
exceptional person, dj, musician, and friend, and supports so many aspects of the scene
and all of its elements and all of its musical styles. She is a must see at your events,
and a must meet at your gatherings. For booking info contact booking@shejay.net or
