DJ Shar (Solidst8erz)

Shar wanted to start dj-ing after listening to hip hop bands like Public Enemy and Run DMC and DJ’s like Cash Money. She used to bunk, school go to her friends house and they’d try to scratch hip-hop on an old belt driven turntable. She started playing acid house and techno in the early 90’s when she moved to London and bought her first set of a decks, which were Vestax. After a pretty traumatic house burglary where all her records and the decks were stolen she purchased some Technics and re-built her vinyl collection. Shar played at venues around London including Club 414, Dungeons Hackney and various bars in Camden. She now plays house, tech house and techno inspired by Carl Cox, Marco Carola, Jeff Mills.
