Vicky Devine

Vicky Devine is one of the leading DJs to break out of the UK.... with her successful career taking her all over the world and which led to her becoming a main room resident at one of the most popular and well known nights in Ibiza - Judgement Sundays. Also an established producer, record label owner, TV / radio presenter and event promoter, Vicky's hard work is testament to her love of all things dance music and one of the reasons she continues to be at the forefront in todays dance music scene. The History.... Vicky has been involved in music in some capacity throughout most of her life. Reaching Grade 6 in Piano and playing classical guitar throughout her school years, she was quickly enticed into the dance music world and has worked within the industry ever since. Beginning as a club reviewer and interviewer for a variety of dance music magazines, she then went on to work in promotional roles for a number of UK based events. There was always a DJ inside though and she was soon behind the decks spending hours after college learning how to mix. This coupled with her passion for music, endless enthusiasm and her gritty determination has helped build her career and has made her one of the most established female DJ’s and producers in the current dance music scene. As a result Vicky has gone on to wow fans in the UK and indeed around the world, with a reputation built on her uplifting yet driving sets which span a variety of genres and incorporate elements of trance, tech and progressive. She has played at some of the biggest and most respected nights and clubs in the UK including The Warehouse Project, The Gallery, The Syndicate and Pams House, has been included on several festivals and tours including A State of Trance (Den Bosch), Gatecrasher, and Slinky and has DJ'd for years on a worldwide level at clubs throughout Europe, Canada, Russia, South America, Mexico, Indonesia, Malaysia, Dubai, Australia and New Zealand to name but a few. Ibiza.... Over the years Vicky has been a regular guest at many clubs and bars in Ibiza and this eventually led to her gaining a main room residency at Judge Jules’s massive Judgement Sundays night at Eden. Playing weekly for over 8 years at the busiest night in San Antonio meant playing regularly alongside many of the leading names in today’s scene, as well as establishing her name as one of the favourite Ibiza residents both with DJ’s and clubbers alike. And lets not forget Vicky’s other Ibiza summer residencies at UltraViolet, Derailed, the Judgement Boat Parties and the all female DJ “Charlys Angelz” events which featured on the island for several years and which she played an integral role in running and promoting. Vicky has also played at several of the islands others superclubs over the years including Amnesia, Privilege, Space, Es Paradis, Summum, El Divino and The Old Zoo as well holding a residency for 6 years (2003 - 2009) at the huge BCM on neighbouring Balearic island Majorca. Ibiza though is her home, and it is here she loves to play. She is a well known face on the circuit here and she continues to be involved in new projects both DJing and behind the scenes on the island year after year. Production.... On the production front Vicky has also seen much success. She had early productions as part of collaborations released on Infectious Distribution, Solar Records and F Active Music, before moving onto working on solo productions. She has gone on to have releases on some of todays biggest labels - most notably Spinnin, Blackhole, Fraction and Recoverworld, - and has had corresponding remixes from and collaborations with some of the scenes most recognisable names and emerging stars. Her tracks have been supported by the likes of Armin Van Buuren, Tiesto, Paul Van Dyk, Paul Oakenfold, Gareth Emery and Sean Tyas, have had amazing reviews in top music magazines IDJ, Mixmag and M8, have regularly reached high charting positions both in Beatport and Trackitdown, have had plays on some of the biggest Radio Shows and Podcasts from around the world and have featured on numerous mix compilations. Never one to rest on her laurels, 2012 saw the launch of her own label DE:VA Recordings. As the name alludes to - expect music on here with plenty of attitude - including releases from the lady herself. Indeed Vicky's studio itinerary is always bubbling away - news of brand new releases are coming soon! Radio & TV .... Radio has played a massive part in Vicky’s career to date and is something she was involved with from a very early stage. Having provided Ibiza reports and interviews for several UK based stations, and having also hosted her own show on Ibiza dance music station Holiday FM, she went on to produce her own monthly "DE:VA" radio show on Afterhours FM as well as airing as a podcast on Podomatic. Over the years she has had a multitude of guest mixes and interview’s on other high profile radio shows also including Judge Jules's BBC Radio One Show, Woody Van Eyden and Alex Morph’s Heavens Gate Show, Kiss FM, Eddie Halliwell’s BBC Radio One Show, and on Judge Jules’s Global Warm Up show, not to mention on several International Web Based Stations. In addition Vicky has been involved in television work with Rapture TV, MOS TV, Living TV and WTFI, and was one of the presenters for Ibiza Live and Clubland TV in Ibiza whereby she interviewed and presented for a range of high profile music and TV stars. Vicky is one of the unsung heroes of trance in the UK. She has been our Judgement Sundays Ibiza resident for ten years and never fails to ignite the crowd. Her music style and persona behind the decks are second to none - Judge Jules One of the worlds best female DJ’s – Armin Van Buuren, ASOT Ibiza's leading female DJ - Mixmag Vicky Devine is definitely one of the reasons why I enjoy DJing at Judgement Sundays in Ibiza so much, it’s hard to find a DJ who can do a proper warm up set without taking anything away from the music I want to play in a club. I have stayed around to hear one of her closing sets and they have just as much impact as her opening sets. If I was a promoter I would want her involved in my night! - Sander Van Doorn I have been playing in Ibiza for years now and I have been with Judgement Sundays for the last six years. Each time Vicky Devine plays before me, I know I can arrive at the venue five minutes before my set knowing that she has done the perfect job. Vicky plays a perfect mix of quality grooves with euphoric breakdowns, none of which conflicts with what I want to do as a DJ. - Marco V Website - http://www.vickydevine.com Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/vickydevine Podcast- http://vickydevine.podomatic.com Beatport - http://dj.beatport.com/vickydevine You Tube - http://www.youtube.com/djvickydevine
