DJ Tasha Droolette (Malaysia)
A classically trained pianist, Tasha Droolette started conducting youth orchestras at the age of 14 and discovered that she liked "being in control of the music". Her introduction to dance was Prodigy cassettes, but she quickly found her true passion in the music of trance artists like Paul Van Dyk, Armin van Buuren and Ferry Corsten.
"I am literally a bedroom DJ. I love to get up and do a two-hour mix every morning before I go to work," she says with a laugher. Her winning set (of the first DJ Awards Bedroom DJ competition), mixed in one take, demonstrates her ease behind the decks and infectious delight in dance music. Now she is eagerly anticipating her trip to Ibiza and the opportunity to have a master class with her hero, Paul Van Dyk.
"It is a dream come true. My friends keep asking 'how do you feel?' and I can't answer to it. I'm still speechless. I know that I will be in IBIZA for a reason... to represent my hometown and to share beautiful tunes with the world."
