Up and Coming Powerhouse Talent
Chicago, IL -
CHICAGO, IL - Voted Up and Coming DJ for 2002 by Circuit Party Insanity, Alyson continues to gain nationwide recognition. Chicago first discovered this rising star during her appearance at Hydrate Chicago, Saturday August 23rd.
Ralphi Rosario says Alyson is “one of the Fiercest DJ’s on the circuit.” Abel said Alyson “is INCREDIBLE!”
Profile: Alyson Calagna discovered a love for music at an early age. Part of her childhood was spent living in Aberdeen, Scotland at which time she was first exposed to house music. This music sparked something inside of her and from the first moment she heard it, she was hooked. By the age of 16, she was living in Lafayette, Louisiana when she found a natural calling to the turntables. Within a short time, she was granted the opportunity for a residency at Images Nightclub due to her increasing popularity and sound. At Images she developed her playing style and honed her skills with the tables.
In 1998, she won second place in the DDK spin off in Atlanta, Georgia and had a seat on the panel for the Nightclub and Bars Convention in Orlando. In April 1999, she won first place in the WPOW Power 96.5 spin off in Miami, Florida. Her prize was a spot on a weekly radio show where she became a Hot Mix DJ showcasing her talents for the residents of Miami. Ready to return home to Louisiana, she accepted a residency at 735 Nightclub in New Orleans.
After one year at 735, the buzz about this powerhouse talent began to spread and as a result, she was booked at various nightclubs on the East Coast. This exposure was just the beginning for the now jet setting jock. The dance floors she has conquered include: Salvation-South Beach, Eagle-Pittsburgh, Fusion-Atlanta, Crobar-South Beach, Heaven-Orlando, Velvet Nation-Washington D.C., Release-San Francisco, and Level-South Beach. She has also spun at Circuit Events such as Change of Seasons in Atlanta, Masquerade in Minnesota, Southern Decadence and Halloween in New Orleans, White Party and Winter Party in Miami. She is currently a Billboard reporter and has been voted Up and Coming DJ for 2002 by Circuit Party Insanity.
Alyson has made a name for herself by infusing her signature long overlays, fierce sampling and seamless looping to create a style of her own. She also uses her strong intuition to connect with the dance floor and atmosphere of the room. Alyson's ability to work the EQ's and her unique way of adding effects on the fly proves that she has what it takes to be a future producer. From global sensual grooves to tribal rhythms, this up and coming DJ is making her mark on the music world.
