Having studied music since the tender age of 13, Liz Cirelli has muisc well & truly running through her veins. Originally a classically trained musician, it was at the age of 18 that she was first introduced to electronic music. She has been hooked ever since.
Liz is known for her
musical diversity and is currently working on 4 different dance projects: Liz Cirelli, Liz Cirelli & Minski, Dextress & Plastiq Chic.
Liz's first solo release Ultra Violet on Loulou Records,
gained support from the likes of John Acquaviva, Kolombo,
Tony Senghore, Noir, Kid Dub & Tim
Green. Since then, Liz's tracks have received full support from Martin Eyerer, Stephan Hinz, Dubfire, Nick Warren, Mark Knight, Dumb Dan & Henry Saiz to name but a few.
During 2009 Liz began working on a
violin-infused techno project with the hugely talented violinist, Minski
Revolver. Experimenting with a fusion of classical and electronic music, they are
producing a variety of innovative and captivating tracks. Their first EP came out on Henry Saiz’s Natura Sonoris imprint and was supported
by Pete Tong, Laurent Garnier, Hernan Cattaneo, Sasha, Digweed, Agoria &
Nick Warren, with Cattaneo placing the title track of the EP,
Shiver, at no.4 in his December 2009 charts. Their second EP is also out now on Mirabilis. With demand increasing & creativity flowing they are now excitedly forming their much-anticipated live act.
As Dextress, Liz has two
releases on Definitive Recordings - Penthouse Bitch
& Perverted Ways (both collaborations with Kid Dub).
Perverted Ways
made its way into the Beatport Top 20 electro house charts and reached Top
40 in the tech house charts.
Alongside dear friend & fellow DJ Popcox, Liz produces as Plastiq Chic. Centred around nu disco, 80's-influenced French house & the more commercial side of dance music, their debut release is due out later this year. There are also plans for the formation of a larger than life live act after the summer. Watch this space.
In addition to her career in the world of dance music, Liz enjoys a great passion for film scoring and writing music for media and has recently completed an advertising project for Diesel. Also in her portfolio are numerous short film scores & a documentary about artist & director Julian Schnabel. Her list of past clients have included: Nokia, Rivet Global Marketing UK, Sky TV, L’Oreal, Redken, The Trainline, Berlotti Shoes, Warburton's, The Dutch National Rail, Forsblum Art Gallery (Helsinki) & You Know Creative Solutions Ltd.
