French born and now Berlin based Bloody Mary has been a staple name on the underground artist radar since 2005. Having worked with a robust set of labels including Sender, Contexterior, Einmaleins and Toys for Boys before starting up her now own imprint Dame Music in 2010, Mary is responsible for A&R’ing some of the finest releases to come out of Berlin lately. An undeniable presence on the international DJ circuit, Mary plays worldwide as well as hosting her own Dame Music nights; fast becoming one of Watergates best parties. With Dame Music’s ‘Klub Klub Elite Vol.1’ about to drop on Dame Music, the anticipated vinyl boasts Mary herself on the A-side featuring Bandele, Londoner jozif with ‘Stcoke’ and on the flip; Axel Bowman’s ‘Amazon Love’ and Attan featuring Jonny Cruz...Oh, and she’s also this week’s MEOKO podcaster...The Not So Serious Session 2 with Bloody Mary - Will you be part of the elite?
What’s the point in...
...politics. Sometimes I really don’t get it, especially at the moment in my home country of France. I’ve been living in Germany for years and to view what has happened in France politically from an outsiders perspective makes me crazy.
The last album I bought...
...is the self titled ‘The Modern Lovers’. I’m totally in love with this album, especially with the song ‘She Cracked’. I love rock music just the same as electronic.
When I grow up I want to be...
...married with one or two kids, living in peace and harmony in a big apartment. I want to have a dog and live in the sun, wherever that place may be in this world.
The first set I ever played...
...holds good memories! It was in the south of France at the Spartacus Club. I was afraid but at the same time super excited. I never thought at that time that one day it would be my full time job. Mixing has been my passion for so many years and passion is the motor for my work.
I’m sorry for...
...not seeing my family more often and my closer friends in France. I miss my Mum so much and it’s difficult to be far away from her. My job is full time, so I don’t have too much time to visit them, well thank God we have internet! I’ve promised her to come home more often this year.
If I wasn’t a musician...
...I’d probably say a photographer or a fashion designer right now. As a child I would have said a singer though! I need a job where I can explore creativity just as I do within my job in music now :)
