Summary: Hello everybody! It’s monday and we wanna start the first week in november with a new CLR Podcast, this time with the swedish DJ Ida Engberg... Listen and enjoy! 27-year-old Ida Engberg started DJing hip hop and soul aged 14 after a boyfriend showed her how to mix, but she says “I had absolutely no plans on becoming a DJ, I just saw it as a new way to listen to and interact with music and I loved it!” After several residencies in the beginning, a move to Marbella brought 8 months of club gigs, followed by a season in Ibiza which inspired Ida musically like no other place. “I had fallen deeply in love with the minimal techno sound so it was perfect at the time. At the end of the season, Ida returned to Stockholm landing a top residency at Cocktail Club, the best underground club in Stockholm. “Stockholm is a great platform for electronic music. There are so many great producers and DJs living here and people really support each other.” Although DJing is her first love, it was only a matter of time before Ida tried her hand at production. Her first effort was the massive Disco Volante - signed by John Dahlbäck to his Pickadoll label and released in 2007 with a Sebastien Leger remix it became a huge hit all over the world, featuring on compilations from Ministry of Sound, Defected in the House and Pacha Ibiza. It charted across the whole of Europe. Two more tracks have followed on Get Physical and Pickadoll plus a remix for Dada Life. She can be found playing her brand of minimal, techno and tech house in clubs all over the world every weekend, and her love of what she does is obvious to all. Playing unplanned sets allows her to respond to the crowd, she’s rocked parties and clubs. Lately she also took part in the Drumcode parties with Swedish companion Adam Beyer. Ida started to work with AM Only and in November and December 2009 she’s doing her second tour through the U.S. which she’s really looking forward to! 1.
