Princess Julia
Label: Kult Records
Artists Genre: Dance
Across the pond Princess Julia is resident at
London's Friday night at the Garage -
Heaven and Manchester's Holy City Zoo fortnightly on
Saturdays, as well as guesting
regularly at Ministry of Sound, The Loft, Love to
be, The Complex, Queer Nation, Club UK, Flesh,
Leeds Hard Times and a monthly
post at Rimmi's legendary Coco Rico. Having spent
years working in clubs, including the
door girl job at the Blitz club (see Boy
George's "Take it Like a Man") Julia Fodor
got her first DJ break residence at London's
first 'trendy' gay club The Daisy Chain and progressed
rapidly with a coveted spot at the
monthly glitterati bash Kinky Gerlinky. Princess
Julia's debut vinyl included here is produced by
Benji Candelario and Wayne Rollins
aka Swing 52 on KULT Records "Moist". What started
out as simply a "laugh" has grown in to a passion
for UK DJ, Princess Julia and it is apassion
that has resulted in success. Seeing
DJing as an extension to club life, Julia soon became
hooked on vinyl and she began to specialise
in a form of music that was coming through
from New York's gay scene. At the same time,
Patrick Lilley of High on Hope fame was
looking for a resident DJ for his new Sunday night
Queer Nation and Julia's career as a
scene DJ began to set its roots. From there
a more high-profile residency emerged when Julia took
behind the decks at one of the UK's
more influential monthly parties, Kinky Gerlinky,
where most of London's leading club and fashion
glitterati were to be found
partying. As word of mouth about Julia's fresh and
individual style spread, she soon found
herself guesting at some of the more discerning club
nights around the UK such as Venus
Nottingham, Vague in Leeds and Manchester's
highly influential Flesh. The distant decks of Europe
were the next to be conquered and
some of the highlights included visits to Rimini's
CoCo-Rico and Mazzoon in Venice. On the
production side, Julia's talents have not
gone unnoticed and she has worked on various
projects including a track, Moist Womanly
Needs on Kult USA; a Diss-Cuss remix, I Love To Be In
Love by Zero B and a remix she
produced herself on an independent label, Peach
- Sticking To My Groove. - In 1996 Julia released a
compilation on React records in conjunction
with DJ Sneak, Kinky Trax Collection Vol 4
(Includes "Moist") which sold considerably
well and found Julia promoting on Virgin Megastore
