DJ Lucy: Igniting the Dance Floor at O Beach Dubai
Meet DJ Lucy – the beat-dropping powerhouse behind O Beach Dubai’s electrifying atmosphere. Her journey from music-obsessed kid to crowd-commanding DJ embodies our Muse ethos. Let’s dive into what makes Lucy tick.
From Bedroom Beats to Center Stage
Lucy’s love for music isn’t just a job – it’s in her DNA. “I’ve always wanted to be in music since I was young,” she says. “My dad used to produce music and he was the first person to teach me about making music myself.”
This early spark turned into a full-blown inferno. “I was always the child at school bringing in the newest tracks before they were big, it was an obsession.”
Breaking Barriers, One Beat at a Time
In a male-dominated industry, Lucy doesn’t just survive – she thrives. Her advice to aspiring female DJs? “Don’t focus on how people perceive you, focus on how you feel about yourself. Trust your instincts and don’t be afraid to be different.”
Women Inspirations
Lucy’s journey has been fueled by other women like Annie Mac, Chelina Manuhutu, and Alisha. “Annie’s ability to discover new music and connect with audiences is incredible,” Lucy shares. “Chelina and Alisha have shattered stereotypes, showing the world the power of women in electronic music.”
Their boldness and artistry remind Lucy that being unapologetically different is a strength. “They inspire me to push boundaries and create space for others to shine,” she says. With every set, Lucy channels their influence, empowering others while honoring the women who paved the way.
Risk-Taker, Dream-Maker
Lucy’s boldest move? Leaving London for Ibiza. “I already had a great base and lots of work in London, so it was a risky move,” she admits. “But it was certainly the best thing I did. I couldn’t imagine my life not here.”
The Art of the Set
For Lucy, DJing isn’t just about playing tracks – it’s about crafting experiences. “When I create a set, I think about the journey I want to take my audience on,” she explains. “I always like to set the start out with a slower, more funky BPM to set the tone, then as the set progresses I’ll build the tempo up and really get the party going.”
Success, Redefined
Forget fame and fortune. For Lucy, success is simple: “Success is fulfilment in what you do. I always say you should aim for *happy*, and whatever happy brings you – whether it’s playing to big crowds, playing a certain genre of music, or anything else. Work out what brings you *happy* and be obessed for that.”
The Muse Effect
Gemma Charters, Director of Brand and Events, puts it best: “You can see her connection with people via the power of her music choices and her energy in how she engages with them. Her genuine love for music cements that this isn’t just a job for Lucy – this is her passion.”
Your Turn to Shine
Lucy’s mantra? “Every great artist was once an amateur.” So what are you waiting for? Let Lucy’s beats awaken your inner muse at O Beach Dubai.
