Audrey Napoleon mixes at the Yost August 3

Audrey Napoleon will be performing a high-energy set at the Yost in Santa Ana on August 3.

If Lady Gaga were a DJ she would be Audrey Napoleon. The tall, beautiful DJ, who has modeled for Italian Vogue, is known for her avant-garde style and theatrical DJ sets. Always pushing the limits, she has made it known that she is dedicated to pleasing the fans.

She delivers a high energy show, jumping, dancing and slithering across the decks in sinful debauch¬ery. In fact, Audrey was recently kicked offstage in Miami for “playing too hard.”
In a recent interview, Audrey stated she caught the DJ bug after witnessing an impressive set at the Avalon in Hollywood.

You will hear Audrey’s own voice on her tracks. She writes her own lyrics, performs her own vocals and has written music for films.

The Los Angeles-based DJ, whom some are calling the Queen of EDM, has released six singles in the past year, along with her EP Ornamental Egos.

On June 25, 2013, she released the track “Dope a La Mode” with an accompanying provocative video.

Tom Fall at the Yost in Santa Ana July 26

On July 26, the party will be in full throttle at the Yost Theater, featuring DJ Tom Fall on the decks. Tom Fall promises “one hell of a party,” as is consistent with all of his live sets. He says, “I’m excited for this show, too. SoCal really knows how to throw a party!”

A native of Finland, the 27-year-old producer began his journey into electronic music back when he was a teenager and he was introduced to the sounds by a friend. “I pretty much fell in love with that style of music straight away. I quickly started to wonder how I could make that kind of music myself, so I took it upon myself to figure it out.”

He says his creative process is pretty straight forward although sometimes when it comes to mixing tracks he tends to be a perfectionist. “I have a clear vision of what I want, and I go for it straight away. First I create the drums and percussion, and then I move on to the melody and other stuff. I’m definitely a big perfectionist, which often turns out to be something both good and bad for this process. Sometimes it’s helpful to be a little bit of a perfectionist, but sometimes it can slow you down.”

And what is his favorite equipment? For DJ-ing, definitely Pioneer. “You can’t go wrong with a pair of CDJ-2000 and a DJM-900,” he says. Okay, most of us lay people may not know what that is, but we do admit it sounds amazing on the dance floor. For producing, Fall swears by Cubase. “I’ve done every track I have ever released with it, and I’m not going to change that anytime soon. “

His single “iROK is always a crowd favorite. “iRok was such a huge hit for me last summer, and got so much support from the big guys like Knife Party and Nicky Romero, so everywhere I play it, it has a huge response in the crowd.” He promises to play iRok plus new tracks and remixes that will get the crowd moving on July 26. He will also be “floor testing” at least two new original tracks for the first time at the Yost and promises “one hell of a party. I hope to see you guys out there!”

The Yost Theater is located at 307 N. Spurgeon Street, Santa Ana, CA 92701.
