Anthea’s musical influences come from

through to tougher, darker, electronic funky beats, depending
on the when and where she’s playing.
Anthea’s talents have seen her move
into the television arena, taking part and reaching the final
of ITV’s Joy Of Decks documentary competition
2003. This saw 400 hopeful UK DJ’s battle it out for
a chance to win a year’s management contract and 8 gigs
within the Smirnoff Ice tour, over the course of 6 episodes.
Anthea made it to the final 4 where she was paired up with
a mentor, widely respected pioneer in UK dance music,
Mr C. This programme has gained her a huge following
and massive support from the viewers.
Anthea was assistant manager at Flying
Records London Soho store. She could be found behind
the counter enthusiastically selling tunes and helping visiting
Dj’s and music lovers expand their record collections!
Flying had been at the forefront of London’s dance scene
since 1991 and was the stable to many of today’s famous
producer/DJs including Lofty and Dr
Bob Jones (Chillifunk) X-Press 2’s Rocky & Ashley
Beedle, Clive Henry of Peace Division, Dean Thatcher (West
London Deep) Brandon Block and so on. Anthea can
now be found helping out in the office at Chillifunk
Records, the label dedicated to “Soulful Music
For Funky People” and the airwaves on House FM. She
now works at Blackmarket Records London’s
biggest independent record shop.
Mr C quoted recently… ‘This
girl has really got the groove. Anthea delivers nice, long
drawn out mixes, with great work of the EQ’s creating
that third – track in the mix. Her subtlety oozes soul
and sophistication that most of her male counterparts can
only wish for. Her music selection is deep and funky, yet
totally cutting edge. Many female Dj’s use their sex
as a gimmic, not Anthea, this girl’s the genuine article.
Watch the rise and rise of a true future star”.
