BIOGRAPHY

Ida is the new pick of the bunch at John Dahlback’s imprint Pickadoll.
Her breathtaking debut EP „Disco Volante“ is one of the biggest summer
tunes of 2007. Ranked Top 20 in the German Dance Charts and even
Top 3 in Belgium the gorgeous Swede is about to conquer dance floors
throughout the world.
Ida has cut her teeth as a resident DJ at Stockholm‚s legendary Cocktail
Club where she progressively advanced the sophisticated style of her sets.
“I play deep house, tech house, funky techno, sometimes minimal and even
some electro. Basically, everything that touches my soul! I'll always keep
on playing underground electronic dance music”, she confesses.
Ida Engberg was born in a suburb of Stockholm, Sweden. Since then she
has moved around a fair bit, spending some time in Marbella as well as in
Ibiza, before settling on an island called Lidingö just outside Stockholm.
Eversince Ida started to select music there’s one question she gets asked
time and again: “How on earth did you decide to become a DJ ... being a girl
and all??” Actually, Ida never really decided to become a DJ ... It just happened!
“When I was 14 my first boyfriend was already DJing and I thought it was the
coolest thing. He taught me to mix but it wasn't until I was 18 that I really started
to play myself.” Ida’s first gig was as much as a surprise to her as to anyone.
The resident DJ at a friend’s club was sick and Ida just happened to be there
that night. "On the spur of the moment I said that I could play! My friend
looked at me slightly bemused and replied something like ’Yeah right’!
I still can't believe I managed to convince him to let me play that night. It was great.
I loved every minute of it!"
A few weeks later Ida got asked to start playing at one of the most infamous
after-hour clubs in Stockholm, The Spy Bar.
That was five years ago and a lot of things have happened since. Ida has
played alongside distinguished DJs like Roger Sanchez, Damian Lazarus,
Jennifer Cardini, David West, John Dahlbäck, Jesper Dahlbäck, Sebastian
Ingrosso, Eric Prydz, The Knife, Jo Mills, Joel Mull, Aril Brikha, Anja Schneider,
Özgur Can, Steve Lawler, Nic Fanciulli, Mistress Barbara… and the list continues.
"At the moment I'm resident at my favourite club in the whole world called
Neu Club. It's in the heart of Stockholm and everyone that loves great music
and raving should pay a visit there!"
