First turntables more than 6 years ago
So it’s the turn of Alice April, who bought her first turntables 6-7 years ago. “I always loved the middle of the night,” says the DJ. I worked in nightclubs from my first jobs. I love music, thanks to my parents who both play music. I ended up buying turntables and practicing alone in my room. »
