Today Milly De Mori, aka DJ millydemori, is considered one of the upcoming female international DJs in electronic music, and the nomination for the Best Italian Female DJ Award this year just highlights her steady professional progression.

Between club gigs, radio, production work and now her personal label SoundSelective Records, her career has been steadily growing to a rounder artist profile.
Swinging from minimal house all the way to tecno, millydemori's sophisticated and innovative touch is able to convey a certain "groove" yet unique underground mood to her DJ sets, well suited for both mainfloors or the smaller rooms.

While working in different clubs throughout Italy and internationally, currently Milly holds a residency at the legendary club Frau Marlen in Torre del Lago (Tuscany) and at the equally famous La Messa parties in Milan.
In addition her weekly radio show MILLYBAR on Radio M2O, Italy’s leader electronic radio station, has been growing to an impressive following in 4 years she’s been on air.

At the moment she’s working daily in the studio making music mostly solo, but Milly has recently started a couple of collaborations in Berlin with talented producer/dj Inexcess-Binary Choice (Haikai music, Sounds4Freaks), and in Milan with Luca Doobie (Anomaline).
This year, just in the first two quarters, about 9 tracks (between original material and remixes) have been released on labels like Presslab Records and Kritical Noise Records, and the Trittonic EP (Presslab) successfully reached N.1 in the Balance Record Pool Chart back in April 08.

DJ | PRODUCER | REMIXER

In 1999 Milly started SoundSelective.com, a pioneristic online-only-radio station, that webcasted some of the best house, deep house, teck house and tecno and offered alongside traditional programming rotation, weekly live webcast shows with audio and video straight from the DubLab LA’s studios.
Due to the WallStreet crash in 2001 and consequent fall of the Dot.coms', SoundSelective was forced to suspend the programming and streaming, and that left Milly De Mori free to pursue her DJ career and delve into music production. Today SoundSelective is a music service company catering to high-end fashion brands.

In 2004, as electronica was taking over Europe, Milly decided to relocate to Italy to be closer in contact with the house and minimal teck house contaminations coming from Germany and France. Since then she's been traveling and working regularly to Spain, Tunisia, Germany, London and Berlin.

Her career has taken Milly to share the decks with some of the best DJs like i.e. Francois K, Mauro Picotto, Miss Kittin, Alex Neri, Stefano Fontana aka Stylophinc, Paul Oakenfold, Presslaboys, Astro & Glyde, Lance Jordan or Elio Riso.
Here're some of the cities/countries where she's performed:
Tunisia (Cotton Club), Ibiza (Space, Privilege), London (Hub), Mexico City (Condesa DF Club Hotel), Paris (Pulp & Fashion events), NY (Centro Fly, Sullivan Room), Milan (Magazzini Generali, 400, La Messa parties, Codice a Barre & Fashion events), Germany (Karlshrue, Braunschweig), Florence (Tenax), Istanbul (Privat Party), Miami (WMC 2002-2006, Opium Garden, Living Room, Nikki Beach, Cafeteria), SF (Supper Club), Moscow (Club XIII), Turin (La Gare, Le Chalet), Bari (Divinae Follie, Clorofilla, Mavu'), Venice (Art Biennial Opening Party), Nevada- US (Burning Man), Atlanta (Eleven50, Riviera, Karma) and many many more...

Besides the underground club scene, Milly is also involved in the fashion scene, working & curating the sound for special events, presentations, catwalk shows or parties for a vast number of luxury brands like Prada, Gucci, Emilio Pucci, Calvin Klein, Christian Weber, Riccardo Tisci to name just a few.

In addition, Milly has formed a collaborative project called Three O together with sax player Amedeo Bianchi and trumpet player Marco Brioschi , making what's been defined as "electronic-jazzy lounge music on "acid"", with a broad spectrum of moods and grooves ranging from chilled to more uptempo ones.
Three O is working on completing their first album, of which 2 tracks have already been licenced for a Zoogami compilation, which released this past Winter 2008.

Fascinated more with tecky sounds and funky basslines than with vocals, Milly De Mori finds her roots in house music in the late 80's/beginning 90's, when hanging out in Ibiza she was first exposed to the 4/4's that changed her life.

Italian born living in Milan, Milly decided to move to NY in '93 where she spent 12 years, until 2005.
During her US stay Milly bloomed as a DJ artist, and the exposure to a effervescent 90’s New York dance scene with clubs like Sound Factory and Twilo (Danny Tenaglia and Junio Vazquez) or Body & Soul (with Francois K, Clausell and Krivit) or the teck house Matter-Form parties (with Adult Napper, Mr C) contributed to shape her sound to a true mix of electronic and organic elements and vibes, thus creating a very personal style that quickly found a great response in the hottest markets like NYC, Atlanta and Miami.
