I met Lauren Richards in Montreal while spinning at the vogue Vauvert, a bar located at the Hotêl Saint-Paul in the Old Port. She liked my music and we got chatting and gave me a demo that I played a few songs later* and to my amazement, the crowd went crazy.

We kept bumping into each other until she moved to NYC to push her music career to a new level.

She is also a fashion model represented by Specs agency.

What I really liked about her is the fact that she’s down to earth and found my not so funny jokes amusing and above all she took her career seriously which is a trait I always admire from like minded go-getters.

I swiped this pic from her FB without her permission. I have no idea if this will land me in jail because I assume that her pics are protected by copyright but if anyone sues me, I will claim temporary insanity

JaBig ♥ Lauren Richards

– * I NEVER play demos that people give me at DJ gigs. That’s because the singing, production or the combination of the two is 99.99999% irrelevant to my style (a lady once gave me an actually cool demo but it was sad folk songs that were more for late night listening than for partying) or the music is just terrible to put it bluntly. My reaction to Ms Richards handing me a demo was nonchalance but when I cued up the song in the headphone, I programmed it into my set right away although the production still needed some mastering.
