DJ PUSH (real name Iga) has been djing around Poland since 2002 during which time she has became the best female d’n’b dj in the country. The reason behind it lies in her extremely precise beat matching technique alongside flawless tunes selection that always gets the dancefloors rocking. Originally from Katowice (Silesia; southern Poland), she currently lives in Krakow. She is interested in Culture of Far East and Chinese language and involved in yoga. Her first dj playouts took place in the famous Silesian club Zanzibar and she has never looked back since then. Not only a great DJ, she is also a stunningly looking woman with her long black dreadlocks perfectly matching the darkness of the music she plays, hence her "dark princess" nickname. Influenced by Teebee, Calyx and Klute she is now exploring the dark side of drum and bass, namely its neurofunk and trancestep subgenres.
In recent years Push was a resident DJ in a legendary underground ABSURD club in Krakow. Unfortunately the club doesn’t exist anymore but the people from Absurd are still deeply involved in shaping Polish club scene. She is currently a part of Absurd squad group of artists and promoters who are responsible for organising the fattest club gigs in this part of Poland.
Polish drum and bass female duo LAZY BITCHES comprises of DJ PUSH and MC JEAN. Click here to Learn more about LAZY BITCHES. Currently she is prepairing a new project. Opening night will take place 19th December 2008 in Warsaw.
Iga has played countless gigs around the country and abroad.

Kdyby jste se snažili opatřit si pár informací o DJ-ce Push, zjistíte, že to nebude úplně lehké. Stejně těžko budete hledat dj-ky v její rodné zemi – Polsku. Možná právě proto zde této mladé a moc dobře vypadající dívčině patří pomyslný trůn – trůn drumnbassové princezny. Alespoň to tvrdí. Její zálibou je navíc temnota zlomených beatů, takže „dark princess“ v tomto případě vystihuje vše.
Teebee, Klute a Calyx – k této trojici producentů má Push nejvřelejší vztah a už na první pohled je zřejmé, že její výběr bude pochoutkou pro příznivce tvrdších a rychlejších věcí. Se svou dobrou kamarádkou MC Jean také často Push vystupuje ve společných setech pod nickem Lazy Bitches. Více se můžete dozvědět na stránce www.djpush.com, kde mimo jiné naleznete i fotografie z akcí na kterých DJ-ka Push vystupovala například po boku Black Sun Empire, Logistics, Kosheen a dalších.
