I first remember music grabbing me at the age of 5 when I cried until my parents bought me a violin. The original plan was to be a classical violinist but I ended up going into classical singing. I also studied viola and piano along the way - it was always going to be classical music of some kind. So it has come as quite a surprise for me to end up DJing and producing electronic music!

Karmel released her second single, ‘Trafalgar Square’, in May 2019, along with her rst music video and a synthpop remix by Fynn's Arcade. With a debut EP set for release later in the year, Karmel will also collaborate with international and local producers and develop her shows, both as a DJ and live performer, making for a jam-packed year ahead.

I’m really inspired by all the Aussie female DJs and producers that continue to kill it - BRUX, Nina Las Vegas, Anna Lunoe, Alison Wonderland… the list goes on and on. I listen to their music a lot and find it really inspiring. Alison Wonderland’s ‘Happy Place’, Anna Lunoe’s ‘Bullzeye’, BRUX’s ‘Belong’, and Nina Las Vegas’s ‘I Know How it Goes’ in particular I have played to death!
